December 3: Last light installed in mudroom. I'm wondering if I should have gotten one to match the one in the entry hall, but this *is* a pretty informal entrance, and I doubt we'll think about the light a great deal since it certainly doesn't look bad in there.

The continuing saga of the granite island: sealing it brought the color much closer to where it should be, but it still has those odd superficial white splotches that the trivet doesn't have (countertop is on the left here). The result is that the trivet looks smooth and organic, but the countertop doesn't, at least in my opinion.
