A New Stove

A few years ago we bought a new kitchen (yes, 2 islands, about 10 cabinets, and a gas stovetop), which we have not yet installed.  In between buying this kitchen we weren't using and now, our oven became unusable.  Every time we used the oven we could smell gas.  So we knew it was getting to be time to get rid of the old stove:

(It was a hideous stove anyway, so I was looking forward to getting rid of it!)

But to use our new stove, we had to install it somehow.  So, Mark bought tile and made a countertop.  He installed our new gas stove in one of our new cabinets:

He did a really nice job with the tile, which goes really well with our cabinets!  We really like the new stove, and Mark is thinking about doing more countertop in the kitchen with this tile, which I think would make a nice accent!
