If you’re read this blog before, you probably know that I’m in the middle of a kitchen remodeling project. The workmen came very early yesterday morning to start ripping everything out and when I got home last night the kitchen was gone. This is both a good thing and an extremely stressful thing, as my husband and I are making our morning coffee in the guest bedroom. It’s also probably why I found the August issue of Consumer Reports so riveting. In this issue they’re revealing the secrets to a successful kitchen remodel and some advice to help consumers save money and avoid aggravation. I wonder how many of their suggestions I’ve followed? How about you?
