C’est pas possible! Non! It just can’t be! – – Oh Yes, it is!
Oui, after over a year of waiting, after endless staff meetings, after adjusting plans and schedules, after resigning ourselves to the fact that it just would never happen, and finally, after living part time in El Camino Del Monte and part time in a house in utter upheaval, the contractors have completed their work. Now it is up to the weary and ragged SFH Test Kitchen staff members to organize a renovated kitchen, removing all construction debris, dust, and dirt, and bringing the soon-to-be-world famous test SFH Test Kitchen to a new level of excellence. – – Truly, it is a task most formidable!
To tell what had to be done and what remains to do is a story far too long for a single post. So, I will give you just the first taste here and then follow up with more detail in subsequent posts.
Here a just a few pictures of how the kitchen looked the morning after the contractors completed their work.
Below, I have painstakingly listed the major changes to the kitchen and have provided the purpose for the change or the upgrade. It will demonstrate that this renovation was not founded on a plan without a purpose.

Getting there.A few more touches to do.
Now the big clean up!
A farmhouse sink! I have one too. Now if Mark can’t find me, he looks toward the farmhouse sink, knowing I’ll be there. Love the subway tile- I chose bead ‘n board.
Laurel, the sink is very old porcelain and has been here a long time.
Still more to do.We are changing out the overhead fixture.
Yours is more authentic!
Looks great!
