FUN WITH BOXES?

Fun with boxes? For Alice, yes, for the Magnificent T and I, not so much!!

T tried hiding Alice under a box - but we could hear her crying, poor baby. However she loved being lifted in and out of an open box and playing 'Where's Alice?!'

Meanwhile T and I were trying to pack up the kitchen. Why? Because early next week the kitchen is being carefully removed, rearranged and reinstalled. Why? Because the kitchen floor (laminate) has gaps in, we need a new kitchen floor and once I started considering a new floor I started thinking more carefully about the kitchen - it's long and thin and the layout is appalling, I walk miles when really cooking.

The new layout will be more compact and (hopefully) more user-friendly. In the meantime we will be without a kitchen for 2 weeks or more - eating in the hall, cooking by combination oven, toaster and kettle. It's going to be interesting - let's hope that they don't overrun or hit unexpected problems. Alice was a little unsettled by all the boxes and commotion. I hope all this upheaval is going to be worth it!
