My Cooking Space VII

At least I have somewhere to put the milk now. We're hosting relatives for the next week and while we can't exactly cook them a meal, we can at least have a place for them to stash some drinks and snacks if they so desire. As you can see, the...

My Cooking Space VI

It's been a week since I last updated the world on the kitchen remodel. And don't think it's because I don't care. Honestly, it's because I haven't had much to report. I know tons of stuff has been happening, but it's all little electrical things and stuff that doesn't exactly...

Friday Funnies XXIV

While we continue to go through the kitchen remodel, I look forward to the future and seeing how it will all look in the end. At least I know it can't end up like this. I know this. I ... do. I'm shutting up before a massive jinx occurs.

My Cooking Space V

So now the kitchen is beginning to quickly resemble the scene in ET when the feds took over Eliot's house. Luckily when I walked in there was no one in the biohazard suits to greet me. So no X-Files moment for me.We had to get the kitchen floor refinished because...

Friday Funnies XXIII

Tomorrow night I am going to see Jerry Seinfeld live at the Kennedy Center. Looking forward to it. It will be the third time I have seen him live and he never fails to deliver. So in honor of going to see him in person, here are a couple clips...

My Childhood, Bastardized

So before I rant about the latest film incarnation to ruin a piece of my childhood, let me celebrate that one film from my younger days remains intact. Seems cooler heads have prevailed and that Zac Efron has pulled out of the Footloose remake. For the time being, one of...

My Cooking Space III

Break on through to the other side.Came home to the beginnings of the hole. This isn't the hole in its entirety, there is still more of it to make (it will probably double in length). Above is the view from the TV room. To the right is the view from...

Boom Goes the Dynamite, 2.0

For all you sports fans out there, no one may ever top the famous Boom Goes the Dynamite guy. If you've never seen it, shame on you, and go watch it now. Anyway, this guy doesn't top Boom, but he comes awfully close.

My Cooking Space II

The carnage in the kitchen continues. Tonight I came home to find my oven removed and a hole on the other side of the wall. Nothing too crazy, but it's fun to see a huge hole where my bookshelf once sat (the bookshelf frame is still there because we're getting...
