Do You Love Your Kitchen?

Survey says there’s room for improvement in most households.

Only 5% of Americans say the kitchen is their favorite room in the house. Even if you don’t have plans to tap into your bank account for a cabinet remodel or high-end appliances, there are quick things you can do to start feeling better about your kitchen space.

Move your table. Slide your table to the window and eat breakfast there each morning. People who get the most bright light early in the day report better moods.

No windows? No problem. Hang a picture of a landscape or seascape. Researchers say looking at nature (even if it’s a painting or a photograph) can reduce stress and anxiety.

Buy a bouquet. Keep bright flowers on hand to add quick color to the room. Also, put out a bowl of colorful fruit to inspire healthy eating.
