As most of you will recall, about 5 and 1/2 months ago, one sick morning, not only did I lose the previous nights dinner, but also my kitchen. (Could I possibly fit another comma into that sentence??) You can go back and find the post if your sweet little heart desires; however, I don’t care to rehash it in this post.
Five and a half months (most without use of cooking supplies) later, I am finally back in business. I have lamented and kicked dust about the lack of a microwave, stove, and dishwasher (or even a good sink to wash dishes in), but I would never allow myself to gripe about my circumstances. I could try and claim a noble reason for my tight lips, but I won’t. Let me be completely honest. This kitchen. Scratch that. This GORGEOUS kitchen, only cost me $500. I will allow you a moment to reattach your jaw…
Okay, now that your jaw is back in place, I will explain. $500 was the cost of the deductible. The kitchen nearly cost me over $10,000. It would have if the damage done had been just about anything other than burst pipes. I thank God for saving my ass in this one. (Actually, he saves my ass all the time, but I always notice the financial hiney savings most acutely).
So without further adieu… here is my new kitchen (and 1/2 bath!)
