<p>I have also started the kitchen remodeling process. We are going with quartz - we replaced our counter tops 26 years ago with laminate, and it’s just time to update to something that won’t chip and is easy to care for. We are replacing our cabinets, too, and will probably go with hickory. Oh, and new flooring, too. The plans are still in the early stages, and I don’t even want to know what it’s going to cost. We are good about doing the most for the least, but some things just cost more money than I want to part with.</p>
