New Kitchen

Okay, Okay, I know I'm way over due for a post, but this last week has been crazy with our first group of high schoolers in.... well and I also might be in the middle of a really good book that takes up all my free time. But anyway, I'm going to make up for it and post all of my stored up material this weekend (at least I say that now)
 
So this has actually been done for a while now, but we had our kitchen redone before the start of the summer this year and for you old CAer's I thought I'd post the new pics. There were some things in bad need of repair and it is now so exciting to have a fresh place to work in.
 

So this is the before picture... and by the way, I HATED those ugly green cabinets.

 

And here is the new! Plus some pudding we were making for snack. Notice... that whole island is gone, it is so nice having that room.

 

This is the new dishwashing station. No more scrubbing at the super low pots and pans sink, and we have a sprayer, which is the best thing since sliced bread.

 

See how our sink flows right to staging, and right into our new dishwasher... which does a load in 2.5 minutes. Can you tell I'm a little excited?

 

Here you can get a good look at the new flooring. Our old flooring was pealing up, so this is a really nice change. The flooring is a laminate tile, so it is flexible and can shift with the building.

We also got all new cabinets in, so everything can be put away now, instead of piled on shelves.

 

The other major change is that we took out the window and added a door onto the kitchen so we can close it during dishes. Tamara Smith was gracious enough to wood burn Mount Sinai onto our covering and paint our door for us. 10 points if you can tell me where that painting is!

 

So that is pretty much it. It is so exciting to have this all done and to cook in a new kitchen! Thanks to all of you who helped support camp and make this change possible.
