My Bin...One Month Later
Comments (1)Anita...I can say my worm bin is doing great too! I purchased a Worm Factory Composting System and have it sitting in my laundry room just off the kitchen. I throw in food scraps such as coffee grounds, fruit and vegetable waste. The Red Wigglers have nearly tripled in population in less than 60 days! The compost and worm tea they are generating is great for the garden and house plants. Reba "Worm Factory"...See MoreAppliances 10 months later.
Comments (4)Your post came at an opportune time for me as I am trying to work out my appliance needs. I have already bought the Gaggenau convection and combi steam ovens and have been wondering what to do about a microwave. I only use it to reheat and defrost, never for cooking (except oatmeal). I had wondered about getting a speed oven but am beginning to think this is overkill. Do you wish you had another small oven or do you feel that the combi steam fills that roll? How easy is it to reach in and clean the mw drawer? And finally, how wide is the dacor drawer? Thanks!...See MoreToday, 8 1/2 Months Later.
Comments (11)xnightowl, "The Naked Butt," picture is one of our favorites! It brings a smile to my face and I'm looking forward to, years and years from now, showing it off to his dates. We are closer to Brookhurst and Banning(The last light before PCH),so we are only a couple of miles from where you used ot live. I have a friend who lives in the neighborhood behind the north-east corner of Brookhurst and Adams. Our pool is probably in the low seventies on most days now, but it is a full southern exposure and is exposed to the sun all day long. Because our pool is so small, probably 10 - 12 thousand gallons, it only takes a couple of hours to heat to the mid 80's, and another hour or so to reach 90. Remembering from last year, I don't think our most expensive gas bill ever went over $120.00 or so. And since we used to have an older pool with old equipment, everthing seems to be much more efficient! Our electric bill on the other hand is really expensive. We don't have air conditioning, just ceiling fans, and our bill is regularly 300.00 a month. OUCH! Have a great summer and enoy your pool, Mike...See MoreNine months later, with apologies - my kitchen reveal
Comments (94)Oops, sorry for the very delayed response, MGMum and gemcap :-(. Thank you for your kind comments . MGMum: Of course I don't mind, I'm tickled white! ;-) gemcap: Thanks for your warm wishes, really appreciate it! Yes, we are truly enjoying our kitchen - a year later. Clean-up's the best part - so easy and such a pleasure! Yes, I did put in a great deal of thought into this kitchen and researched a great deal, too. Thanks for intuiting that! ;-)...See Morecj47
