Cat, at The Whimsical Gardener, has challenged us to a 30 Day Challenge of Thanksgiving.
A post a day, for 30 days, to celebrate the things we are thankful for, in our lives.
~~Day 19~~
Today, I'm thankful for my new oven.
This is what we had, when we moved in.
I took this picture on one of our tours through the house, prior to buying.
No push buttons here. Turn a knob for the microwave. Hope the oven gets warm in time.
We redid a lot of things here.
I stripped the cabinets. Ones you can't see here, were green.
I stripped wallpaper off, and textured and painted.
I put in a new tile backsplash.
We had granite countertops, a new sink and a new cooktop installed.
But, the micro/oven worked. So, we waited.
We decided we could just use this vintage model.
This week...we had this installed.
You'll notice it's shorter than the old one. Gives me a shelf under it.
We just need to finish it out.
The new technology doesn't require as thick insulation.
New and shiny...we've moved into the twenty-first century.
Just in time for the holidays.
There'll be some bakin' goin' here!
Everybody's thankful.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the new oven! Your kitchen looks nice.
ReplyDeleteI would be thankful too, if I were driving my your place when that baking is going on. You waited a long while!
