Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending.

Lazurus Long.

It's been a fantastic journey in remodeling our kitchen. Without the guidence of John and Chris at Blue Ribbon and Shauna at Kitchen and Bath Galleries this would never have happened. Their combined knowledge made for a wonderful experience. Of course there were problems, but John and Chris were available at any time and dealt with the difficulties in a fair manner. Yes there were changes to the original plans (in spite of our best efforts) but even these were handled promptly. Remodeling is a long and tedious process that will make you want to scream your head off but it's so worth all the pain in the long run.

We have a gorgeous kitchen that works beautifully for both of us. Mark is our chef and I'm the sous-chef. The angled cabinets and counter with the prep sink allows easy prep work without getting in the chef's way. The smooth cook top allows for easy cleanup. The only regret I have is I didn't have the pot filler installed, but it was to late in the remodel when I thought of it.

To everyone that worked on this project from the demolition crew to the painters, you have my heart felt thanks.
