http://downeastinmaine.blogspot.com/2013/06/lets-talk-pantries.html
Tuesday, June 18, 2013. I have had many friends go all ga-ga over this pantry in my home. Do I think it is special? No, it's way too small and since I've had larger ones in previous homes, I'm not sure exactly what I was thinking when I designed this house and it was built! If you like to store many food products for easy one stop shopping for meals, have a large family to feed or feel you need to prepare for the unknown then think BIG, BIGGER AND BIGGEST that you can work into a home!

Come travel with me while I explore all things fiber and a few other creative things along the way! Wednesday, October 24, 2012.

Set back, take a big breath, wait and think. Here are a few thoughts and ideas to consider and questions to ask of yourself. 1 Does this design reflect cleanly and completely what I’m trying to say? 2 Can I take away any part of my drawing that does not fit? 3 Can I add something to the drawing that is important to tell the story?

Downeast in Maine: Chopping Blocks & Knives
http://downeastinmaine.blogspot.com/2013/07/chopping-blocks-knives.html
Wednesday, July 3, 2013. Chopping Blocks and Knives. What is your favorite chopping block style and material? Do you have a favorite brand of knife? I have always loved wooden chopping blocks, even when "experts" have warned about germs on our boards! I clean my board regularly as I work to prevent cross contamination, give it a good scrubbing about once a month and apply a good coat of mineral oil to protect it. No one in my home has EVER become sick from anything I've chopped on my chopping boards!
