Follow James Cury on the Journey of Renovating his Kitchen

Have you ever renovated your kitchen or maybe really wanted to? I have been to people’s houses before to help them organize a space and they would prefer to just bull doze over it and start from scratch. There are several rooms in my home that I would love to renovate. I have never lived through a renovation, but I have heard the woes and the tales of what a pain it can be.

James Cury, the executive editor of Epicurious.com, the premier award-winning food Web site, blogs about his adventures in redoing his kitchen in his first home. He is taking us through the whole process from choosing the appliances, compromising on details with his wife and the ongoing battle with the city for approval. Doesn’t that sound like fun?! His latest blog post lays out everything he has had to deal with over the last few weeks which include asbestos testing, architect/contractor negotiations, filing paper work and more. I’m tired just reading about it!

If you are thinking about renovating your kitchen, you can follow James’ journey and get some great tips. Or, maybe you have been through a renovation already and you can share your two cents with him.

I’m looking forward to reading this blog, not only to see what all is involved in a kitchen renovation and seeing what decisions he has to make, but also getting to see and celebrate the end when he and his wife have the kitchen of their dreams. Now that will be a fun day!

Good luck to you James!
