DH and I did just exactly this same thing last summer--all summer long--but now it is just a fading memory. Ours is a continuing journey of remodeling an old (as in 1900 or so) house, trying to maintain character while installing (necessary) up to date facilities. My kitchen was last summer's job. Lots of eating out since it is only the two of us anymore--taking advantage of three kids' generosity in cooking different meals--and occasionally using the grill and making use of freezers, microwave, fridge in DH's shop. And to top that off, I got used to "not cooking" and that has stuck with me--I cook only when I want to now.......but my new kitchen is absolutely wonderful. I love it.
