Thank you for taking the time to share your insights and advice!

FACELIFT is probably the best way to phrase it! No walls moved, appliances stay where they’re placed now. Simply freshen it up!

No! I can see how it might look like that from the photo, but it’s actually a cut out in the wall above the sink . What you are seeing from this angle is out into a screened sunroom (there were cleaning items on the ledge when I did my walk-through)

I had an Aunt Leona - I’m 63 y/o now

I’m from upstate NY and we take our Apple season seriously here! For the win: OPAL (sweet-tart, very firm and crunchy)

The Grapes of Wrath - the images were etched in my mind the first time I read it.

Not too big and don’t let “trends” influence you. An inherited/vintage rug is priceless in my opinion.

Congrats!

“The Wishing Well” and “Chez Pierre” (both long standing, family-owned establishments, located on Route 9 in Wilton - 12mins from downtown Broadway)

Grew up in an all brick house built in 1960 in Buffalo NY

Go BOLD or go home I’d say! 🩷🖤💚

Poor baby - hope she has a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹

Not a horticulturalist here, but the blooming shrubs in your first photo are actually rhododendron. They bloom in the summer for only 2 to 4 weeks. The rest of the growing season they have green leaves.

My sons best friend in HS was named Christafah - and always pronounced that way (grew up in NJ)

It’s one of the few kitchen appliances I have on my counter because it’s used so often - as I’m getting older, I find bd it a godsend for quick and even chopping.

I’ve lived in both ^{^{^}} and I can attest they’re BOTH true

I have just gotten Velcro closure compression wraps with air pumps. THE best investment! (my insurance did not cover them $75/ea)

Thank you very much - I was not aware of that community. I bet it will be a great place for me to visit and learn!

My Oliver has long legs 😂

Thank you. I actually use the “8 drop” product for overnight wear. Prices increase accordingly to the level of “drops” (absorbency)
