Paying penance for Thanksgiving fiasco...Sunday Dinner
Comments (7)Here it is Joann. I do have Patti's name beside it. You have to plan ahead, it sits overnight with the spices on it. I think I might cook it on foil, because of the caramelization. The roaster might be hard to clean otherwise. Sticky Chicken 3 lb roasting chicken 2 tsp salt 1 tsp paprika 3/4 tsp cayenne 1/2 tsp onion powder 1/2 tsp thyme 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/4 tsp pepper 1 cup chopped onion Combine spices. Rinse chicken and drain well. Rub spice mixture over skin and inside cavity. Place in resealable bag and refrigerate overnight. Stuff cavity with onions. Place breast-side down in roasting pan. Roast, uncovered at 250 degrees for 5 hours. Internal temp should reach 155 easily. Baste occasionally with pan juices, roasting until juices start to caramelize in bottom of pan and chicken is golden brown....See MoreMixing ceramic/porcelain wood look-a-alike tiles with real wood?
Comments (9)I had the same dilemna. I have golden oak floors throughout the rest of the house, but I wanted a darker floor in the kitchen. I would have loved an rustic, wide plank wood floor. This floor would not have matched the floors in the rest of the house and I was warned that the transitions from one floor to the other would not look so good by the saddles. In the end, I decided to go with the wood look tile because it works better with radiant heat than wood. I am so glad we did. Between the children and dog it was a good choice for us. I still have to stain the saddles at the two doorways that lead out of the kitchen, but it will be fine. If I used any floor other than golden oak, I would have the transition issue anyway. Love my tile floor! So easy to maintain....See MoreDesign Around This #5: Neo-Tuscan/TuscAmerican
Comments (116)Yes, exactly. The term "white kitchen" has been around a long, long time, and when I was a kid, a "white kitchen" could include aqua Formica or floral wallpaper or red linoleum floors or whatever. Oh-kay. I'll get to work on the post. Oh, I was thinking of not specifying the house style, just specifying what it was not. When did the sanitary movement really get going? I want a house that is not late Vic, Craftsman era or early '20s--nothing near Edwardian....See MoreWas Their Realtor Just Keeping It Real?
Comments (14)You can't as realtor or realtor's photographer just move around people's stuff. Not even the owner's stuff. That's why there are lots of disastrous real estate photos on the internet including people sitting on the sofa watching TV or lying in bed with the covers pulled over their heads. I've even been to open houses where there were people in their pajamas watching TV and eating out of a box of cereal. You'd think owners would do anything they could to help sell their property, but sometimes they are very blind to things. And a renter has absolutely no vested interest in seeing a property sold. They don't have to leave, here, unless the property is sold. They can stay as long as the property is available as a rental if they've been there over a year....See More
