the road can and will happen. but acting and treating it properly can be the difference in healthy and sick and sometimes life and death. no food is worth dying for. no food is worth being in pain for. no food is worth a permanent problem. trim white, i'd go with a nice gray on the walls. let me know if you'd like me to choose a gray color.
you can definitely reuse the curtains, they look great with the table & chairs. also the mirror would look perfect in that nook if you choose a short cabinet or chest.
