It&#...I'm lovin' the tile you have chosen! It's hard living thru the reno's but I'm sure it will be so nice when it's all done. Cleaning the tops of those stoves is not too hard if you have the right stuff. I use a product called Cerama Bryte stovetop cleaner and it cleans it up nice. I'm sure any brand of that would work. And the couple times I really burnt something on there my husband just used a putty knife to scrape the burnt stuff and then again with the Cerama Bryte. I had to chuckle with what the pink icing did but what a fun way to wrap up a unit.Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757963698816530787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-85338066387683149692017-05-20T11:06:12.740-04:002017-05-20T11:06:12.740-04:00The Professor had finals this week.

It makes no sense for CA schools to have 'snow days' added in to the schedule :)<br />The remodel will be worth it when it is finished. The tile floors look great!<br />I remember when my kids had biology dissections--I don't think it was as much fun as your school makes it. Fortunately none of my kids are 'squeamish' so biology was a fun class for them. They would have loved your piggie party!<br />Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912030095491960175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-65847910180620561292017-05-20T08:36:49.380-04:002017-05-20T08:36:49.380-04:00Faith - we start earlier and don't have as man...Faith - we start earlier and don't have as many holidays as most places. Our public schools here will go two more weeks. So it all comes out the same in the wash. :-)Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14121222198887672974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-74197452322590277432017-05-19T19:55:56.172-04:002017-05-19T19:55:56.172-04:00WOW! you all only have one more week of school?? w...WOW! you all only have one more week of school?? we have SIX here in NYS.<br />and summer begins on June 21 which is 3 days before my youngest graduates from high school!! NYS has a long school year. And my contract this year requires me to work summer school (6 weeks of special ed preschool) so this will be a big adjustment for me as i haven't taught summer school since 1994 when my oldest was 1!!<br /><br />That's an interesting way to wrap up a bio class on pigs!!<br /><br />I LOVE tile in the bathroom and only our upstairs bathroom has it....our downstairs one (half bath) still has old vinyl flooring from when we first built the house...I so wanna upgrade but now we face helping the youngest with college!<br /><br />I hope you have a lovely weekend and enjoy the end of your school year!<br /><br />Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608258814596465122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-24805362161114513692017-05-19T17:27:57.716-04:002017-05-19T17:27:57.716-04:00Yay for the last week of the school year!

Hope it all goes well for you. <br /><br />I was hoping for a glass-topped range next time because I get so tired of having to lift burners up to clean up crumbs and spills underneath them. But now you have me questioning that. :-) Ours is not too old, so it will be a long while before we get a new one. I'll have to research it before then.<br /><br />The floor looks good! It's hard to have just one working toilet even with just two people in the house. Hope it all gets put back together soon!<br /><br />Funny about the the pig party!Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
