Kitchen Remodel Provokes Memories

We're having our kitchen redone. And before the new floor, cabinets, counters, and appliances go in, the old ones have to be torn out.

I got a look at our kitchen after the first day the work crew got started in earnest. This is what I saw:

Noooooo! That kitchen was was... was... full of character! OK, I admit that it kinda needed remodelling, but there is no way a new, efficient, soulless new kitchen is going to be like the old one! Bwaaahhhh!

Anna, the counters and cabinets will be new, but the kitchen will still pick up plenty of soul from Debbie and Alan and their guests.

Anna, trust me, this is not a soul-less remodel.

Alan, I can absolutely see the parallels. I hope you can also see the differences in intent and effect.

I can see the differences in intent and effect; it's just that my amygdala is not quite clear on the concept.
