Kitchen update #5

We have had a good deal of progress lately, though no time to update things. My parents were here for the past 2 weeks, which allowed me to get a good deal of things done, that I have not gotten to in the past. Fixing old outlets, moving electrical boxes, getting trim pieces done, etc...

We also had the cabinet guys here and the installers for the stove and microwave. Amazingly it all came together and I was actually able to make a rib roast and popovers in the new oven. Also we had baked eggs and chorizo for Christmas day breakfast!!! Yum!!!

It is starting to look like a real kitchen again. The dining room table is cleared off and usable again. Now we need to finish up the walls, get the island hood installed, then finish the ceiling, do the trim, and get the floor done. Can that all really happen by the 2nd weekend in February? I hope so. Oh yeah, the countertops are coming in mid-January. The color we picked is a dark grey, which it turns out is called "Kendall grey" Coincidence or destiny?
