Main Bathroom, glass vessel sink EXPLODED
Comments (49)This forum popped up after I wanted to see if I’m the only one whose vessel sink exploded. Omgosh what a crazy experience!! We’ve had it for 15 yrs and as my daughter was brushing her teeth getting ready for work BAM! Lou’s and forceful. Thank goodness her head was up or she’d no doubt have cuts in her eyes. She only sustained minor cuts on her arms. This is a “never again” for me. It was cute but nope, boring sinks from now on....See MoreRising bread dough in the refrigerator
Comments (11)No doubt whatso ever that refrigerated dough tastes better than just made stuff. The recipe I have used for years and my mother before me and she got the recipe from an elderly neighbor, is called "refrigerator rolls" and you are to mix the dough, refrigerate it in a "refrigerator pan"...which was a white enamel ware rectangular keeper with a sliding top that fit into a shelf on the refrigerator....came with the refrigerator! And about 2 hours before dinner, cut off pieces of dough, shape the rolls, let rise and abke....and they just get better and better as the week goes on!! It was my job as a little kid....maybe 6 or 7 to shape the little balls of dough for cloverleaf rolls, and I took great delight in now and then making a surprise "4 leaf clover"! LOL! But the warmth of your hands as you shape the rolls helps to warm it. But you are making dozens and dozens! Not 6 little cloverleaf rolls! If you want to "age" your dough make it on friday to rest on Saturday and pull out of the frig Saturday afternoon shape and bake saturday evening and re heat in the AM... And remember to make a bitty pan for your own bedtime treat! Linda C...See MoreFirst time raising GF cats, what to provide for it to pupate?
Comments (3)I am happy to report that the caterpillar finally settled down in one spot, and as of this morning, has entered the J shape stage! This is my first time posting here and I’m amazed how quickly you all got back to me - thank you both! Tom I had read of them chrysalising on lids of containers, but I made these open ones by cutting large gallon water bottles so my toddler and I could watch - I think it might be better to at least have a lid that can be attached next time. Four, I never thought of inverting it though that’s a good idea! You are right about adding the stick outside, I was just giving it MORE new places to crawl to and check out! Funnily enough, about the cloth, I ended up placing a tall floor lamp by it and draping a few towels thinking it’d feel more secure from predators, and it finally stopped wandering. Thanks so much for the information, because part of what I was trying to find out was if I limit the area it has access to is that okay and will it just “sooner recognize available space“ as you said. I was worried if it didn’t have a specific surface it wouldn’t pupate. Thank you for letting me know to enclose it for protection - I hadn’t thought of it but it would be terrible if some ants got to it or something!...See MoreUnder Cabinet lighting, outlets,& Single Bowl Workstation Sink options
Comments (32)I never use my colander or wood cutting board. Plastic goes in the dishwasher, but wood does not. My workstation extras are in the garage gathering dust. Here is an idea... Most people do not use both double ovens except for once or twice a year. You could skip the double oven and use a 6 burner stove/oven with no drawers below. Put a microwave drawer to the left or right of the stove/oven and your deep pots and pans drawers on the other side. You may want to consider a different vent hood so you have cabinet space above the stove. I would hate to clean that open vent hood and its chimney pipe all the way to the ceiling and on a ladder with my bad back. I love the look of your vent hood plans, but I am too practical (or lazy?). Move refrigerator over a little to create a tall 24" deep cabinet for a vacuum or broom or cleaning supplies, large kitchen items... The other side of refrigerator could also be 24" deep and hold your food items. (No countertop.) You could use a counter depth refrigerator. I love mine because it is shallower and I don't lose stuff in there. You already have a water line there because of your washer so your ice maker can get connected. The cabinets on the dining room wall could be tall with no countertop or you could move the sink and dishwasher there. I like an island with nothing on it so I would hate a sink on my island. The island could be moved back where it does not begin until the corner. That means you do not have dead space. The dishwasher and sink could go on the island with bar stools or regular chairs right before you get to the light switches and the exterior door. I have very little countertop space in my kitchen because it would be full of crap. I have landing areas for hot things from the oven and the rangetop, for refrigerator things, and for dishwasher things. I have a raised dishwasher which opens up at waist level. Easier on my back. Mixers, food processors, Dutch ovens, Instant Pot, electric can opener, and other large items go in 24" deep cabinets. I have to move my mixer, etc to the island to use them, but that is good exercise since my mixer weighs 25 lbs. If money grew on trees, I would do this... ... Move the breakfast room and roof line back 4-5 ft to be even with the new living room? The two corner walls are load bearing so you would have a 4-5 ft wall between the living room and breakfast room and you would lose the living room door to the deck. Upside down L shape. The breakfast room door would be at the end near the railing. That gives you 4-5 ft more space and a view of the living room. You could put the sink and dishwasher on the deck wall and have an island which faces the new living room. Seating at the island could be with bar stools, or that part of the island could be lower, and regular chairs could be used. Keep the tall windows because of the wonderful light coming in, and you still have a walkway to the exterior door to the deck. You are so lucky your house is giving you many options. Most kitchens don't have closets and laundry areas that you can remove. I can't wait to see what you decide to do. I know it will be amazing....See Moreebean
