Fatguy, that was a fantastic suggestion -- I made this with the chipotle addition and it's just perfect. Thanks for the ideas!

I would love this with a base on the bottom so it's more like a drawer -- it would be a nice place to store your ugly U-lock or your bike gloves out of sight. But honestly I can't tell from the photos if it already has one or not. Great idea, and nice bike in the photo, too.

llj71 -- the cables are strong enough for a lot more than a beach cruiser. you just need to make sure that your anchors are strong enough (think heavy duty lag eyes). the only real concern there is what jmorey and graciela mentioned -- it would have to stick out a good way from the wall because of those handlebars.

and i picked up the poster at Enjoyart.com

Try topping with crumbled up goat cheese -- so good.

A word of caution that the photos don't show: the lobster ones are bright white on the insides. If you have them way overhead like I do you'll see plenty of white. It's no issue at night, and I actually like the look of the red/white during the day, but if you weren't expecting that it could throw you off. But for $30 a pop, these can't be beat. I love mine.

Any insights on solid wood for not cheap? I'm not hoping for solid at veneer pricing. Thanks again.

Anyone have any ideas where to get something like this in solid wood rather than veneer? Thanks!

While I usually go bright and early to my local market, sometimes it's more fun and more satisfying to go the hour before it closes for 'happy hour' where everything is $1 ($1 a bag, a bundle, a pound, whatever). Most of the produce has been picked through, but if you're just going for what's abundantly in season you can stock up for nothing. And it's lots of fun.
