Anyone have the Kohler Parq Deck-Mount Bridge Faucet?
Comments (0)I haven't seen it in a picture of a kitchen, only on Kohler's website. I am wondering if it will be a good match, style wise. I'm trying for a traditional look, white shaker cabinets and a farm house sink, lighting from restoration hardware, white subway tiles. I would like the kitchen to look vintage-y, but with a more modern feel (stainless appliances). I am also wondering what the proportions will be like. Our window will be 5' wide but only 41" high. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to go with the taller (47") window. Thanks!...See MoreAt our Christmas party I finally tasted pbutter Frito's
Comments (18)This is what I make Caramel cheetos 2 cups light brown sugar 1 cup margarine (not butter, must use margarine) 1/2 cup light corn syrup 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1 - 21 oz. pkg. Crunchy style Cheetos (check the size of bag, reg. size is 10 1/2 oz.) Directions: Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Mix sugar, margarine and corn syrup in pan. Bring to a boil, boil 5 minutes, stirring often. Spray with baking spray a deep roasting pan, 10x14 inches. Put Cheetos in pan, spread out. Remove pan from heat, and add soda. Use a sieve if the baking soda is lumpy. Stir until light in color. Pour the mixture over Cheetos and stir, coating each piece. Place in oven. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Immediately pour onto wax paper, or cookie sheets sprayed with baking spray. (This is the hard part.) Very quickly spread out as thin as possible. If this doesn't happen, the mixture will harden into a huge blob. After about 5 minutes, pull/break these apart even more and loosen from the pan/wax paper. If you don't, you have wax paper stuck to them. It's best to make a batch at a time, or stagger the baking times, because of how quickly you have to work when they come out of the oven. This stores easily in a Ziploc bag, if you have any left. ;o)...See MoreTaste in music / taste in design
Comments (19)Frank Lloyd Wright was hugely influenced by music. It's generally agreed that there were five main influences on Lloyd Wright's architecture: nature, Louis Sullivan, Japan, Friedrich Froebel and music. Wright himself stated "Music and architecture blossom on the same stem—sublimated mathematics. Mathematics as presented by geometry. Instead of the musician’s systematic staff and intervals, the architect has a modular system as a framework of design. My father, a preacher and music teacher, taught me to see—to listen—to a symphony as an edifice of sound. All my lifetime I have listened to Beethoven—especially—as the master architect of all time: the most profound student of Nature known—one whose inspired imaginative resource is beyond comparison. I am grateful to music and to him for genuine refreshment in architecture—my field of creative endeavor. Dissonance will take care of itself." Beethoven and Bach played a significant role. But he was also heavily influenced by his father, W. Carey Wright, a composer himself, Unitarian hymns and popular turn of the century parlor songs....See MoreDesperately need help with edging style for our quartz countertops
Comments (15)I have had the ogee edge for over 2 years with no problems (or crud) and no extra charge. However, the sink is the one place I do not have it. I was going to get the two handled bridge faucet till I saw how much water dripped on the counter from wet hands at my sisters house, and at the same time my then current two handle faucet was making me crazy - needing two hands all the time. I turned my single handle towards the front of my polished nickel faucet to help keep water off the counter. https://www.houzz.com/photos/my-pics-work-in-progress-phvw-vp~58831076...See MoreUser
