[quote=Anonymous]Do you have an outdoor grill? We ended up using that 90% of the time for cooking. It was just easier.

Washing dishes is the worst part. I limited everyone to one plate, one fork, one cup, and theoretically they were supposed to wash their own. We also had a plastic dishpan to collect dishes and transport them to the bathroom for washing. Pans were really hard to wash in the bathroom sink which is part of why I just used the grill constantly. We also ate a lot of sandwiches and takeout.

I would probably set up the kitchen in your basement, especially if you have a sink down there.

Also, the plastic does an Ok job of protecting the living areas from dust, but it is not perfect. Put anything extra away before construction begins (throw pillows, knick knacks, consider rolling up carpets). Anything you leave out may need to be cleaned afterward. Think about where the guys will store the supplies and materials they will be using in the kitchen. In our case that was the dining room, so that wasn't really usable either.

By a month in you will be so sick of it, but it ends eventually and then you forget about the process. Good luck.[/quote]
