Time for a look at how it all turned out. Like a child, this kitchen truly seems as if it's always been here. And I take that to mean it fits us and suits our house. Thanks for all your support during the long, long gestation period!

Spotting similar cabinets in a magazine got this whole kitchen started. Thanks for the inspiration!

So handy to have pepper, olive oil, and salt at the ready.

Totally my fault

Minutes after I posted the previous "wonder what other surprises are out there" entry, I learned that we need a new furnace. They discovered a cracked heat exchanger when redoing the venting. The furnace is old enough that it doesn't make sense to try to repair it; it just needs to be replaced.

ARGH!

    A great time to take advantage of energy rebates??

    And, since you are staying put for the foreseeable future and live in a cold climate, don't skimp and get a less-efficient furnace to save on capital costs. I have been regretting getting the 80% efficient model instead of the 90% efficient for the last 9 years.
