Sorry to ask you to open in paint and enlarge :(

Anyway, please see the upper left corner from the stove. I guessing an easy reach upper won't work because of the swing needed ...does it hit the range hood? Open shelves instead or a corner pot rack setup? It'd be nice to have some cupboard for oil/spices etc but I can't seem to make the corner work out. I may also have to shrink the interior of the U a couple inches to give more to the path past the dining porch step.

Anything else look amiss? Thanks.

Can anyone resize and repost? I can't figure it out!

Better?

goodness. There!

What I like about the prep sink on the peninsula is that it can be accessed from the other side, too. That would be handy and multipurpose. The other thing I was liking was having the trash accessible from both sides of the peninsula. I found some slides that go both ways so you could pull it out from either side. AND with the prep sink on the peninsula, I can visit with my DH while chopping and what not. The reason I moved the stove to that end wall was then I get a long 'pantry' wall and the shallower depth cuts down on the 'tunnel' feeling when entering the kitchen from the entry. BUT... as always, nothing is set in stone and maybe I need to relook at the stove placement.
