The contents of my kitchen shelves and cupboards huddle together on the kitchen table patiently waiting for the big kitchen re-furb to be over. My brother-in-law has worked his craftsman's magic on the cabinets after a week of incredibly long days of hard work. Now we are painting and decorating (ok, Mac and the boys are painting and decorating while I hide in my office writing, appearing at intervals to do a spot of tea-making or tidying).
The big pine cone from Oregon is a kitchen essential!
What a lot of work ,I expect you have discovered things you had forgotten about, lurking in the back of cupboards , I think we ought to get our kitchen replaced , it seems a good excuse to go out for meals.
