"In a well-furnished kitchen, there are not only crystal goblets and silver platters, but there are waste cans and compost buckets - some containers are used to serve fine meals, others to take out the garbage. Become the kind of container God can use to present any and every kind of gift to his guests for their blessing." 2 Timothy 2:19-21 (The Message)

Before the Destruction

What's a remodel without before and after pictures? Our kitchen was updated about 12 yrs. ago with new white Formica counter tops and beautifully designed diamond pattern back splash, and oh yeah, don't forget the paint and carpet. But, our cabinets are circa 1960's. A sliding glass door replaced the double kitchen window about 11 yrs. ago.Last winter Larry added our new pantry which has helped so much. Used to have to straddle the basement steps to reach for things. Now, it's convenient and located in the kitchen.

Those are the things that have been added since we moved into the house in 1979. However, we guess that somewhere along the way, the size of the kitchen doubled with the back of the house being extended. Probably sometime between 1959 and 1963. Check the next post for some more "before" pictures.
