Kitchen Update

The kitchen update is creeping alone. The counter tops are here and my husband installed the small one next to the stove but our contractor will not able to do install the larger one until sometime this week. The big storm set him back as emergency repair jobs created by falling branches has taken up almost all his time. We have been doing other things though, including replacing the new sink. It was guaranteed to last a lifetime and to never chip, crack, or burn but within days after we installed it a crack appeared. Fortunately, we bought it from a company who stands behind its products. We received a replacement sink about a week after we made our complaint.

I have not spray-painted the porch chairs yet but I have spray-painted the wrought iron stair railings on the porch a beautiful glossy black. It turned out to be one those "now why didn't I do this sooner" kind of projects. Our other project, repainting the house stucco, is still on hold but we did pick out a new color. Third time's the charm, hopefully.

Now, since you have been waiting so patiently for kitchen remodel photos and since it taking longer than any of use expected, I've decided it is time to show at least one section of the remodel that is almost completed. The only thing left to do on this section is to put the trim around the bottom of the new cabinet.  So, what do you think?
