Donna came by tonight and helped me with the last thing the kitchen needed to be really complete: a place to eat!

The back room had a little drop down table for which I never found a really good use. Here it is in a past, past incarnation of the study:

One day, I was looking at the blank canvas that was the side of the new kitchen counter when I had an epiphany and came up with this:

The paint job on the counter base should look familiar….

And here is the table flipped up, with my 1950s stool, covered in remnants of the study curtains:

And one more reveal for tonight. Remember the new cabinet on the kitchen side?

It looks a tad better now (and notice the floor is finished with trim and everything!):

Inside, I have room for trays, my blender, my bread maker, and my rice cooker!

I still have a couple of odds and ends to finish up, plus the front room needs a major vacuum, but the renos are essentially done. I feel pretty accomplished. 😀
