    Your kitchen countertops look a lot like mine, and I love them. I went from a kitchen with solid white countertops (which I had to bleach about every other day)to that one, and they're great. Love your cabinets, too, and I'm perpetually jealous of your knotty pine doors.

    Quote: My DH and I are having our dream house built on 250 wooded acres in middle TN, the land I grew up on. We are having a contractor build it, but it's still exciting for us. Our dream got downsized due to the economy, but it's still fun. Our house plan is VERY similar to Texasgal's, but...
