A very busy morning, followed by an afternoon in which I was forced to do catch-up work for my real job (answer emails, placed book orders, finished revisions to the copy-edited version of an article on muscleman movies of the 1950s and 60s). This morning I installed another cabinet (the big 36" guy next to the corner cabinet), installed our new halogen lighting fixture (thanks for the electricity guidance, Bill! turns out with Ac power it doesn't matter what's wired to what; very helpful when your house is so old the wires aren't labeled for positive and negative), and put together the stainless-steel cart to go under the window. There's still some odd painting to be done, some extra work on the electrical sockets (some are not fitting as well under their covers as I would like), and some other small things. I assembled our sink cabinet and we tested it out—looks good, and seems like it should work. As soon as the sink cabinet is in (tomorrow), then I bring back in the dishwasher and see if we can cram an 18" cabinet next to that.
For kicks, I also set the small countertop up on the cabinets. Looks nice, but must remember to oil it!

The picture of the stove with the new floors makes me drool. Your new kitchen will kick ass. Next time I'm in C-U, I demand a full-on feast with the meat pie and the napoleon. With the new kitchen, it will cook itself, right?
I refuse to allow a Napoleon to cook itself—it must be entirely my production (not unlike this kitchen...)
"aren't labeled for positive and negative"
Replace with "hot" and "neutral".
Floor looks good and the track light thingy is making me consider getting a similar fixture for the front room here.
