Lighting the Flame
Today was th
e day. We removed the protective blue coating from our new appliances, tested and turned on the gas, and tried out our new range for the first time. It is beeeau-tiful! Also today we're having the faucet, garbage disposer, and plumbing installed, and tonight we're going to move the fridge into place. Although it's been *fun* having the refrigerator in the living room right near our front door (NOT), I think I will like having it in the kitchen better... Then next week I will paint our new kitchen island black (can't wait for that - it's gonna look so great!), then the cabinet knobs & drawer pulls go on, then the new light fixtures, then some other miscellaneous trim, then viola... it's a brand new kitchen! Photos will be posted sometime soon.
Oh man has this been a looooooonnnnnnnngggg couple of months without a kitchen, but I am so excited for the end result! Even though we're not completely finished, tomorrow I am going to roast some butternut squash and other veggies and make a big pot of soup. It's one of our favorite things, so I thought it fitting to make this the first meal cooked on our new range! It's gonna be good.
All right, back to work! Have a lovely weekend ya'll.
