As usual, the first that comes to my mind is to lose the weight I put on during holidays. Always a challenge...
But it may be a bit easier this year. In my letter to Santa, I asked him to lent me a couple of his elves. He kindly obliged.
So, today, the kitchen went from
to
As bad as it looks, I'm thrilled to see what they have done. In my letter to Santa, I said I wanted more lights, and plugs, without saying exactly how many, nor where. But the elves are clever, and they pulled cables exactly where I need them :-)
You may wonder why there is a bucket. After the elves took the sink away, they turned the water on again... and the pipes burst. The plumber will come tomorrow to have a look. As the elves said, it is a good thing the kitchen was empty... And it will be easier to repair... Let's be positive!
Tomorrow, they'll fix the walls, and the day after tomorrow, the painting elf arrives.
To prepare for this, I'd emptied my closets, so no cookies, no chocolate. Only a microwave oven, and soups for dinner...

Je vois que tu es en pleine restauration, j'ai connu ça il y a 2 ans, c'est pénible au départ mais tellement agréable ensuite. Bises
New kitchen! What a nice Christmas pressie. I bet there'll be more recipes to come after this X
ooooh - we could ALL use those elves once you're done with them!!
I'll bet it will be beautiful when it gets all done! I hope you'll share pictures of it when it's all finished. What a great present Santa brought you!
An exciting way to begin a new year, with a new kitchen. FUN. Can't wait to see the end result.
Wow! I'm pretty impressed with the caliber of your elves. The ones around here don't do anything nearly as interesting! Can't wait to see how they finish.
wow! starting the year with a bang. your new kitchen will be fab. and you'll be slim and pretty.
not so for this señora gordita here
:(
Wow! c'est radical! et quel courage de le faire en hiver! j'ai hâte de voir la cuisine du père Noël.
A new kitchen? Totally fabo. Can't wait to see the finished job. You know you can keep chocolate in other places, in your handbag, drawer next to your bed, in your pocket, hehe. Take care. No worries, and love, Carol (and Stella and Rory)
Santa was very good to you.... a new kitchen. Enjoy after the mess!
I can't wait to see it when it finished! How exciting!
So the two things are strictly connected: without a kitchen you will have to loose weight! Well planned, Vero!
