When we started, just before the demolition in Nov. 2007, the window corner of the kitchen looked like this:
One year ago, with the deadline days away, it looked like this:
Today it looks like this:
And when we started, the view from my dining room fireplace, facing the kitchen, looked like this:
And today it looks like this:

Awesome! It looks great. Worth the wait.
Thanks, Jennifer. Looking at the old pictures, it all seems now like a horrible dream.
Wow, your kitchen is awesome! I was shocked to get a comment from you on my blog earlier, since I've been following yours for ages. Are the people in your Google reader celebrities? I kinda think of them (and you!) that way.
Oh! I love the purple and black. And the mosaic and that hood!
Thank you both, Chris and Annie, for your kind comments. And yes, Chris, all my blogger friends are celebrities. But I gotta cut loose that Paris Hilton if she leaves another red wine stain on the butcher block!
Oh. My. God. What a completely AWESOME transformation! You guys have done an awful lot of work.
And to hell with deadlines. I gave myself one for the kitchen and bath reno, but am now rethinking it.
Thanks, NV. I have to give credit for all the work to my husband. He is truly tireless.
I did an awful lot of shopping. We each contribute what we do best.
Wow, that's a whole lot of work and such an improvement - it looks tons bigger. Congrats
