"Poggenpohl Zebra Wood Cabinets" may very well be the last words that slip through my lips. Maybe "Poggenpohl Zebra Wood Cabinets". Maybe "Where are my diamonds?" Most likely "Sorry."

Anyway I got another eye full of the Poggenpohl Zebra (or maybe Tiger - what's the difference?) Wood Cabinets this evening since the Park Ave showroom is near my Ukrainian lady of wax. They sure is nice. And extortion so Felix tells me. They are basically a whole wall of cabinets out of one slab of wood. If this makes no sense to you, press your face against the showroom on Park and 21st. Wait ten minutes and then remember to exhale.

Still, I can only marvel at the arrogance of the German kitchen designers. It was a month ago I first saw them in a state of disarray, please pardon our appearance sort of mess. A month further on and the show room is still a shambles with more than half of the kitchens therein still needing to be finished. What does that say to someone thinking of installing them? Something like we can't get our shit together to finish the showroom in a month? They should have at least boarded up the windows. It looks like a crap house in there.

One thing which caught my eye today however was the built into the wall unit cappuccino maker. Stainless steel and sitting nicely next to the oven. Holy crap fuck. I've never seen one those in restaurant let alone someone's kitchen. I want one for my next life.

That and my diamonds.

Feast your eyes on this my lovelies

Hey Sac, didn't you get one of these?
