Well an update,
Last night I cooked the whole dinner in my new working kitchen!!! It still needs a little work yet, finishing up the paint, backsplashes and lighting! We got all the appliances installed last week and finally the stove on Saturday, then they set the floor Saturday and grouted it yesterday! We have been busy! I should really say Wrigmans been busy! I was just the bucket lady yesterday, keep the clean water coming for the almost black grout! When it is completed I will post pics. It is sooooo nice!!!!
Only tv dinners that tasted so-so were Stouffers and Lean Cuisine! Guys had the Claim JUmper ones so i'm not sure how they were but they said ok, we ate out and fast food mostly, and that was getting to be old, although i was able to use my electric fry daddy to fry and boil foods and the BBQ was a big help too, so i did cook a bit too, it was just a pain cleaning dishes until the new sink was operable! but now so is the dishwasher!!
We were out of our kitchen for almost 6 weeks, 2 weeks for demo and contacter stuff, 2 weeks for cabinet installation and finishing, 2 weeks for countertops. 2-3 more weeks for us to finish it all up (including the dining room)!
well just thought I'd post some final pics of the now year old kitchen! I love it and can't believe i lived with the old one for so long! But first a few old ones to refresh the memory!!!
