worth keeping? comes back every year
Comments (6)Whether it's worth keeping is a matter for you to decide. You say it comes back every year so you must have some idea of whether you like it or not by now. Lots of people DO like it, especially those who are interested in herbs. It is also a useful plant in that it tolerates some shade and is unfussy....See MoreHelp..Ants..Keep coming back !!!

Comments (21)Liri, it's very comforting to know that you think the space configuration between the 2 stoves will work well. I love it when someone has had 1st hand experience with what I'm trying to only imagine. Wow, I never would have guessed that a wood cookstove could be so hard to use. We have friends that have a newer Pioneer Maid, and know some Amish that have a nice Amish-made wood stove, and both folks love them. I'm sorry to hear you have to wait a while longer for your new kitchen! It's hard to wait! I guess that will make it that much sweeter when it is done, right. My heart goes out to those who have suffered from Hurricane Sandy. The devastation is awful. Thanks for chiming in Aimskitchen. Are you an Amy? I am. : ) I'd love to see your layout, did you post plans? Hooray for another scratch cooking big family! : ) And one that has allergy issues, to boot. My hat is off to you, that's not an easy job. Thanks for your encouraging words. I want this kitchen to function well and be a space we all want to spend time in, without getting under each other's toes. Lavender, that is too funny that you drew up that plan! Thank you. Do you know I sketched almost the exact same thing in my paint program?? DH and I stayed at a cabin for our anniversary that had a layout something like that, and I LOVED it. Here it is: : OK, it was dark as night in there (so glad there was a skylight over the island), and it wasn't GW standard, but it still worked incredibly well. The island was 8' x 24" (What? Doesn't everyone bring a tape measure with them on vacation?)and had open storage to the kitchen side. It was sooo efficient to cook in. Of course, I was only cooking for two, so I didn't get to give it a true test run. I loved having the table off to the side of the kichen, too. Nice! Anyone else want to chime in on which plan would be better? Things I like about the peninsula plan: 1.The cooks face windows when working at the peninsula. 2. Folks sitting at the bar face the back window (pretty view) and their stools are out. of. the. way. 2. There are 3 distinct countertop areas to work at: peninsula, island, and counter under window. 3. People can get in fridges w/out interrupting workers in the working zones. 4. Seats 4 at the peninsula. 5. Set space between stoves. Things I might not like in the peninsula plan: 1. Are the counters too small and chopped up? 2. Crossing a walkway to the fridges. 3. Will I get stuck behind the island? I don't like to be stuck! 4. No closet/pantry. Things I like about the island plan: 1. Mega island with lots of room to spread out. 2. Prep sink is nice and close to stoves 3. Fridges are mighty close to stoves, I am at the fridge a lot to get a little of this or that. 4. A CLOSET (or pantry, the way Lav. drew it.) Good heavens, we could use some closet space in this house. I don't even have a broom closet at this point! Things I might not like about the island plan: 1. The area between the island and fridge stove area is going to be narrow. Will it feel constrictive? 2. Working at the island faces toward the closet--boring. 3. Stools are in a major walkway. 4. Stoves are stuck together. 5. Can't do a susan or even drawer king in the corner. 6. Are there enough areas for multiple workers? Anyone else want to chime in on which plan would be better?...See More- 8 years ago
