progress

Contrary to all appearances, we have not gone mad over here at the Lo. household. Over the next few weeks, all kitchen cabinets will be refaced, the countertops and backsplash will be tiled, and the Lo. kitchen will become a whole new world. We owe it all to my parents (who made and painted the cabinet doors and will help install the tile), and our tax refund. So far: top cabinet doors ripped down, crown molding and cornice ripped down, horrible buzzy florescent light taken down, old crappy range hood taken down, cabinet trim sanded, fine layer of dust everywhere, cabinet trim painted, new cabinet doors installed, rad new pendant light installed, sparkly new range hood installed. Oh, and cleanup. I'm still working on that.
