I remember Betty on NBC news too in NYC Always liked her segments. I hadn't realize she also worked in the Johnson Administration - very cool lady for sure! Speaking of WNBC news - had a major crush on Chuck Scarborugh. Even before I figured out the whole gay thing.

I am with you Louis!!! Blech to reheated coffee.... :-)

congrats on your new home!!! I think it is great you want to create a nice pleasant place with the comforts important to you (and CJ of course!). It is nice to come home after a long day at work and be in a space you love. I am a firm believer in the saying "if you don't take care of...

Best Pot Roast I ever made was from Ina Garten She calls it "Company Pot Roast" and it is done with carrots, celery, leeks, onion and a bit of garlic. Meat is lightly dusted with flour and seared on all sides, vegetables are chopped and cooked down a bit. All goes in a dutch oven with the lid...

"I'm just to pretty too crawl under greasy old cars If that is your photo as your avitar, then I would agree 100%. Still, there is nothing like a handsome man a little grubby after a good project. :-)

video is marked "private" You will need to make it public some how.    

I thought the "laser line" design on the control pan was later than that.  We had a similar washer - more MOL than that one we purchased in 89 or 90 and it had the same design control panel.   The TOL set my brother bought in 86 had the older design (orange lettering and the words "General...

thanks for posting this.... Very cool indeed.    

these look very cool Wonder if they will try to bring to North America.... 

Now it makes sense Martin! What an great thing to do, caring for those kids.  You must have a heart as big as a house!   Happy washing!    

Why so many machines, Martin? I think its a cool set up but there is no way our household would generate enough laundry to keep them busy.  And, I separate everything instead of putting it all in 2 or 3 loads.   Are they all 7500s with the heater or do you have some of the older models too...

the Arçelik machine look interesting... Any one have any first hand knowledge of these?  They look like they are 220 Volt so I wonder if they are on a par with the Miele machines.   Now that Miele stopped making 220 volt machines (except for the Little Giant "Spa" machine), I would like to...

is it me or does the script on the clock/timer controls ... Look kinda "frigidaire-y".  especially the words stop and start.  For some reason, I remember seeing a very similar font on Fridgaire's.   I think the 50's when corporations starting developing a "house style" with IBM being the...

do you use a crystal/china cycle to wash the Ridel In the KitchenAid?   I am a huge fan of Ridel and wash our vinum series glasses on a daily basis in the Miele...  I am sure over time there will be a bit of clouding/scratching but that beats the risk of breaking them while washing by hand...

Shouldn't this be in the "Dirty Laundry" forum?? LOL.  Reminds me of a funny story about our first summer in this house.  My partner (Scott) , who is a remodeling carpenter, was doing the kitchen of the lady next door (Kitty).  When the appliances were delivered and tucked into the garage...

well there is actually a "Dump It" Cake .... That has no cake mix.  I first heard about it on NPR during a piece with Amanda Hessar talking about her book "Cooking for Mr. Latte".  The recipes I remember were for a "dump it" cake that her working Mom would make for birthdays, etc.  Was made...

I want the recepie for the Double chocolate espresso cake! Is it Top Secret or can you share?   Glad your oven is cooking again.  My favorite aunt (Aunt Sylvia) had  a Hotpoint double oven and cooktop from the 1950's (when the house was built) until my cousin got married in 1994 and she...

another cool link to photos This is another site that refers to it as "Cathedral of Refrigeration"     http://www.nailhed.com/2014/10/the-tower-of-cathedral-of-refrigeration.html

This sounds great - I love fried Chicken Kevin,   Thanks for doing these wonderful videos!  We drove through Providence last weekend coming back from the cape.  Next time we will stop and see this fun museum.  I didn't even know it existed.  Again. thanks!   Love the idea of doing it...
