![Your Sunday BBQ isn't complete without this berry crumble. [AD] I was planning on picking up some Rhubarb this weekend but decided I didn't need to go to the store. Instead, I challenged myself to make something delicious using pantry staples!
It's all about berries right now, and I always keep an array of frozen berries in the freezer for smoothies or baking. The same goes for oats and @sevensundaysmn Muesli which is perfect for crumbles or cookies.
Gang, it's so good it won't last the weekend. I promise. Plus, I'm pretty sure I ate half last night. No judgment here.

Sunday, after a nice little hike to Cascade Falls, while enjoying lunch, we thought why not tackle the kitchen cabinets. Though we would love to tear the whole kitchen out, knock down a wall or two and replace everything from flooring to appliances, we know that’s more the 5-10 year plan. So the question is what can we do in the short term to spruce up a kitchen stuck in 1959? Repurpose the cabinets of course! And that’s just what we did, around 1 p.m. we got busy emptying out drawers and taking off the cabinets doors.

| The dreaded kitchen |
Nick took down all the cabinetry while I hauled everything out to our workspace in the garage. Before I could get busy sanding all the holes were filled in with hardy man wood filler.
 |
| A few doors off and only a few to go |
 |
| Everything cleared out |
Once all the doors came off we bagged all the food and moved the dish-ware into the living room aka make shift kitchen.
 |
| Our temporary kitchen |
I busted out our trusty Ryobi Orbit Sander and utilized the last bit of daylight, sanding all the drawers. 120 grit sand paper got the job done. I highly recommend purchasing a orbit sander if you already don’t own one. It’s super easy to use and does a decent job. I used the same sander on the farmhouse kitchen table we built.
Once 9 p.m. rolled around we decided to call it a night. Stay tune…..
Kitchen to-do’s:
- Sand all the cabinets doors
- Tape off the kitchen doors
- Remove remaining wall art
- Sand cabinets in the kitchen
- Hand sand molding along the top of the cabinets
- Prime drawers, doors and cabinets
- Paint drawers, doors and cabinets — two coats
- Paint all the baseboards and door trim to match the newly painted cabinets
- Purchase to pulls, knobs and hinges
- Install new pulls, knobs and hinges
- Install newly painted doors and drawers
- Change box lighting
- Purchase/ DIY blinds or curtains for window
- Move all our goods back into the kitchen
- Decide if we are changing the countertops
- Decide on a back splash if we change out the countertops
They are located in a variety of shades and colours and may match a great a number of kitchen furniture styles, coming from timber to metal items. For the granite tile kitchen countertops to keep its beauty for a long period, a daily maintenance is important.
