a new kitchen for christmas?

The builder says he can do the job in six weeks! Imagine, a new kitchen for Christmas! I am so gullable. Anyway, yesterday we started clearing the old one. I found stuff I never thought I had. Seaweed expired in 2003 already, rancid nutmeg and truffle olive oil, dating back to 98. This is too embarrassing, so let me change the direction I am moving in. While sucking up old dust from behind the kitchen cabinets - cabinets I swore would leave the premises after two weeks of moving in in October 91- I promised myself that my new life will be feng shuied into enviable minimalism.
