In about two weeks’ time, we have almost completely remodeled our kitchen.  We bribed some friends from church with pizza to help us tear out our old cabinets and move our appliances into the dining room.  We tore up two floors (wood on top of linoleum) and patched up major sections of the wall.  We laid tile and installed Ikea cabinets (which are awesome, by the way), and now just need to paint and get our countertop installed.
