After living in a kitchen with nails coming through the floor and a countertop that could cause harm to your arms we decided "enough was enough"! New solid surface counter tops and new flooring made me a happy woman.
We ordered an undermount stainless sink but I guess it was our lucky day and a mistake was made and we got the more expensive intergrated sink. I wasn't sure I wanted it. My old white sink was always stained and dirty looking and I was afraid of the white thing but to my delight, I like it!
The faucet is pretty slick also. It does all kinds of tricks that I haven't even tried yet. We also got a new dishwasher that is suppose to be so quiet we will have to put our ears next to it to see if it is even running. (I'm not sure I believe it, but it sounded good)
A quick trip to Ikea provided us with new bar stools. Being a bit smaller than our last ones makes our already small kitchen seem a little bigger.
The built in desk is gone. It just provided me a place to stack everything that ever came into our house. For now I have put a little piece of furniture of my mom's. It is kinda cute there and it adds a little memory of my mom.

Tha's awesome
It looks so good in fact, that I'm at a loss on something funny or inappropriate to put as a comment.
This made me really miss Sunday dinners at the Holman's. Oh the good times in that kitchen...
Miss you guys!
Better not have used any of my inheritance on that. Looks great though. Now we need an excuse to come back home.

Sell the house?! What? I have great memories of that old linoleum and old barstools I couldn't get into by myself.
On a separate note, thanks for the recipe book! My mom had told me about it, but I wasn't expecting to get one on my doorstep. It's awesome! Thanks; it means a lot to me!
That all sounds too familiar....fixing up the house to sell so someone else can enjoy all the new stuff! Looks great though.
