Hummmm, What Happened in the Kitchen?
I just went to drop off the bathroom paint color for Rocky & did my typical tour of the apartment to see what's new. My to my surprise, the stove was installed, and the kitchen counter tops are now EVEN. I don't why, and frankly I'm not going to ask -- but I'm VERY happy about it.

Back in the Saddle ...
A few weeks ago Rocky asked me if I had picked out a saddle for the bathroom. I thought he was getting fresh, but it turns out his question was legitimate. You see, a saddle is the threshold of a door. It is a separate piece of stone or wood which spans and covers the joint between two different floors.
When we picked out the tile for the bathroom floor and bathroom walls, Phil at Benson Tile never asked if I needed a saddle. Rocky told me a few days later I needed a three foot, two bevel saddle for the bathroom. So I called Phil. I wasn't particularly interested in making yet another trip out to Benson Tile for a little 3 foot block of material. Phil knew what tile I had purchased for the bathroom ... he does this for a living ... surely I can trust him to pick out my saddle. Plus, he knows my taste by now. I got my kitchen backspash and floor tile from Benson Tile too. He knows I like a really simple, clean design. So I told him to pick what he thought would be best. He told me he would send me the saddle that goes perfectly with the floor tile. Great. Done & done.
Meet "Phil" my saddle. All I can say is, at least it's brown ...
