I HAVE A SINK! This is amazing and awesome, and it works, hot and cold water come out and then drain, and it’s really exciting. On top of having a sink, I have a microwave, a dishwasher, and countertops! Plus some baseboards and trim, and two doors so we can test how the crown molding will interact with the door edges… but really, I have a sink! As you can tell, the contractor came back today, and his crew was busy! They put in all of my countertop, doing beautiful mitered seams at the corners, and installed my sink, with its faucet (pull-out sprayer is awesome), and the microwave with the vent to the outdoors, and my garbage disposal, and my dishwasher. The dishwasher isn’t actually plumbed yet, but it’s sitting in place. Also, anything that needs electricity isn’t functioning at the moment because the outlets are getting installed tomorrow. But suddenly my kitchen looks rather a lot like a kitchen! And it’s gorgeous. I kind of want to hang out in it and pet my sink.
