Yes, you have a good eye. Unfortunately, Aya no longer has a distributor on the East Coast so I will have to pick up doors in Toronto. They have been great about pricing doors and answering my many questions, but I don't think I can carry more than one wall of doors back down in my minivan full of kids and hubby, so I was thinking of getting the island and desk area in a dark stain locally to complement the glazed latte doors that I currently have. If the door styles are similar but not exact, I think that will work.

oldbat, I don't have any particular place to get the wire mesh sheets for the cabinet doors yet. I know I'm doing it but I have other decisions to make before I get to that! I may end up just doing a dark colored chicken wire, but will decide later what I end up doing. I have googled numerous times "wire mesh/grille for cabinet doors" & have come up w/ many places that sell it. I want to say you might even be able to order some from one of the big box stores - Home Depot, Lowes, etc. If you have a builders supply store in your area, I bet they either carry it or can order it for you. I've run across one on the internet that is in the UK that has some beautiful ones. Add "UK" to your search & my guess is it'll come up. I'm sure whatever you do will turn out great because the cabinet is such a pretty one!

Possibly Chickweed, a plant that grows best in a soil that lawns really like, a rich, near neutral soil. Chickweed is a cool weather annual and so it will die off as temperatures rise. Your Ohio State University Cooperative Extension Service can be of help as could this from Penn Sate. http://extension.psu.edu/pests/weeds/weed-id/common-chickweed kimmq is kimmsr

Very gravid(pregnant) and harmless female Northern Water Snake(Nerodia sipedon). These feed on fish and amphibians and are harmless, although if grabbed or handled roughly, they will bite in self-defense and spray foul-smelling musk. She is probably seeking a sheltered spot to give birth, since she looks like she's about to explode! I keep and breed several species of Nerodia, including these, as pets, and they tame down very quickly if handled gently. You have nothing to worry about from this girl.
