The pictures today of the kitchen show the transformation of the space. This is probably a little boring but when you see the final result you will be shocked. This work took place during the summer of 2011. This gave us the opportunity to finish the space with tile, paint, cabinets and appliances slowly over the next 8 months. We set up a makeshift kitchen in the dining room. We had a gas grill in the garage, a fridge, microwave, electric skillet and griddle. Of course we lived in Belgium during this time but did come home at Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break and and then for good in July.
