Planning a kitchen remodel - farmhouse style - I live in an actual 1859 farmhouse. The kitchen isn’t original to that date, but it might as well be. Starting from scratch except for newer fridge & dishwasher.

Do’s & Dont’s, anyone?

TIA

Watch Deadwood.

Ftw

Deadwood, Breaking Bad, Sopranos and Mad Men are all shows I watched the first season of and then just lost interest in.
yet somehow loved Carnivalle, American Gods and Penny Dreadful.

If you're going to binge watch something - I would suggest Community, Archer or The Expanse.

I like a well written sitcom. There seem to be a lot of bad ones.

Superstore is excellent, though.

Right now I’m reading the oral biography of Jane’s Addiction. Good stuff.

Been watching the tornado coverage from Oklahoma and they are absolutely breathtaking yet terrifying.

Plan on it taking longer than planned.

We did ours a couple of years ago. Sucked during the process but we agreed worth it in the end.

This was our end result.

Very nice!
I *think* I'm prepared for the suckage. We shall see.
Also we've worked with the contractor before on a few (big) projects, so I feel comfortable with their scheduling abilities. But I know to expect snags!

thanks!

Snags aside, one of the most valuable features for me would be to have the exhausts from the range hood and from microwave to go outside. "Filtering" options do not do jack squat.

Has anyone seen those videos of former NHLer Billy Tibbetts going around now? I won't link to them here bc they're nsfw due to language and drug use, but holy shit is that guy insane!! If you haven't seen them, get on it asap. Hilarious.

Met him a couple times at local drinking establishments. He is certified insane, and not in a good way, in a very scary way.

It come through loud and clear in the videos he's posted. Guy is unhinged. Still, the videos are train wrecks you can't help but watch. Literally mesmerizing how dysfunctional his thought process is.

Got sent "home" from work yesterday because of the threat of severe weather. So I worked from my hotel room yesterday afternoon and evening. Had one hell of a downpour and wind during the night, but nothing more than that. I did think about tornadoes though.
