It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Kitchen!

For the past couple of weeks we have been hitting the punch list pretty hard, finishing up hundreds of items that are not all that press worthy for the blog.

The last big item is the kitchen. Let me refresh your memory of the plan. 

First we have the arial view of the kitchen with the new extension that contains the dining room.

Here is a direct view of the cooking center which is flanked by the fridge, freezer and two pantries.

Then we have the working side of the island which contains a dishwasher, microwave and a big stainless steel apron sink.

Directly across from the island is my open shelving and lower cabinets to store all my dishware, glasses and mixers, Cuisinart and other special items.

The schedule is pretty aggressive.

January 18/19 - Cabinets and Templating for the Stone

January 22 - Stuff that has been in storage for 2 years — comes back

January 23 - Stone gets put in

January 24 - Appliances get delivered and go in

I chose a beautiful quartz that looks like Carrera marble and the island is dark blue like my living room and the other bottom cabinets and panels are all a white stained white oak.

I must get back to my post as the cabinets have just been delivered and the guys are getting ready for install.
