I Wash Dishes

I've realized that on one hand I can go a long time without a stove, but on the other hand it's really annoying to wash a cutting board in a bathroom sink. I can think of meals to make using a blender, crockpot, rice steamer, and/or electric skillet -- no stove needed! -- but I haven't had a good way to wash out those larger items.

Yesterday afternoon they re-installed our old kitchen sink:



so after 2 weeks of kitchen renovation I could immerse and scrub things in hot water.

Of course, this involved shutting down the water to the house for a while ... it turned out to be about 3 hours, by which time I was getting twitchy with a desire to wash my hands.

Today: light switches. We've been screwing/unscrewing the light bulbs to turn them on and off.

I can relate to the whole washing dishes thing. At our last house (last kitchen remodel) I washed things in the bathroom sink, tub and utility sink. Anyway I did it, the process was clumsy and involved trotting totes of dishes around. On the bright side, I think your remodel looks great so far. Can't wait to see the finished product!
