Lilies -esp Oriental ,fragrant, esp. dwarf

Pole Beans: Celebration, Borlotto -Firetongue
Sweet Peppers: Mini Bell mix, Sweet Tasty Grill Celebration, Topgirl, Carmen, Redskin, Mohawk, Karma, Sweet Pickle, Sweet Cherry Pick

Miss V., If you don't mind trading with a newbie, I have the following that are not on your list. Do any interest you?: Okra 'Southern Belle' - Okra is part of the lily family and this grows a classy-looking plant that makes excellent pickles 'Wando' peas 'Greasy Bean' pole bean - a good local heirloom flavor. Eggplant 'Burpee Hybrid' - grow it like a determinate tomato 'Explosive Ember' Hot peppers - a gorgeous dark purple plant with peppers that turn from dark purple to white to orange. Cilantro Watermelon - a big sweet red fleshed variety my family has been re-growing for the last several years. Tomatoes - three varieties of open-pollinated heirloom varieties. I would add a note of warning that these have not been checked yet for germination. I am currently checking them now. If any of the above interest you, I would be interested in: 'Little fingers' carrots cayenne peppers Honey Rock melon Hailstone radishes 'Lincoln' peas 'Black Beauty' zuchinni' 'Golden Wax' beans guava If any of your corn varieties above are a popping variety or if you have any edible seed sunflowers left that you offered earlier, I would also be interested in those.

Great Treefrog, would you like a chump of my tomatoe stake plant (bamboo)? :-) It is really usefull around here.... I would love the papaya. If you still have any red sugar apple left I would like one. (This are self polynating right?, I already have one regular one growing, have not had fruit yet). What else can I bring for you? Veronika Tony, are those self polynating variety? I would not mind having 2 varieties growing. I may have a avocado seedling. It self started under our avocado tree, it is about 2ft now. Our tree is the large fruit with smooth skin, very very tasty!!! I will look at it more closely tomorrow and see if it can be dug up. This (I think) is the variety: http://www.tropicalfruitnursery.com/avocado-viewer/pages/Simmonds.htm

Husband wants to put 20 y/o fridge back in renovated kitchen. HELP!
Q
Comments (105)
Let me be the contrarian here. If you need to cut back somewhere, the fridge is an obvious place to start. It's easily replaceable at a later date, and, as others on GW have observed, the fridge is the appliance that gives you the least bang for your buck. I see no conflict in buying an expensive range and keeping an old fridge. Our kitchen renovation ran well into six figures (not including appliances) and we spent another $14K on a Wolf rangetop, M Series oven and CSO, but decided to keep our 3 y.o. KitchenAid dishwasher, and 25 y.o. Hotpoint fridge. Both my wife and I think the kitchen looks quite nice this way. I'd be happy to post a picture if someone could tell me how to do it (I click photo and click on the picture, but nothing seems to happen). In any event, our new kitchen layout precluded re-using our old Thermador range (even though it was in perfect shape), so cooking appliances were the obvious area to devote to our rapidly-dwindling resources. My wife didn't think it was worth the extra $1,000 to get a CSO instead of a double oven, but I ultimately convinced her it was worth a shot. She still prefers the M Series, so the CSO is "my" oven and the M Series is "hers". The dishwasher decision came next. I would love to get a Miele Pro Series DW at some point, as it can do a load in 25 minutes, but at $5K it's pretty pricey. Our KitchenAid runs fine, so we decided to re-use it, but have a 220V receptacle installed under the sink. So, a future upgrade to a Miele will be pretty simple. Finally decisions had to be made about a refrigerator. Our fridge space goes into a cubby in the mud room, so we're lucky in that we can accommodate either a counter depth or a full-depth fridge. Neither my wife nor I could see the point in spending $8K on a SZ or other high-end fridge, when $2K will provide you with a fridge that works almost as well and has more storage space, so we ruled out a counter-depth pretty quickly. There were 2 main reasons why we decided to keep our old fridge, at least for the time being. The first is my concern about noise and reliability. Our 25 y.o. Hotpoint is very quiet and has had exactly one service call in 25 years (by contrast our 3 new Wolf appliances have had a total of 7 service calls in just 4 months). My perception is that newer appliances just aren't built as well as they used to be. We have to keep our GE washer & dryer under maintenance contracts, as they seem to crap out at least once a year, whereas our old Whirlpool ran over 20 years without a problem. Also after reading reviews of even highly-rated refrigerators, I get the impression that new fridges are much noisier than the old ones. Someone told me that this is because the new energy-efficient compressors make a lot of noise. On second thought, maybe I shouldn't be too concerned about this, as the fan on our Wolf M Series sounds like a jet engine once the oven gets hot. Most of our meals are spent with that thing howling in the background. Maybe the biggest reason for keeping the old fridge though, was due to a simple matter of aesthetics. My wife doesn't like having too much stainless steel in the kitchen, and all of the better full depth fridges only seem top come in that. Our old fridge is a nice cream color with black accents on the handles that perfectly matches our Kohler Biscuit sinks. The closest you can get to this color nowadays seems to be a "bisque" color, that is monotone and way too yellow for my taste. So we decided to keep our old fridge in the hope that something more to our liking comes out before this one decides to kick the bucket. We took a 3 week vacation during construction and left the fridge powered off and closed, which was a big mistake. We almost decided to chuck the fridge when we came back and discovered it was full of mold. It took almost a full day of scrubbing with Clorox, but it ended up looking almost new again. The same thing happened again, when the carpenters took the fridge out for the floor refinishing. They took the doors off this time and covered the fridge in plastic. We returned to find the worst of both worlds - the fridge was full of both sawdust and mold. In the end, both my wife and I are happy with our decision to keep the old fridge. We know its days are numbered, but will be sad to see it go.
