This kitchen really needed some help. I replaced the worn pergot flooring with oak, built two pantries on the empty wall with a wine rack, shelving, and cabinet in between, replaced all old 80’s cabinets, replaced all appliances, added crown molding, replaced the laminate countertop with a granite countertop, replaced the old backsplash with a new marble one, replaced the old single fluorescent light with recessed lighting and two light fixtures, put in an island by using two base cabinets and a butcher block top, and finished it off with beadboard and a new coat of paint.

Prescriptive codes don't address the connection at less common angles, so base the connection off more typical ones using bolts, structural screws, blocking, and steel tension ties.
