ZOMG, Hardwood Floors!

As part of the kitchen makeover project, we've been planning to put in some faux wood laminate flooring from Ikea. Today, we were finalizing the plans, one part of which was, "Can we install this over the nasty linoleum we currently have, or do we need to pull that up first?" M decided to do some further investigation of what was buried under the linoleum -- it was a layer of plywood. Under that was more linoleum; under that was tar paper and glue.

And under that are the same awesome oak floors we have in the rest of our downstairs. Woo hoo!
