Electricity

In 1600, William Gilbert, a physician in the court of Queen Elizabeth I, coined the word electricity. Thank goodness those who came after persisted in harnessing this amazing power.

Brett the Electrician arrived this morning to connect all the appliances and some of the outlets. He apologized for not returning sooner. He is working on two large commercial projects: a tattoo parlor and a Turkish restaurant. He promised that he would return next week to finish connecting the rest of the outlets and to install the two remaining light fixtures in the kitchen.

Strangely, I ended up being the first one to cook in the new kitchen. Let's hope it tastes as good as it looks.
