Almost there!

kit6The marble tile has been set.

Tomorrow, the new stove will be installed.

The kitchen still looks like a war zone and everything is covered with a fine layer of marble dust; I still have to caulk around the tiles, apply a coat of wax or sealer (leaning toward wax, on the advice of a friend with more style than myself), stain and install the trim, but the heavy work is done.

It was harder than I expected, but also more fun.  However, I’m tired and sore, with a full schedule tomorrow and the day after.

Still having no stove and feeling guilty about letting the kids forage for two nights in a row, I took the youngest two out to dinner.  We ran into AT and the boys at the Time Out Deli, testing out a new ride.  This was my first time in the deli since they changed ownership, and it’s outstanding.  Really good stuff.

I’m looking forward to actually cooking tomorrow, though.

  1. Glad you folks have the heavy stuff done NM. I know you are looking to firing up that new stove top and doing the iron chef for your tribe. Congrats.

  2. Oh that is going to be awesome! I am insanely jealous … with my C-house cubby of a kitchen.

    Time Out Deli … I think I spent more time there than I did classes during high school, way back when. I am going to have to get over there one of these days real soon.

  3. Looking good. Almost done and a fine job, as if you had a brick mason do it. You surely are a jack of all trades. Am interested in seeing it with the stove top in it. What color is the stove top?
