The Simpsons kitchen comes to life in Calgary home

When it comes to remodelingtheir kitchen, the only thing MarciaAndreychukand Joel Hamilton can't agree on is who came up with the ideato make itlook just likeMarge's from The Simpsons.

Here's how that conversation played out:

Marcia: "This idea just popped into my head and I pitched it to Joel kind of as a way to get his buy-in to spend money on doing some renovations."

Joel:"I think I was the one who threw it out there, started the volley."

Marcia: "Oh no. Oh nooooo."

The Calgary couple are huge fans of The Simpsons, but Hamilton is the bigger fan.

"Every winter I watch every single episode that's been released," he said.

"The Simpsonsfor meis actually a baby blanket. If I'm not feeling very well, if I'm depressed,if I have a bad day I come home and pop The Simpsons on and I'm 10-years-old [again] and everything isalright."

Before starting renovations,Andreychuk frameda photograph of Marge Simpson'sdomestic abode to her own kitchen.

After that, she went searching online for corn cob-patterned fabric for thecurtains.She lucked out and found the perfect matchand sewed themherself.

Pulling them shutto show off their full effect,Hamilton proudly admits they're "tacky." Then he spews out some Simpsons 101 that thecartoon family neveractuallycloses their kitchen curtains.

"Ned Flanders always has his window to get into the shot, right?Hi-diddly-ho!'"

After that,Andreychuk jokes they're going to transform their basement into Moe's Tavern.
