Popular Post kmealy Posted August 12, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) About a dozen years ago, my daughter & husband were renting a 19th century house with a 19th century kitchen. She asked me to make a spice cabinet for her. Two houses later, they've now re-done their kitchen and don't need it any more. But I do, so it came back. Different sized spice containers than she had, but still works.

kmealy Posted August 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 I guess it's good Karma because I had to leave my last one when we sold the house because I was afraid the paint behind was damaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John I think I'd fail his test, though, they are not all the same brand and in the same size jars. Grandpadave52 and HARO50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Morris Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 I completely love that cabinet Keith. If you ever have to move and or find another home for it, I got space for it in my home. The color, the design, it looks like a wonderfully crafted rich piece of history to me, absolutely beautiful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmealy Posted August 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 I do the cooking in my house. As a college friend who was completing his PhD in chemistry, "Cooking is just applied chemistry." Cal and HARO50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The flask had a tube that ended under water and would send out bubbles. The teacher said, oh watch, if you hold a match at the bubbles, you get a little pop...pop.. pop. He did this and BANG, the flame backed up the tube to the flask, blew the top off and smashed out the overhead fluorescent lights. End of lab today, students.

Sadly passed away in 2011. He was from Greece and the proverbial, "landed in NYC with $38 in his pocket." Put himself through college and became a teacher, later a principal. He had some strange expressions due to his learning English. He always talked about angles in degrees, first minutes and second minutes. And his way of expressing infinity or infinite series, "I be an old man, writing, writing, writing..." as he walked across the blackboard. p_toad and HARO50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
