My house has a nook. Technically, it’s a breakfast or a dining nook, but I didn’t put a table in there, so no eating terms can correctly be associated with it. I decided I needed this space for storing all sorts of stuff, so home to bookcase and cabinet and vacuum it became; and besides, there wasn’t room for more than just a small table there anyway. I prefer eating dinner in front of the TV when alone, and there’s great plans for a dining area that will be discussed in a later entry…

Anyway, the nook. It’s small, and it’s between the living room, bathroom and kitchen, but it seems to qualify as a room in it’s own right. The nook:
A bookcase, metal cart and mop in a corner I have a sponge mop there. Isn’t that classy?

An upright vacuum and two plastic folding chairs in a corner, with a small painting above them The other side of the nook looks about the same. Yeah, I’m short on space to hide things like vacuums. Note the two folding chairs I keep around for guests. Cheap at IKEA!

But look back at that first pic. That shows what’s really important at my place:
