Thanks, Carol. I can see that now, and so I tried adding it again. Originally it would show up for me in the preview but then it would show as blank. I've been having a lot of trouble with Houzz for the past two or three days, especially with posting photos, links, and emojis. I might have to try a different browser - I'm using Firefox at the moment. ETA: Same problem when I tried using Chrome, and so that's not it!

Floral, she was pretty much a ’purist’ as I understood the article, and apparently couldn’t quite wrap her head around the idea of cutting up a chicken into pieces prior to cooking them. Many of her original recipes called for a whole chicken. But she quickly came around. I’m sorry i can’t recall the source right now, it was one of those random articles regarding her beloved recipes. I may have kept it, and will look. edited to add, found the quote, which was from Julia… "When I was living in France in the early 1950s, cut-up chicken was unheard of.

Mine is long and narrow leading out into our attached garage. But it has a nice, organized walk-in closet with shelves for laundry,donations, etc. on one side of it, and clothing rods , shelves and drawers on the other for outerwear, my purses, etc. In the laundry room itself, there are also cabs for laundry supplies, extra dinnerware storage, and a second pantry cab. I inherited my grandmother’s Cottageware and Fruitware collections fom our summerhouse on the lake that I absolutely loved as a kid growing up. The rest of our home is decorated New Mexican, but my laundry room is decorated with my Cottage and Fruitware, as well as framed photos and memorabilia from my childhood there at our summerhouse. Not fancy, but totally mine and I love it.
