Thank you I am leaning towards white grout. We want a very tight grout line. But I think I prefer a gap between counter and door frame.. I am not sure i would like the tile extending past the countertop

Your new June sure is loving it's new home! Heart and Soul looks good, too. I wonder if your teaspoons will have more elongated leaves being in more sun than the rounder ones I think happen in more shade? I'm not surprised to see the whites burning on High Society. It will be interesting to see what acclimates to more sun next year. I have one in sun that burns every year, and it just dawned on me to move it, lol. Ironically, it's Sun Power. It looks great in spring, which I suppose is why I've left it there, but it can't take the harsh sun we have by summer.

The problem appears to be the dining set and console - neither of which are the best shape for your room, and the mirror appears "heavy" in the space. Are you willing to get a different dining table? I think something round, around 60" or larger if the room allows, would solve your problem and look great in the room. Once you have that in place, you can decide whether to center the cabinet with the wall or that table. You might try centering it, with one of the chairs on either side of it to "lengthen" the console to better fit the wall. Then, opt for a light, bright piece of art instead of the mirror and see how much better the room looks.

Sunday roast chicken with tarragon stuffing that’s trying to escape the bird. You can tell DH prepared the vegetables because the carrots are in rounds which I never do. He made the gravy as well.
