cooking up all kinds of fun


This is a picture of grime and a 3-in-one tool. They seriously duked it out the other day.

After about five hours, assisted by a wire brush, hot soapy water, and the demise of three formerly useable kitchen towels, the 3-in-one tool was declared the winner.

Now we can actually use the shelves under the kitchen island!

The island itself received two coats of primer and a coat of "Prairie Dance". (More pics to come when the slate top is installed!)

In other news, Hubby got creative on me and crafted the panels for our double-oven cabinet.
He used the leftover wood from the original general store counter.

He re-created the look of the kitchen island with the oak panels.

Cool, right?
They were painted a color very closely matching the cabinetry.

The ovens ( which had been purchased over a year ago!) were installed....

along with a fantastic 5-burner cook-top! I am so happy to be using gas burners once again.

And speaking of happy, I don't think you have to ask Ana how she feels about all this!
