We took some time off from kitchening to enjoy what remained of summer. But, with summer over, we have revived our kitchen work, and, hence, this blog rises from the dead. With fall barely begun we have already made some progress on the kitchen in the way of trim, and temporary stairs to the back yard before Project Back Deck begins in Spring 2008. Pictures to follow.
In other news, after abandoning our training for the Ottawa Half Marathon in May in favour of working on the kitchen, we have resumed training and will be running the Toronto Half Marathon in October.
Training is coming very well. We are running four days a week, with a mid-week hill training run, and a long run on Sundays. Our long run this week will be 18k. The following week will be 20k. The week after that will be 21k, with a rest week before race day.
I am already exceedingly nervous about the race. To help me overcome my race day jitters, Rob kicked my ass in a 10k race last weekend.
Up next for the kitchen is remaining hardware, trim, plastering, and painting.
We think we have found an island solution, it remains to be implemented.
And, finally, the tiling of the backsplash has been put on hold for the time being. It will be plastered and painted, with tiling to follow at a later date.
That's it for now, I'll get some pictures up this weekend.

Good for you! Can I live vicariously through your running for the next few months?
And BTW-- your husband is hot. :-)
