MummyLee 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2007 I only got 3 words to describe this ' 没马跑 ' (bo beh zao in hokkien) a.k.a 'no horse run'. Mummylee I tihnk I need a built-in ladder for that kind of cabinet .Help! Jokes apart , this kitchen looks like a porsche carrera gt . hi seanster.. Hahaha...thanks!! Oh high is good since we have 2 kiddos and our heights are ok for the cabinet.. luckily We really love how it looks in the end actually our contractor asked us to go for black flooring which we almost did and i believe will be nicer but i was afraid that it might be too dark... kinda chicken out but regretting alittle now.. Anyways the creme flooring aint that bad lah... at least its easier to spot the xiao qiangs!! is that a chihuahua you've got there? very cute!! its got a pink nose??
