Kitchen Envy
– But Not LED Envy
I envy my
friend’s new kitchen. Double wall ovens,
beautiful cherry finish cabinets, what seems like acres of counter space. But no LEDs.
Deep double under-counter-hung sinks have me up to my elbows when I’m
helping her prepare veggies for the many parties they have – impromptu and
planned. I’ve been trying to persuade
her with the positives of LEDs and told her basically to “get over it” when it
comes to initial cost. It would make
everything in her kitchen sparkle even more than it already does.
Many
fixtures appropriate for kitchen lighting are appropriate in the bathroom
lighting I talked about yesterday. Her
kitchen has recessed lighting, which is pretty much just a backup to the
natural light that floods in from outside through a large window that spans
about a quarter of the wall space on and faces the backyard.
In the
dining area over the table is a beautiful chandelier. When I look around her house I just see the
potential for LED. I’ll talk her into it
one day, especially since she and her husband run a telecom business and are up
on the latest technologies.
The only
things missing from her home are track and pendant lights, but I haven’t seen
many spaces in her home that would allow such things. Still, pretty much all of the fixtures in
their home could handle as standard “household” (A19) LED bulb.
So. I’ll
just keep pushing and pushing until she caves.
