The thing is, there are plenty of “real” projects I could be working on.
But it’s just not to my taste yet.Today’s little kitchen tour is all about how I love it anyway while we wait to be able to do the big renovation of our dreams..
So welcome to my kitchen!This is a large, typical old farmhouse kitchen.The house itself is about 115 years old and the kitchen addition was added on about 80 years ago.
The current kitchen is the result of a renovation about 16 years ago.The golden oak cabinets aren’t really my thing, but the previous home owners definitely did a great job of making this a cozy and functional kitchen and they didn’t cheap out on things like good quality hardware and cabinetry.
Things like the built in spice cupboard are just little details, but they make me happy..
I have dreams of a big white kitchen with new hardwood floors, extra cabinet space on the other side of the room, and maybe some butcher block counters too.expensive service and repair calls, and the one thing that we always heard, every time the service guys came out, was that we had to keep the dishwasher clean and maintain it on a regular basis to keep it running smoothly.. We had a really fancy and expensive industrial dishwasher of course, but the concept of maintaining your dishwasher is really the same no matter what kind you have.
You may think that your dishwasher at home is clean but everyday use can cause grease, lime scale, and soap scum to build up in tubes, spray arms, and other vital parts and cause it not to work as well.When you’re doing 100 loads of dishes per day in a commercial setting, you do need to run maintenance procedures almost constantly, but you probably don’t need to be quite as intense about it at home.
Once a month should do it.You’ll want to start with an empty dishwasher.
