Our friend is a tile setter so he came over and did some nice simple design work. If you use tile, the grout will likely get dirty since we're canning, etc. Pick one that won't show as much aging. Our tiles are larger but that was by choice. <br /><br />There is a nice concrete counter tops that you can have colored really nicely. They don't really look like concrete and of course are tough as concrete. <br /><br />Our kitchen isn't the glamorous kind like these new ones. I'd love one like that but being practical, we went this route based on our needs.Kathy Felsted Usherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10471923897561942341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-89425626089304466072012-07-24T21:30:22.872-05:002012-07-24T21:30:22.872-05:00I love all your gadgets, Kathy.

We are in the process of doing the kitchen in the farm house and will need counter tops.<br />I have cast iron pans, too. We've been looking at counter tops, so any advice you can give would be appreciated.LindaGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12203719919661519350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-53377690553524827862012-07-24T15:16:13.238-05:002012-07-24T15:16:13.238-05:00I sure do like your kitchen gadgets, of course the...I sure do like your kitchen gadgets, of course they are a weakness of mine also...Enjoyed the post Kathy.HIBISCUS HOUSEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16837055484501484003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-33904452407243139162012-07-24T13:40:29.064-05:002012-07-24T13:40:29.064-05:00Fun post!

I have a hand crank beater that I use occasionally, a glass juicer, a flat grater that I use a LOT (I don't own a real food processor), whisks glaore and even a hand crank Salsa maker.

The lid says it was made in "Wheeling, VA." There IS a Wheeling, Virginia, but I suspect it was the Wheeling that's now in WV, since that town was always a steel town.Gorges Smythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777621500611603786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-6587190163672809992012-07-23T20:31:55.392-05:002012-07-23T20:31:55.392-05:00I have a John Wayne on my key chain as you never k...I have a John Wayne on my key chain as you never know when you might need to open a can. The end of a John Wayne can be used as a screw driver. I think the Marines call them that because John Wayne was in the original instruction film that showed them how to open a ration can with it. They always work!Sunnybrook Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18135224259672444423noreply@blogger.com
