The kitchen is done. In April the cabinets were delivered. In June the work started. Now, here we are, two and half months later, on reveal day. Let me repeat: The kitchen is done. Those words are still sinking in. Let's take a moment to discuss where we started. In the 1960s, Dorothy and her husband moved into BHH.…
