Looking for input/ideas on what to paint my kitchen. I've been revisiting this over and over and am just stuck.

Currently, I have SW Blonde up but don't like it-haven't liked it up for 3.5 yrs now. I think it's too intense or too similar to my cabinet coloring. I'm want to create a relaxed feeling and not a color terribly bright for this room gets direct sunlight all afternoon.

this room opens up my dining room which is painted SW Ivoirie. and where the 2 rooms meet, you can see my bedroom-which is painted Providence Olive (BM) and you can see our familyroom which is painted Raspberry Truffle and Putnam Ivory both BM. I am looking for a color for the kitchen that will compliment my diningroom color (SW Ivorie)

A BM representative suggested a green for the kitchen- but I was nervous about having too many rooms green (my bedroom and a hall bath are painted Provident Olive) and having too many different colors. Now, I just want a relaxing and 'fun' color for kitchen that will go with my diningroom (my diningroom height varies from 9 ft ceiling upto 11 foot ceilings-too much of a pain to repaint and I like the color). will you paint the kitchen a green regardless of fact I have other rooms green? I am not opposed of doing an accent wall (was thinking of a purply shade (that is picked up in a chandelier and quilt that is now hanging in a dining room that is not shown in pix)

The link to the Photobucket album- you will see the kitchen and my dining room - the floor, cabinet color and wall color along w/ my counters.

Thanks to all for any thoughts/ideas/direction/ photoshopping!!
