My oven caught on fire last night. No worries — the fire didn’t spread beyond the inside of the oven and the only injury was a small blister on my finger. The kitchen is a wreck, but there’s nothing that can’t be cleaned.
Fortunately getting a new range was already at the top of our home improvement list. The plan was to paint the kitchen cabinets and then get the range. I’ve been working on the cabinets in fits and starts for at couple weeks, with April 6 as the deadline. Because I still want to paint the cabinets before getting the range, that schedule has been compressed into the next five days.
So, I’m on hiatus for the rest of the week. Instead of blogging, I’ll be sanding, priming, painting and hanging cabinet doors. All while trying to not make myself sick by overdoing it. Wish me luck!
See you on Monday.
Arg! Well at least you got to play with a semi cooperative oven last weekend! Last cookie died yesterday, a delicious death! 🙂 Best of luck and sweat (maybe a few tears?) on the cabinets- sounds like Fun!
