house update #3

The last update was about the plaster ceiling. Now, the making of our so called wet kitchen. Well mainly this is where the cooking essentials i.e lesung batu and tumis action will take place, inviting the neighborhood through the smells. It's 70% making its way.

 

Basically I incorporated the idea of getting acquainted in the neighborhood, but somehow it arose the sensitivity concern for hijabi's here especially when I'm all in kaftan prepping my most wanted nasi lemak in the open space wet kitchen. So the husband attempted to level the wall as per the picture says. Purportedly not that practical, but will make do with it for the time being.  

 

The Kitchen Cabinet structuring. Well, IKEA charged RM3K for the structuring fees, so my engineering oriented husband decided to structure the cabinet himself. He's spending an hour half at night assembling the cabinet, piece by piece.  Pocket constrain urge the need for DIY at the moment :) Can I trust him for the job? Sure! He'd already install the lighting in the living dining and porch all by himself.

Basically there's still tonnes to do before we could finally move in and it all demands RM as wide as the Indian Ocean! So, we are making the means step by step.. Till my next update. Oh yes, the London post! Will do that in my next entry.

Salam.
