Week Three, Day One

Lots more progress!

Today the bathroom floor was tiled with honed 12" x 12" crema marfil marble. There will be a matching crema marfil threshold, and the walls will be tiled with matching polished crema marfil. It looks great -- we are very excited about the new floor!

Also, the electric work continued as new lines were run to the circuit breaker box and the walls were patched and plastered. This way there will be no wires in sight for me to chew.

Finally, the cabinet maker told us that he will have the final plans and door finish samples for us for approve on Wednesday! This Saturday, Mom and Dad are headed to a granite yard in Brooklyn to pick out the exact slab of granite to be used for the countertops. We're going to use polished 1 1/4" thick Virginia Mist granite in both the kitchen and butler's pantry area. Mom and Dad will have to tackle that one alone as I'll be relaxing out at at my country house (i.e., Grandma and Grandpa's house) for the weekend.
