Kitchen: The Before

If you see a minus symbol instead of a picture, click on it and you'll see the picture. Another blogger oddity!

The remodel is getting really real. We’ve had our final pre-construction meeting and the schedule says demolition starts Tuesday! We continue to relocate everything from the kitchen elsewhere.
The final walk-through and closing is scheduled for Friday, February 3.
Here are some before pictures:

We will be retiring this dishwasher Monday night. It will probably sit in the living room until our new appliances are delivered and the old ones are taken away.

This microwave will serve as our main source of cooking during the next 5 weeks. We’re also planning to utilize our electric fajita grill, our quesadilla press and our crock pots.

The oak woodwork will be enameled to match the cabinets.

This will be the home of a new floor to ceiling cabinet.

Future home of the pantry!

When I come home from work on Tuesday, there will be a big hole where this closet is.
We’ll keep using this fridge until our new one is delivered. It will have a new home in the living room until the new one is delivered. This is proof that the second cheapest refrigerator at Sears can last more than 16 years. We have high expectations of the new one!
