Do you REALLY want to see a sink full of dishes?

Jusr get a cover for the other two, and you will have extra counter space, Linda got one for the house at a flee market, Shippshawanta Ind.
(for give the spelling) works great.

Nice kitchens!

So many holes have been drilled and cut into Mouse that I have no fear of drilling a few more. Though I used tape where I can.

Mine is two-burner, and I made a cover so I could put the Keurig up in that space, which in the Campster is very, very small. (Due to the big bed!) To tell the truth, unless I am off the grid I use the microwave and Keurig and never use the stovetop at all. When I do use it it is for teakettle or just a single frying pan at once.

Nice kitchen!

But I can see why you might want one that is more comfortable to use in the rainy weather.

Nobody said a kitchen has to be neat....

Hi,
Here's a photo of our "working" kitchen. We've been living in the trailer now for over a month so you can forgive us a little clutter
The shelves behind the stove are from Walmart. They are quite sturdy and just sit on the counter. They fold to practically nothing to be stored while on the move. Dirty dishes to the left
Fridge is under the drawer on the right.
No additions or modifications. Standard Escape kitchen.
Phil

I wanted a solid surface counter but currently out of the budget. So I bought 2 matching 18x24 cutting boards and screwed them together. This gave me a nice 'thickness' to the stove area. I also bought a little glass cutting board which fits over my sink perfectly. the upper cabinet I found at an antique store. It gives me just enough extra storage. The lamps at each end were some old colonial sconces that I 'craftied' up with sponge pain and small shades.

OK, since a while back, I was asked to post how the hubby engineered a counter extension for us in the Uhaul, I found those pix and one more of our kitchen as a whole. So I will post these images in a couple of posts. Our closet is part of the kitchen. It holds our microwave and a set of drawers with silverware and microwave dishes in it.

Couple more closeups of the support.

So that is my kitchen. That counter extension has been great! When not doing the dishes or drying the dishes (The water drains into the sink.), we flip the sink cover over the sink. Our coffee pot fits between the stove and sink. Truthfully, we have not used the stove since we bought the Coleman stove. Kevin uses it outside to cook. So the plastic cover stays over the stove all the time. All covers are just cutting boards from Walmart. The support is a cut-up cutting board from Walmart with the hinge hardware bought at the local hardware store.

Cindy / Kevin - clever the way the counter extension doubles as a sink cover.
