I painted my dreary cabinets white, but it clashed with my old formica counter tops. I went though 1/2 dozen colors before trying black. The top cabinets are still white, but the base is black. I can't say I love it 100%, but I'm satisfied. The walls are white, and the back-splash area is....purple. My kitchen is black, white, and...purple.

A couple of my favorites:

Lawrenceburg, Tennessee is home to the circa 1950, Deco-style Crockett Theater. Tours are free.

"This magnificent Art Deco style gem was designed by the architectural firm of Speight and Hibbs and is listed in the National Registry of Historic Places."

There is a Frank Lloyd Wright house in Florence, Alabama:

"An American architectural treasure, this house was built for newlyweds Stanley and Mildred Rosenbaum of Florence, Alabama, in 1939. The house is the only structure designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in the state of Alabama, and the only such house in the southeast that is open to the public."

Love the little birds! I would also love to have a retro pink tile bath.

I'm obsessive-compulsive about my pets,
so I wouldn't leave them with just any one.

I take my dog with me, and my cousin, who
lives next door, comes over to feed my cats.

For safety, I turn the electric off at the
switch. I put down enough litter boxes to
last the week, or how ever many days I'll
be gone, and plenty of water/dry food, so
all my cousin has to do is feed them their
canned.

I wouldn't leave my dog behind, but she is
smallish & fits in a bag, and she loves to travel.
