Our Kitchen!    

The biggest, best & most expensive changes occurred in this room.

What we did:  knocked out wall between kitchen and service porch to make a bigger kitchen; tore out old cabinets and put in new; installed new: dishwasher, range, microwave, sink, refrigerator, washer & dryer, backdoor, granite countertops, tile floor and tile backsplash; and last but not least --painted! The granite was fabricated & installed by Haley's brother's company in Sacramento: Wardlow Tile & Stone.  The final addition was wood blinds on the windows.

The goal was to completely redo this travesty.  It begged so many questions: Why are the counters so low?  Why is the floor parquet? Why are the cabinets and light fixtures so ugly?  Pictures do not demonstrate how ugly& non-functional it really was.
