It's what immediately occure to me. You have to sell it to the  
missus, that's all - and I know...I live with a woman who is VERY  
resistant to changing anything once it's in place. I once built a  
small kitchen extension behind a wall (into a cellar space) and then  
demolisehe the wall while she was out shopping so it was 'voila -  
fait accompli!'
Tell her that the fridge will now be opposite the stove - convenient  
as it reduces movement, traffic. Point out that the phone and desk  
area will now be directly accessible from the dining room - ideal for  
setting up the next course for a dinner party. I would tend to  
dispense with the desk myself and use a skinny benchtop there as the  
drawers might be inconvenient (blocking the doorway when opened (tho'  
not as badly as the fridge!).
