		<description>Tom, 

I have recently sold my house that had a kitchen I loved with Kraftmaid honey spice birch cabinet, natural color wood flooring, stainless appliances and medina brown granite.  

My finace&#039;s kitchen is not what I like ideally in a kitchen.  It is fairly outdated.  It is about 10X12 and has a large bay window that faces west.  Today there is only a doorway that connects it with the dining room, although we may be tearing that down in the future.  The dining room has neutral walls, built-in china cabinets - from the 1920&#039;s and our table is cherry.  

My biggest challenge is that he has newer white appliances that it wouldn&#039;t make sense for us to replace.  The house is in an area that was over-inflated in price at the time he purchased the home.  We plan to stay for at least a few years, but want to watch the amount of money we sink into the house, while still making it a place we like to entertain in.  The appliances that I really want are over $10,000.

What color granite, sink and cabinets would you recommend to go with white appliances - understanding if we stay for a long time we will most likely convert to stainless?

Warm Regards,
