Kitchen Upgrade

Once my husband was dropped off at the Lisbon airport to go back to work, I started on the kitchen. It is easier to deal with a kitchen when it's just one person. If it was the two of us, there would be more cooking, more coffee making, more tea and more snacks.  The sink, which was earlier framed with raw lumber, got a few large tiles glued to it to make a more sanitary countertop surface. Next trip I will need to do something about the gap at the back, but this is a big improvement over raw lumber.

The limewash was applied over the sink area.

I managed to cut my thumb down to the bone while making fresh bread with melted sheep cheese. Husband bought a new serrated bread knife. Super sharp, Damn thing went down to the bone and I spent several hours keeping pressure on it until it dried enough not to break open. This is my toilet paper and tape bandage.

Since I couldn't do much with my thumb all cut up, I spent a day relaxing on the sofa and letting the kitchen tiles dry. Every time I tried to do something, my thumb would open back up and bleed. It's a month later and I still have some nerve damage in the thumb. I'm also still irritated that I cut myself with a bread knife and NOT while doing some sort of hard work.
