Nearing completion

The kitchen remodel is nearly complete.  Here is Erin helping Dad by holding the ladder while he paints.  

Ms. A realized she was done at two points in the recent past. Event #1: it took 20 min one morning to make toast and coffee in the "kitchen" set up in the spare bedroom. With only one outlet in the room the circuit breaker kept getting tripped every 30-45 seconds.  Event #2 when Brian made dinner - salmon burgers - in the electric skillet plugged into the bathroom outlet (see event #1), with the skillet balanced on the toilet seat lid. Eew.

But, with the ovens, cooktop, hood, fridge, dishwasher, sink all installed we are so close, so very close.

Do you already have the recipe and ingredients prepped for the first baked goods to come from the new kitchen?

(And, um, I second the "eww" on the toilet cooking.)
