st louis: Living the Loco in St Louis, MO - 08/07/08 07:17 PM
After a few months away from the active rain community, I have returned. Due to my daughter receiving her 2nd double lung transplant things have been crazy.

st louis: Worst Kitchen Design Goof-Ups - 03/22/07 07:01 PM
Here are a few of the best kitchen design bloopers and how to avoid them.
Oversizing the island. Avoid an island with a depth over 48 inches as it can be hard to clean. There should be at least 42 inches between the island and surrounding cabinets to accommodate more than one person working in the kitchen.
Not maximizing storage. Make the most of space by outfitting blind corners with swing-out caddies or lazy susans., deep pantries with pull out shelves, and drawers with full extension guides.
Blowing off ventilation. A vented over the-range microwave or range exhausts heat and odors. This will improve air … (0 comments)
