Sounds like you have a home-one that is to be lived in, not just looked at.

I too have been pondering for months, in stagnation mode, because I just couldn't afford to cover all the walls of the whole milkroom with concrete board, much less try to lift and hang those heavy sheets myself. I wanted something really durable, that wouldn't budge if a cow kicked them, and walls that I can pressure hose down when it gets dirty, for time savings, convenience and sanitation.<br /> <br />Your backsplash picture, just solved my dilemma!<br /><br />Thank you for sharing all the charm and love of your thanksgiving bounty with us. <br /><br />Please give hugs to all, and wish them each a Blessed and Happy thanksgiving from me.<br /><br /><br />notutopiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294304458677955232.post-43645663676012775762011-11-24T14:08:52.680-08:002011-11-24T14:08:52.680-08:00I see a house full of love, and a house filled wit...I see a house full of love, and a house filled with character .

Sir Knight used it for years as his reloading table until I finally inherited it for my kitchen. It is solid, old growth oak with metal legs. I love it! It is the perfect kitchen island. It even has one handy drawer for this and that! And it is not too precious to drill holes into for mounting my grain grinder and pasta maker.<br /><br />Sidetracksusie;<br />I loved the story of your grandparents.

I am an Army brat and we lived in quarters my whole life. Your home reminds me of my grandparents homes, full of love and character, one of a kind everything because it was homemade with love. Our home was spartan and sterile because the government owned it and we took great care not to impart any of our own character on to it and frequent moves with weight restrictions limited what we owned. I loved what my father did, but oh how I flew out of the car and into my grandparents arms after the long drive for Thanksgiving. The smells, the comfortable knowledge that everything was going to be the same, the good food, the old comfy furniture, the wood stove, the pretty old scuffed linoleum, the houseplants, the outhouse, the warm soft laps of people I loved, the barn full of animals (where I got the only cat I had as a child), the chickens and the fresh eggs. How I loved to go to town with grandma where she could get a weeks or two of groceries in one brown bag because everything else was raised or grown at home. Often those store bought items were purchased because we were visiting and they included soda pop, a real treat because the four of us kids split one 16 ounce pop on Saturday night otherwise. Good memories, despite the fact I don't drink soda pop now.<br /><br />Happy Thanksgiving to you and blessings upon you and your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8294304458677955232.post-90718145746421737452011-11-24T06:10:35.127-08:002011-11-24T06:10:35.127-08:00Happy Thanksgiving, Enola!

I have cases of ramen noodles, millions of cans of everything else. I wish someone would make canned or MRE pizza's with a 30 year lifespan. I would be set for life.<br /><br />I will sit on the sofa and watch the first part of "The Empire Strikes Back" eating pizza. I think the old Darth Vader is just so cool in the old star wars movies. <br /><br />No snow to move here in South Texas.
