Time To Make My Birthday Pie/Dessert - Any Suggestions?
Comments (21)Thank you again for all the recipes and well wishes. As long as berries are in season, I will continue to try them out. We have a parade of guests scheduled to visit through Labor Day who will be grateful to sample them ;) I ended up going with Olychick's Fresh Raspberry Glacé Pie. I had a barely-worked, perfectly crimped crust in the pie pan ready to chill before baking. I tipped it sideways over the sink to brush off a tiny bit of flour that was on it and..plunk..it plopped out of the plate. I made a quick save & caught it in my hand but reworking it back onto the plate made it look less than perfect. Nonetheless, it was delicious and met with rave reviews from my family who came to celebrate!...See MoreMy husband says it's time to make a decision......
Comments (46)If this is new construction, are the windows not already manufactured with some type of ray blocking technology? We recently had our upper level deck stripped and the decking replaced. While the decking was off, the sun shone into the glass patio door on the floor below. I had never noticed how the light looked so differnet as it filtered through that glass door because the upper level deck had always prevented direct sunlight. The glow that it cast into the room was slightly harsh and greenish. This is an Anderson door and it has treated glass. Is your glass already treated to filter the rays of the sun? As an opinion about your shades----by all means, make them to blend with your walls as much as possible. Any shade that has color to it will reflect that color onto everything in the room, And, I feel quite certain that you do not want that....See MoreAfter 22 years if marriage, NOW he wants to make time for us?
Comments (4)Not me, but a friend from church many years ago said that she could not figure out how she ever managed to wash dishes, sweep floors, and cook without her husband's constant micromanagement. (Husband had just retired.) I think her situation did improve, but not on its own. She was very involved in a lot of neighborhood, community, and church activities. Ran the church nursery, volunteered at a nearby public elementary school, sewed for the public, and produced plays for the church! He did get involved with some of her Productions, but I think she also strongly pushed him to develop Hobbies. And no, you do not need to coddle him or be grateful to him for the sudden burst of attention. That behavior has a great deal to do with him and, I would guess, not a lot to do with you....See MoreCovid Isolation is making me hate my laundry room!!
Comments (12)I had a similar dilemma and purchased stackable washer/dryer. Keep three things in mind before you settle on a stackable: - How tall are you? I was interested in a stackable, but when I "tried one" at the store I realized it isn't for short people like me. It just wouldn't be easy for me personally to use. - Those front-loaders (whether they're stacked or not) are space hogs. They're really deep. Since this space already exists, measure carefully and be sure you'll have a comfortable work space left. - Consider how you'll pull out the heavy machines to clean the lint /keep the dryer fire-safe. Your bench and shoe shelves look great! Yes, love the bench and shoe rack. Thoughts: - Could you use the blind corner space for emergency supplies stored in boxes? It looks like a space that's difficult-but-not-impossible to access. - I've never had /never wanted a laundry sink, but I don't think I'd want to pay to remove it. I think I'd get a large wooden sink-cover, which would make the sink into a folding area. - What are you storing under the sink? Are you making the most of that storage? - This is a very small thing, but -- given that this is a work space -- I'd hang the zebra picture on the wall, opening up a small bit of space. - What are you storing in all those upper cabinets? Are you making the most of that storage? - I don't love the drying-hanger. It seems to block access to the machines....See More- 6 years ago
