I always like to plant Yukon Gold, Kennebec, and Red Pontiac. Although they are multi-use potatoes, I rather like the YG for mashed, the Kennebec for baked, and the red Pontiac for soup, stews, and boiled. I have planted German Fingerling that were delicious but too small for all the work. I...

My daughter-in-law is as talented an artist as my son is a carpenter. Here is a wall painting in the children's bedroom. When they moved I rented the property. I sure wonder what these walls look like 6 years later.

Wonder Woman you might be! If I got half your list done I'd stop and thank all my helpers before taking a long break.

Thank you. Yes, he does a good job. He works for "Schuler's Fine Furniture" in Janesville, WI where you can see some of the many types of pieces he has made. Son builds out of our woodworking shop since we have better machines, set up, and more space than the small company has. Almost...

One of my goals is to serve Thanksgiving dinner with everything on the table grown or raised on my property. I enjoy gardening. I enjoy using what I grow. I enjoy being a good steward of my land. But most of all I am cheap (frugal?) with a deeply developed sense of guilt (parochial school!)...

I haven't been around here long enough to have a lot of praises to sing. I do know there has been a feeling of camaraderie and helping on this site with none of the judgmental infighting I have found on other message boards.

Here's the Christmas present our son made for Dad. Now we need to re-felt the table and sides, finish the basement, and add wiring for lights. Hum! That's a lot of work. It would have been easier to "just say no" to this beautiful piece.

Hi, Neiklot! Glad you decided to speak up and let us get to know you/let you get to know us. I am married to a hunter, fisherman, outdoorsman who has never hunted, fished or traipsed through the wilds since we met 45 years ago. Want to hear more about your Torp.

Sure is quiet on this forum. Everybody working on projects? We are re-doing the 1832 Victorian-ish house my son lives in. After son took the plaster down to the ceiling joists and outside walls we came to insulate and put up the drywall. Son insists he can't "do" drywall compound and make it...

DS bought an 1836 house a few years back. Paid way too much for it, but DIL fell in love with all the wood. So far not much has been redone aside from the kitchen. Together they managed to create a modern kitchen with the look of 1840's -- Beautiful! There is still plenty to do inside and out on...

Sounds great, Montyj! We lived in the basement (nightmare) while we built our (dream) house overhead.

Confucious say," When Man finishes his house he dies." Nope ya don't ever want to have it end! With any luck, your lovely wife will keep finding new projects to keep you busy. I have had no problem keeping my DH busy around here for the past 40-ish years.
