Kitchen Remodel...

This was the beginning of a terrible messy job of remodeling our kitchen. Norv and John Schlabach did the work of ripping off the ceiling and putting a new one on, insulating the new part (Samantha did that, crawling around up there) and then installing new cabinets. But before that could be done , they had to move the window, put drywall mud on the walls to cover up and blend together all the different wall coverings, rip out old cupboards, move the water lines for the dishwasher and new sink.... and this was all done in 5 days!


This was open to the outside for a few days, so we stayed at Norv's folks while this was being done... see the original trailer roof shape?



Here is the finished product! I got my curtains hung and the only thing missing is the microwave hood that may never be! I'd like to actually put a shelf in it's place.






Looking toward the living room from the island...I love my shelf that just happened to appear after the ceiling got ripped off, the end wall had to be butted up against the new addition wall and the beam was there already
Working in here is a pleasure now that i have some more room to work . With all the bodies that are in the kitchen sometimes, we needed the space . And the best part , i got to haul all my old stuff out of storage and display it....

  2. Lovely Kitchen. I like the sunshine pouring in on those pictures. Your shack on the hill is turning into a very nice house.

The pros of owning a bulk food store!

  ...trying out a Himalayan Pink Salt block from a customer! "would I carry this, please"? (Do I crush it or just pass it around the table?) :) .....i take all the produce home that get bumped and briused. Onions get chopped and frozen, which I love having on hand ,just don't like too many at a time! ....grabbing baking stuff off the shelves,including many items I normally wouldn't get, like mini m&m bits! Funny tho', my spices containers are emptier than ever, I forget to pick them up 'cause I don't have a grocery list anymore! ....farm fresh eggs from local farmers! ....i get to test out the latest kitchen gadgets,including the broken stuff! ....meat and cheese ends from the deli, they make wonderful snacks when having  friends over!
