Glam Shot!

Thanks everyone for the comments! Glad that people are making it with success and it's being enjoyed. It was much easier than I anticipated, and I like the twist on something so traditional. I think serving it in bundt form is a lovely presentation. More room for pineapple and cherries, too...

I saw this recipe in my Facebook feed a few weeks ago and bookmarked it for later reference. Visiting Greg this weekend in Omaha, I decided to try it out. It turned out much better than I ever thought it would.. Here's the recipe and some pictures. We'll check in later tonight once we give it a...

Is it just me, or does it appear to have been painted as well? Almond wasn't an available paint color in 1955 - which is my guess as to when this is from, based on the oven control knobs. The automatic calrod thermostat does look like it was replaced, based on the knob - but I didn't think the...

My guess is that someone got one of those trendy big fluffy shaggy carpets that they say not to use a beater bar on... and well, they did! Vacuum got clogged and stopped working instantly. That does look to be in nice shape - those are pretty good vacuums with decent power. Can't wait to see...

Congrats! They're so much better when animated: **Two snaps up**

The rest of the kitchen looks cool - probably a gut job. :-(

Arden Hills, MN? Nope, Sacramento: http://sacramento.craigslist.org/zip/5425364620.html

I can't speak to the burners or the door springs - but anyone who needs their range clock/timer repaired, send it to this place: General Time Repairs. They do excellent, fast work and at a very reasonable price, considering there's virtually nowhere else to have this done...

It creeps me out a bit to see that the master batrhoom doesn't appear to have a door. That would need to be fixed somehow. I don't know if this house ever actually sold; I tried looking on redfin and trulia, and some of those sites for sale history, and it just looks like it was delisted.
