It doesn't matter how slow you go, only the end result counts

That is my new motto for now. It appears that things move slowly at times, of course small interruptions do not help. However we did finish the cooktop.


And my very talented wife made the brackets for the spice racks using the scroll saw and the dremel. These are two separate racks put together, painted, hung and "tahdah" one larger rack. We have adopted the slogan "fix it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without out." (Well at least that is what we are trying to do. However, there are times when that does not work.)


Then we tackled the need for more storage. Yes a bookshelf on a table made from scrap lumber works fine for the storage of our canned tomatoes.


And another shelf for storage of other ingredients.


Last but certainly not least is the counter. I made the shelving that is above the counter. The end shelves are covered with oak and ready to be stained. Just a few more touches and my work in the kitchen is finished and my talented wife will complete the final touches.
