Bloom Where You're Planted Farm

Yesterday the temps rose into the lower 70s, and when I went outside in the morning I noticed the first little green sprouts peeking out in the flower bed on the south side of the house.  That was all it took for me -- I had Spring Fever, big time.

I was itchin' to get out there and accomplish SOMETHING, ANYTHING toward our goals for the season.  It was too muddy to do much, but I headed out to the schoolhouse with my tape measure, graph paper and camera.  One of our projects for the year will be to turn this...

 ...into a kitchen for concessions.  Making it especially difficult is the fact that this little 7.5 ft. x 10.5 ft. room has two doors, one window, and will need a pass-through service opening.  I think I've finally got it figured out, and the contractor/hubby didn't have any complaints about my drawings when I showed him last night.

In case you haven't been to the farm yet or haven't visited in the past year, here are a couple more photos of the schoolhouse.  It was our old neighborhood school, and my mom, who grew up here on the farm, went to school in this building.  It was moved a couple times and ended up at our county fairgrounds.  We had it moved to the farm last spring and spent the summer renovating & restoring everything (except for the room above, which was originally the entryway and stairwell.)
