You heathen!! I hate z-brick.

What I never understood was that the previous owners, with no window in the
kitchen chose dark carpet (why carpet?) for the floor, brown &cream
wallpaper, gold appliances, and dark reddish-brown z-brick with one tiny
lightbulb in the ceiling. It was a dungeon. And z-brick in the kitchen?
There was a layer of grease and dust on every brick. I changed the light
bulb to a 4 foot long fixture with 4 fluorescent tubes and another
fluorescent over the sink and now the halogen hocky puck lights under the
cabinets.

My Gawd Kitty, you chipped off Z-Brick?? Isn't that just about a
crime?LOL.
I certainly have removed enough of that stuff to last a lifetime while
remodeling various homes, and to think that in the late 60's I actually
installed a bunch of it.

Thanks Libby, it has come a long way from the day we bought the house.
The
people had actually z-bricked the wall above the countertop. I had to
chip
off every darned brick.

Wow Kitty, Your kitchen looks wonderful!

about.
It's lovely.

OK, by now most of you probably think I got really taken by Craig
the
Cabinet guy and that my kitchen is a wreck falling apart at the
seems.
So
I
have posted pictures if you care to see them. It's not as bad as
I've
been
making it sound. (With the kitchen photos I've included a photo of
Anemone
'Bodnant Burgundy')
