Henrietta, NY - What to do while we are there...
Comments (3)I used to live near Rochester, and went to school in Geneseo (south of Rochester). I don't know much about shopping/eating in town there any more. But, if you're down south of the city, Tom Wahl's in Avon has been making incredible burgers, and homemade ice cream and root beer, since 1955. They also have new locations around Rochester since I lived there (see www.tomwahls.com). And if you get a chance to see Letchworth State Park (near Mt. Morris/Nunda), it's lovely. I'm sure others there can point you to great places closer in to the city for food/shopping. Laurel...See MoreI MUST decide within a couple hours!! White or Biscuit?
Comments (17)"Anyway, I'm using Daltile hexagon floor tile, they come in a Matte Biscuit, for the walls I have 3 choices..." Guess I was in such a hurry I didn't fully explain myself. Subway Tile is what my question was about.. for the wall around the tub and shower. Cabinet color is custom, and I've been struggling with the "right" white for months now, I think I tend to "overthink" everything. That said, thanks everyone.. I have decided to go with white and NOT biscuit. Paint color - not concerned with at this point, it can be changed easy enough, but the tile and cabinets not so much! 2) This seems like it is not a sustainable life, if you cannot even stop and think. Sometimes it might be helpful to reconsider goals and timelines.... tell me about it, I know it's not an ideal life at this moment, but we bought the old house, already sunk in a great deal of money, and there is no turning back at this point. (wish I could) There are things that need to be done, and we have actually looked to hire people, and they are just lazy or crazy. The lazy ones never show up, and the crazy ones want 5 times as much as they should get, so that leaves us stuck doing what has to be done!...See MoreBarocca soapstone looks like Ray Liotta after 2 hours.

Comments (121)Marcolo, this isn't necessarily for you, but for someone who might be considering linoleum type counters in the future. When we were first married, we lived in an old farmhouse that had red lino floors, and red lino counters, perfect U shape postwar remodel, sigh. (It looked like they used the cutout of the floor to do the counters!) I don't know if the problems came with the age of the lino, or what, but every time I tried to lift something warm up off the counter, it would stick fast. So, things like a bowl of soup or a bowl of oatmeal would stick. When I'd finally pry the bowl up, a small chunk of linoleum would be stuck to the bottom of the bowl. Yuck! We were very happy when we could replace those counters with some laminate. I hope you find that durable finish you are after. Have to wonder if hard wood countertops might be a good option. I think they'd still give you somegrounding with the colors you are considering. This kitchen is especially bright, is it grounded enough?...See MoreWithin The Next 24 Hours..........
