My Code Compliant Kitchen


I thought that as long as I had a sink, we would be good. Now I've come to find out that we need to have a range hood installed too? On Friday, I scrambled over to U-Save...again. Earlier this week I spotted a ductless exhaust hood there for less than $20. Don kindly donated a wall cabinet so that the hood could connect to something. I spent the weekend painting cabinets with Home Depot's low VOC paint, Fresh Aire. They tried to warn me that it would take more coats than their traditional Behr paint. Well, lesson learned after FIVE coats! I hate spending time and money on something temporary, but what can you do?

The good news is that plumbing passed its final inspection. One down, three to go.
