kingston: Everything INCLUDING the Kitchen Sink - great Kingston Kitchens - 02/10/16 04:58 AM
We're in the process of revamping our kitchen: new countertops, new tile flooring, resurfaced cabinets and a few new appliances. 
One of the things I'm insisting upon is an Apron Sink (Farmhouse Sink or Belfast Sinks as they're AKA)
I originally wanted copper but have decided to go with white instead, which will suit this particular kitchen better.  (Also thinking of resale purposes)
In my online search for this elusive large, single bowl sink that will fit our dimensions, I came across this one:
 
Have you ever seen a Bamboo Sink before?
Is it something that would suit you and your kitchen?

My friend Greg Nino, in Texas, wrote this fantastic post that answers the Top 6 questions we all seem to get asked, no matter where we work and live!
My favourite of course is #2 which deals mainly with Realtor safety!  Last weekend I had 3 callers in less than 1 hour DEMAND that they immediately be let into a home they were parked in front of.  No warning, no appointment, no respect nor courtesty for the Sellers let alone me, the Realtor!! 
Coming in as my 2nd favourite is # 5.  If other Realtors are showing your home it means I've done … (9 comments)

kingston: Susan's Tomatoes Got WASTED, BOMBED, STEWED! - 09/07/15 06:00 AM
UPDATE from Emo's Eating Emporium . . .
 
Susan's Stewed Tomatoes
 
My little "container garden" is providing us with loads of tomatoes and yesterday, I picked another 50 small yellow ones.   I decided that they needed to get STEWED!

They were all cut in half and then they marinated all afternoon at room temperature, in 1/2 cup of Vodka with some celery salt and black pepper.
When it was time to eat, I poured a few ounces of Clamato in the bottom of the serving dishes and added a lemon wedge and a basil leaf.
Then the Stewed Tomatoes were placed on top.  (the only … (9 comments)

kingston: Capitals make a HUGE difference! - 09/06/15 02:02 AM
I have a problem with the use (or misuse) of capitals  -  letters that is, capital letters.
(Not Kingston Ontario which used to be the Capital of Upper Canada where I list and sell a lot of real estate!)
They're either being used to excess as in
STOP TYPING IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE IT MEANS YOU'RE YELLING AT ME!
or
They're not being used enough as with this tv commercial that drives me crazy every time I see it. 
(note: I know nothing about this company other than their commercial and I am not endorsing them nor malining them.  They are just an example!)
