The plumber returned on Monday and hooked up the refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and sink. Now we have a fully functioning kitchen! Sami tried everything out by preparing last night's dinner in the beautiful space, using all of the new appliances. It feels like a real luxury to have burners, water, and cold ingredients all within a few steps of each other.

Water leaks around the faucet, chipped Formica, holes worn through the floor... just a distant memory. |
|
We have moved from an all electric range to one with gas burners and a convection oven, even a griddle/grill, plus a computer-operated control system. |

Most fun was making a rhubarb pie that was evenly cooked and browned. |
We will not actually move into the kitchen and start using it regularly until we are done with the plaster work on the main floor, which will be extensive and a big mess, because we will insulate the living room walls. But it was fun to give everything in the kitchen a test drive. Sami has some learning to do, especially regarding the new range, but the lessons will be fun. Can't wait!
