I've always hated these cabinets. Before you say, but Kate - they're so cute - they're fooling you with that cute 1940's style scolloped piece above the sink, know that they are masking obscene disfunction. I won't waste your time listing the ways just trust me. I've lived with them for 10 years and I know.
So last week Willy and I, well, mostly Willy, just yanked them down. It was rather exciting. It's amazing how fast you can tear something down. We were just sick of them, and the inertia the created in the kitchen. We decided to just take action. Sure, maybe it would be good to have a plan of action, and we do - a loose one. Very very loose.
Part of the fun was finding what was underneath. There was a window, an outlet and what may be the original wallpaper to the kitchen when it was build back in 1925. What nut case covered up an ungrounded electrical outlet?

WOW! How fun (well, easy for me to say, since I'm not the one doing the work, nor the one living with a torn up kitchen!)....I can't wait to see what you crazy kids do to it!
you need to see the lovely design scott sketched out for you!
Hee hee, I've so been there!
For six months, ha ha ha!
No really thanks. I can't wait to see what you two come up with.
