We have a small kitchen. Space is always a problem. Particularly when a few meals go by without a total cleanup. My brother Mike and his wife Wendy noticed this and made a plan one day last summer to come over with some scraps of wood, some tools, and plenty of ideas for improvement. Among other things, they helped us remove the non-functioning dishwasher, built extra shelving into our cupboards, screwed in various hooks, and tore out the tiny wall at the top of our cupboards so we could access the space above for storage. Noting the now empty space the old dishwasher had occupied, they went on their way. Again, this was last summer.
A few days ago I pull into their driveway and this is waiting:

I won't go into great detail on the effort Mike put into restoring this, but it is a perfect fit, both in the space and in our lives.
