Comments (9)I stopped to see a Merbau 5" wide floor 3 miles from my home in a store installed in a showroom which has the mosaic look in colors and I was surprised it was 5" wide since when all the boards were installed nicely, it was beautiful and did not look wide. I am happy now. This floor was the same as my neighbors that is floated. I took my shoes off and it made me realize that I would be happy with a floated or glued down floor after all. The install price will be about $1000 more for the Merbau than the great price I got for the BR-111 Brazilian Cherry so I will try to stop obsessing about what the floor will look like and anticipate soon this always dirty beige carpet will be gone and I will have a pretty hardwood floor....See MoreButter - is it like flour?
Comments (23)I use Costco Butter as a primary staple butter and it is decent and we like it. My favorite butters, that I pay a higher price for are Challenge or Tillamook when I can get them. Costco does carry an Irish Butter that is very, very rich, but it isn't my favorite. The very best butter both of us have ever had was in Colorado. We went to Breckenridge in the summer for a music festival a few years ago and the bed and breakfast we stayed at had the most deliciously creamy buttery butter to spread on our toast and she used it in I think everything. I asked the woman who did the cooking what she used. It was an dairy from Denver that supplied them. I think it was called Royal Crown or something like that. Since then, I have found that if you can get a local dairy that has a store, their butter is usually pretty good. When we went to Amarillo, Texas to visit with some family who used to live there, we used Braum's Butter. It was delicious and I really noticed how good my eggs fried in it were! I am not a big baker, so I am not sure what the difference is in a higher quality butter does to a recipe, but I do notice the difference with lower quality 'watery' butters. They will wreck a perfectly good recipe!...See MoreColor variations in flooring: Am I making a mistake?
Comments (26)Wood tiles are those porcelain tiles that look like they're wood, right? When they stand on it its hard surface, won't renters know its a porcelain tile? The problem is that I already have porcelain tile in the rest of the first floor so I kind of feel that more porcelain tile in the living room would be too much tile and too cold. The whole floor would be tiled if I tiled the living room. And, the whole grout thing is such a hassle that nobody tells you about when they say how maintenance-free tile will be. If I had do it all over again, I would have put those wood porcelain tiles in the kitchen and adjacent dining room instead of the current porcelain tile. Or, if I was in Florida, I think I might get away with that much tile. But, from what I've read, the rest of the country prefers more of a wood or warmer surface in the living room. http://massrealestatenews.com/what-types-of-flooring-do-home-buyers-prefer/ I don't want to make the mistake of another rental nearby who over-tiled the place to the extent that its hurting them find a renter. (I also think its hurting them that they make applicants jump through a lot of hoops before they will even show the place.) But, they're making a point of showing all the tiles in the place in Craigslist because I think the landlord got sick of showing it to all these people who would end up turning it down when they saw all the tile in the rental....See Morebbstx
