Happy Holidays!!
I hope everyone has having a happy holiday season!! I just wanted to give you a quick update on life in the Beantown Baker Household.
First things first, I got my blog redesigned!! It has been in the works for some time now, and everything got delayed a bit due to our move to Cincinnati, but the new site is up and running. Stop by and check it out. I hope you love it as much as I do!
Second, an update on the move. A couple weeks ago, Hubby and I made the drive from Boston to Cincinnati. We had a sunny day, very little traffic, and made really good time. We lived out of a hotel for another week before finally moving into a two bedroom apartment. We are starting to get settled – I’ve even baked in my new kitchen already. We bought a tree and got it decorated last night. Just in time for Christmas!

Our plan for the rest of the year is to relax, enjoy some delicious food, hang out with some friends, and then head to Illinois for my sister Brooke’s wedding on New Years Eve! I’ll see you guys in 2013! Happy Holidays!!
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
I LOVE those spice jars! And the storage for it. I wonder if we could do something like that in our kitchen….
Before I read the sprinkles comment, I was uber eager to find out what spices you were rocking over the sink! Great idea 🙂
Love the idea! What a great use of the space. Thank you for sharing.
your spices were the first thing I noticed when you started showing pics. I love it! I sort mine in alphabetical order, so it’s a little easier for me to find them.
I wanted to alphabetize, but Hubby isn’t the most organized person so I’m not sure how long they would stay organized since he does most of the cooking in the house.
What a great idea! Yesterday when I was looking at the pictures I thought it was tile. (thats the blonde in me) =)
I love it! That is such a neat idea.
I LOVE it! I’m intending to “revamp” my kitchen this spring and add a back splash but wasn’t certain what other changes I might want to add. I’m going to show this to my honey and keep this in mind. Thanks!
Oh, and Happy New Year!

Your renovation posts have me dreaming of updating our kitchen. I absolutely LOVE the backsplash and shelf!
This is a fabulous idea. I love how you color coordinated the different spices across the shelf. It’s very practical and gives your kitchen a very stylish presentation.

I love that idea! I looks so great with all of the different colors of the spices and sprinkles. And talk about handy, they are so easy to reach!
Love your kitchen posts…the spice & sprinkles jars are what stands out to me..aside from the backsplash. You have such a cutesy kitchen!!!
Oh my! I love love love love it!!! I just sent and IM to my boyfriend that said “I want to do this in our kitchen”…haha.
That is a gorgeous display of spices… I would love to do something like that!
I love that idea! The spices add such good color to your kitchen (and extra space, i would guess!).
Thank you ahead of time for building this in my kitchen when I get my own place.
From all your renovation posts…the spice jars are my favorite. I can’t believe there are 60! I wish I could figure out some place to do that!
I love your spice display! It must be so convenient to have everything right there whenever you need it. AND it looks fabulous in the room!
Spice Rack
I’m amazed on the way you created your own spice rack. It really complements your kitchen design, much more it helps in organizing various spices.
