    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Today marks 7 full weeks since our home renovation began, and a month since I wrote a post on the updates! There’s been SO much progress since then: insulation, new walls, new electric, a new window, mudroom and powder bath tile installation, base cabinetry installation, appliance delivery, and yesterday… countertop installation!And somewhere within the last 4 weeks, the seasons have completely shifted. I can no longer roll out of bed and into a pair of shorts, sandals, and a tank (my go-to summ

    Wow, it’s been a whirlwind of a month! Today marks 3 full weeks since demo began on our home renovation, and it’s been so exciting to watch the layers of the kitchen physically peel back!! We said goodbye to the world’s ugliest plaid linoleum floors (SEE YA NEVER), said hello to the original wallpaper from the 1960s hiding behind cabinets (shockingly didn’t hate it), and have slowly watched the transformation happen before our eyes.If you’re following along on my Instagram stories, you’re gettin

    We’re knee-deep in packing up the kitchen (and basically half the house) as we prepare for renovations to begin in just a few days. AHHHH! These last couple of weeks have been spent cooking our final meals, clearing cabinets, taking “before” photos, and soaking in the little moments that have happened in this space over the past two and a half years.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!i1RM!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F

    No. 38: My Kitchen Designs & Floor Plan (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    It’s crunch time!! These next two weeks will be spent cooking our last meals in our current kitchen, taking a few photos for the memory box, and packing everything up. It’s SO bittersweet. Over the last 2.5 years, I’ve grown to love so many of this kitchen’s quirks, but I’m also more than ready for it to feel brighter, more functional, and better suited my family. Earlier this week while watering my garden, I ran into my neighbor who was friends with the original owner of our home, Pat. She told

    Entry No. 37: One Month Until Demo! (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    ONE MONTH until kitchen demo kicks off! It felt so far away, and all of a sudden it’s nearly here. This last month has been filled with checking measurements, placing orders, and creating and updating my budget tracker daily. In all my spare time (after work and during nap time), I’ve been hyper-focused on all the little details of the renovation. Here are a few things I accomplished in June on the kitchen front, some big and some small:<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://
