Can I cook yet?

Yes I can!!! After 7 long weeks, My kitchen is finished! (well pretty much, just a few small things more for me to do)

Here's some before and afters!









 I'm thrilled with how the kitchen and breakfast area came out! I do think I need a quilt for that big red wall though :) And it's all finished before the start of the summer season too!! woohoo!! Now to get some quilts done!

A Grouted Floor and a Challenge Finish!

Well our floor is finally finished and grouted!!! Yahooo!!















Our contractor has promised us that our kitchen will be finished, minus the countertop, by Wednsday afternoon! After 4 weeks without a kitchen, I am SO glad it's almost finished!!




Since I haven't been much in the "cooking"
department, I have taken advantage of the free time to complete a BPF UFO Challenge quilt, Fresh Traditions! This will go to the newest addition in our family, my great-niece Susannah! I just have to put a label on it and mail it on it's way up north!

I did some digging in the dirty this afternoon, it is like a mid-summer's day out there today! I will take some pics of my flowers later this season, when they all start to bloom :)

Hope you all are enjoying a fabulous Sunday!
