Cool site. However ... I am not particularly fond of granit. It seems ...
gritty looking to me. I imagine waterford shattering on it. I don't know
what I would want on the counters. Anyway, no remodel is planned, just
yearned for. I want to take down a couple of walls and completely
reconfigure. Since I can't do that now (gotta buy a car and want a better
one than I should) I might just refloor, refinish the cabinets (which are
real wood and beautiful, just the finish is worn) and get new appliances aka
new wall oven (present one is also coppertone!) and dishwasher. My fridge is
new, at least.
