Where did you find those Minnie? I think I am missing something here!! Laughing.. Thanks Nebgranny98

Yes-thanks everyone for your help. Gardengirl..I had spent 2 days trying to find a plain tag/label thingy AND a 'milker' (cow) LOL..to print and paste on a tag-then lo & behold-there appeared your link and what should appear? The tag WITH the cow on it. Thanks for helping everyone..Jodi at the KT completed my tag for me. Now I must look forward to making the cow pies! (choc-peanut butter no bake cookies...dozens of them.)

Oh, Karen, I'm so sorry....They have moved their pages and left the old ones up. Try this: Jumping Jacks I check the Jacks at the bottom and they are all there. Just for grins follow that index link to the Toy Theater info. I found some printable theaters here: Printable Stages

Lav: It's just that fridge and big sink on that wall seem to eat up all the countertop. Plus, the fridge needs like, 4" minimum clearance against a fixed wall... I wish that wall were a little longer cause I'd love to have the fridge to the left of the sink like that. I always seem to want to prep to the left of the sink. I don't know if I can change that habit, can I? I get having a prep sink closer to the stove, but this copper sink is made for prep with the cutting board that sits on the ledge and the drain tray. Not to mention that after what that thing cost, DH will probably throw up if I mention getting another sink, lol. Bellsmom: I was told that having the whole wall open is a problem with structural stuff. That's why DH wants a rustic railing with upright beams in part of the opening. I can't tell exactly but the island makes the walk around about 30"... seems too close to the step down for safety? Rosie: Your words are food for thought. I am definitely a sink/window prepper. I tend to live in front of the sink for some reason. Don't really see myself doing too much between the fridge and stove (in the original layout) And, as I said above, I tend to want to work to the left of the sink. Angie's idea is very appealing though. I like the smaller area to cook in and less walking around. I like the fridge out of the main area, so anyone can get something without, 'excuse me'. The one thing DH does is make adult beverages (killer old fashioneds for those familiar with Wisconsinites) and we're always in each others way when that happens. I thought a bar sink over by the window could double as a kind of prep sink and I'd have mondo storage over there, too. But, it does close up the room somewhat, at least for traffic, but maybe not in a bad way. Idaho: thanks for the info and I was kinda thinking that empty corner could be a safe cubby or something like that. Keep our Cracken in there, lol. Marcolo: are you saying to leave the fridge as it is in Angies plan? I'll have to play around with that configuration, too. Thank you...
