tamileeb: I've had mine for about 3 years now and I do like cooking on it. The only thing I didn't like was how those daisy burners concentrated the heat in the center of the pan, but I got a 20$ cast iron enameled heat diffuser ring from Amazon and that solved the problem. If you do a turkey for Thanksgiving, you should try it with the gas turned off. Preheat @ 500 for 20 mins, then turkey in and leave the gas on for about 15 more minutes (going from memory here) shut it down and let 'er go. I think I had to re-fire it after 3 hrs for about 10 minutes or so but I figure I cooked a 20# turkey with about 45 minutes of gas. Pretty amazing stuff. I'm liking the shape of that last hood, too. Think it's getting close!

I've painted the tile and frame on a drop basment ceiling and it looked like a new ceiling . Take down the tile to paint them. Don't forget to number them and put them back in the same spot. Even though they are the same size over time they do expand /contract and conform to the space they are in. Otherwise it is like putting back a jigsaw puzzle. Been there done it and it wasn't fun finding out what fit where.

My newest dillema! I cannot afford to replace my countertops, backsplash or floors at the moment so I am forced to work with the ugliness. i need to choose a color to paint my cabinets. I want something in the cream family, and these are two colors that i am contemplating. They are both Sherwin Williams and the the left side is called Steamed Milk, the right side is called Creamy. In the top photo i have Steamed Milk on the bottom half of the cabinet, and Creamy on the top. I plan on changing the hardware out to a champagne gold knob and possibly pull for the drawers when I am finished. What do you think?
