Do you have a "Kids Table" at family celebrations?
Comments (33)Growing up we always had holiday dinners together, there was five kids. If we ever had company, we all sat at the dinning room table. When I was 14 we move from a small town is Pennsylvania to New Jersey. My older sister 16, young brother 12 and I were heart broken to have to move. From where we had lived our whole lives to new schools and no friends was very hard for us. From knowing almost everyone. From an area where the high school had state champions in football, the school band was large and once was, the half time show for one of the bowl games, (my sister was in the band) to a new high school not knowing anyone, speaking with an accent, not dressing the same, no football stadium, the band didn't even have uniforms, was a nightmare. Going from what we thought would be the best time of our lives to this new school was the worst thing that could happen to a teenager. Our first Thanksgiving, my cousin and his wife invited our family to dinner. When we got to my cousins house, we were the "only children" at the dinner, were banned to the kitchen. My oldest brother was in the service and my other brother was at collage. Our first holiday that the whole family was not together. My father could not believe this. He even made a remark that there was plenty of room at the table. At our house we would sit together, a joyous occasion, we could always squeeze one more in, didn't matter how many. That evening, after dinner and driving home my father, who never said much, put his foot down and said from now on we would have holiday meals at home. Even after we were out on our own, we came together for holiday meals and everyone sat at the dinner table....See MoreHow do you storm proof your home?
Comments (10)We live in the extreme North East and stock up on METAL snow shovels; rock salt; trying to find the perfect cat litter to spread as a non-skid surface--wood ash is the BEST but not really for sale at the local Gas N Go!!!!----altho I just read that ALFALFA MEAL is a great thing to try!!!--- Tarps for things like outdoor furniture too big to go inside a shed; tarp for the trailer we use to haul our motorcycle; moving the firepit and other lawn stuff out of range of the snow plows--you might be surprised at how FAR the plow guy might have to move tons and tons of snow and ice and usually part of the driveway also. We also make sure we have gas for the generator and spare propane for the space heater for the garage or basement if needed; a light under the kero tank to keep it liquid in prolonged periods of deep freeze---sounds weird to have to HEAT the fuel for the HEATER don't it!!!!---and a converter of the right kind to power the Monitor heater IF the power goes out! We can actually do this using the car power outlets if needed. Hair dryers for thawing pipes---NEVER use open flame blow torches!!!!---heat tape for the pipes; heat source for the chickens and a heated water bowl for the chickens too! Snow rakes for the roof; people from the South seem to find this HYSTERICAL but we know we will NEED them to get the snow OFF the roof before the roof falls in under what can be FEET of heavy wet snow which will always be followed by rain which makes the snow even heavier---the science behind this is--wet snow falls when the temps are pretty warm; then you get more warm and snow turns to rain. Poof goes the roof! On super cold days we get light fluffy snow--the Holy Grail of skiers---that squeaks when you walk on it. Easy to brush away with a broom. Not good for snowballs or forts. Make sure your roof slates (or shingles) are tight as water can get up under there and make ICE DAMS and cause large rifts under them. This lets water into the house or porch overhang--not a good thing. Roof slides when building or re-roofing come in handy for these. Heat cables were all the rage for a while but peoples houses kept burning down...See MoreHow do you feel about "Word Art?"
Comments (152)Most of them are "life lessons for the forgetful," IMO. Might be as helpful to label your toilet paper and toothbrush so you remember to use them (not necessarily simultaneously though.) Great to see all you "old Houzzers" back on here! Maybe Emily should put up a humor category so the fun and games can continue!...See MoreWhat to do with kitchen nook?
Comments (13)there must be a deck/back yard /patio/on that outside area. I'd get a 6 ft narrow trestle table ..push it quite close to the windows....get some electrical outlets in the wall space if not already, and small scale chairs .this is a secondary area for casual seating/computer/coffee /snacks/etc. that's how I'd handle it. the 13 feet avail on fridge wall, when one or two deep pantry cabinets are installed will be storage . I would not let the work zone or storage zones migrate this way when you have activity in your back yard....a patio door for access...and windows which gives a bonus to using it for seating. But I would really want the seating to be used....See MoreFour_Seasons
