New Kitchen - Our new kitchen is underway. Appliances were delivered last week. Dining room cupboards should be installed this week...then a template needs to be made for the counter. Once that is done we wait for the counter to be installed, then complete the project with a new pantry/cupboard and jazzy back splash.

All this at the same time I am supposed to be preparing a talk on pinching pennies. Hummmm....any advice?
