As some of you already know, Nena and I are buying a house -- our first house. After weeks of waiting around for lawyers and banks to get everything together, we finally know when we're closing: December 12th.
We're very excited (and freaked out) but one of our big projects will be to rennovate the kitchen (no surprise there I'm sure). I have a feeling that the on-going project will be chronicled here on LENNDEVOURS, so stay tuned. The kitchen, and the rest of the house, is realy a blank slate. We're looking forward to making it ours.
If I don't blog a ton over the next couple of weeks, I do hope that you'll forgive me. Packing, moving and unpacking will consume us until the end of the month (and be fun with my sliced thumb). I promise to make up for it in 2006!
Congratulations!! I can't believe you are not working on the wine cellar first.

Let me know if you need the assistance of an interior designer. I see her everyweek for dinner.

Congratulations!!! Wow, that is so exciting! :D
I would LOVE to see the changes you are making in the kitchen! Do you have your plans all set to go already? I bet it will be gorgeous. :D
Good luck!!

We have LOTS of ideas...but we're going to move in and see what we want to do. Obviously we're painting the cabinets at the very least and changing the hardware.
Lots of ideas...not a lot of money!

Congratulations! Maybe we should have a wine blogging summit at the new Castello next summer and we could all pitch in!
Cheers,
Tyler
