The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

Hi Debby, you too! We had a 3 hour early out yesterday. I can’t imagine how awful the day would have been, had it been a full day. We had training at the high school after the kids went home.

I am going to some big craft fair with a friend today. I’m regretting saying yes. She said it is very peopley.

Go and have fun, maybe you'll see some new crafty thing you want to try doing yourself or a new home decoration.

I’m going…dragging my feet a little.I’ll probably buy but I don’t do crafts.

I miss going to craft fairs, haven't seen any around for probably 20 years or so, at least in the places I've lived. My parents used to do a couple of shows a year out in Denver...dad did woodworking and mom sold her homemade pies. They had a lot of fun selling stuff at them. (And I got some of dad's leftover woodworking stuff!)

Good memories for you. I went to one a couple years ago with a friend. It was close to home and about 30 vendors. This one is an hour from home and very large.

Hope you find some good stuff!

Good morning to you all!

We had about 35-40 trick or treaters last night, saw some real cute kids (and parents) dressed up. One boy about 10 yrs old told me "hold the candy, can I have a water please?"...guess his costume was way too hot for him. A little girl around 5 shared her witchy laugh with us, she was so cute! It was fun seeing the kids, and we don't have much candy left to tempt us so a successful Halloween Eve.

Good morning Debby! That sounds like fun! We rarely ever get any trick or treaters. Mostly Amish neighbors here in the country! Other that seeing a couple of made up grandkids!

I'm pretty sure that's quartz. Granite is stone.
It's amazing how much you can save.

Labor adds up in a big hurry!

Our countertop is a hard marble. It can etch, so not as hard as granite. They are both stone. Ours is called Fantasy Brown, with a leathered finish. Quartz is a very good product, very durable. Granite is also very durable. Get what you like the looks of. Take care of it and it will last you a lifetime. We did our remodel about 3 years ago. The counter is still just as gorgeous.
We do all of our own work, tile everything. Hubs built a 6 new cabinets and we refinished the original ones we kept. Saved a lot of money, so that enabled us to get this counter.

Good morning, Rene. I was scared of marble! I was afraid it was too high maintenance for me. I was lucky enough to have a brother who sales and installs countertops. I got such a good deal that we were able to put cream bordeux granite on all the countertops in the kitchen and the bathrooms.
