room to grow...

[Soledad]

Even though it's morning, the mention of tandoors has me salivating at my desk.

I had some excellent tandoori lamb this weekend. It's never the same in a regular oven, is it??

Oh, and I second the wine cellar.

Can a garden be classified as a room? Our back yard has not a single tree, bush, shrub or any other sign of life - gimme a makeover!

[Soledad]

Indoor-outdoor flow!!! It's the best!

let me finish with the windows!

i'll get right on it!

[RICHARD]

my just finished garage!!!!!

first a compound mitre box, band saw, table saw, router table,
planer, drill press.........wall to wall work bench.
heated concrete floor, skylight windows, a keg-erator. a 50 inch plasma t.v. with satellite dish, a set of doors that swing out to the patio, in the front, where i can keep the furniture i build, and drink a beer or glass or lemonade right as the sun goes down.


(THAT one is for all the guy's who have 'stuff, electronics, junk
or collectibles' your significant others have described in this thread......)

[slleipnir]

I like Trading Spaces and While You Were Out.

lol, me too

I guess I'd need a house 1st to do it but yeah, with this house I'd have to say my room :]

.....a wood fire oven in my enormous, state-of-the-art kitchen. That way I could have tandoori chicken/lamb/shrimp and wood fired pizza all the time!! oh my gosh, wood fired pizza at home?!? do you think the dogs would let me eat in peace? or would they get 'pieces'? .
i bought my house last year, and what i would do is refinish the basement and install a small bathroom for when company visits.
the second day i was here, i ripped off the burnt-orange wallpaper from the 1960s style rumpus room. i'd like to update that area. oh yeah, i'd like ceiling fans in the bedrooms and builtin bookshelves for all my books and books to be bought.....

i dislike plumbing and electricity scares the poop outta me!
so i'm not that useful......

real men plumb and electrify!

[Barbara]

Electric things are the only ones I can deal with (and still live). But if I started to build furniture I'd be without hands, feet etc.
My grandpa was known to be a man who could cook and plumb and build whatever he wanted-but since then there was no man nor woman in this family with all these skills.
And one of his ancestors could knit as well -it was something the shepherds did

[mugsy]

So Richard, are you saying you don't have an electric personality??

[Kfamr]

My daddy does everything. There's not one thing he can't do, well if his back allows him. One thing he has trouble with is spelling

Your dad sounds like my dad!! Except with my dad, it isn't his back that gives him grief, it's his knee. Does your dad always have to have a project to work on too?
