The project that never ended. That’s what we can call this basement finish. It is a labor of love. Pushing forward is the only option and I can’t wait to get it done!!
I installed this brick paneling last night. You don’t like it?? Don’t worry, when I get done working some magic on it I think you will!! Keep up with me in stories to watch the process. Would you ever do a brick wall in your home?

Have you ever hung a door? Or 10?? It isn’t as hard as you think! Here are a few tips:
1. Get a hanging system to help make things easier.
2. Be sure to install them on a finished floor or a piece of the flooring you’re going to install so that they sit high enough for the floor to go under.
3. Use a level to be sure they shut correctly.

In the words of Taylor Swift “are you ready for it?”

I have decided to be the general contractor on the basement finish. It hasn’t been easy and there is a reason people pay a GC a lot of money to manage their project. But, this is not my first finish and I was sure I could withstand the headache of hiring people to help.

I could have done some of the major work like framing and drywall, but we really wanted this done sooner than I would be able to make it happen #life.

So I hired the trades to do the major work - framing, HVAC, electrical, plumbing and drywall.

The drywall is starting so my daughter helped me lay the paper down to prep for the texture. What a MESS!!

Next week it will become all me (no more trades) and I start the fun stuff like paint, doors, trim, etc. all the things that make a space pretty.

Follow along in stories for a daily check in on the progress and to keep me going!

There is nothing better than a plate full of yummy

There is nothing better than a plate full of yummy French Toast on a snowy Sunday Morning in Colorado! The key to making it super delicious just might be the fresh grated Nutmeg!

Easy Recipe:
~ 1 cup milk
~ 2 eggs
~ 2 tsp vanilla or vanilla extract
~ 1 tsp cinnamon
~ fresh grated Nutmeg (or ground Nutmeg)

Dip bread into batter quickly on both sides, don’t soak in batter, cook in medium skillet and flip once. Cook until cooked through (so inside isn’t soggy)

Serve with butter, warmed syrup and a sprinkle of powdered sugar

Happy Sunday, friends!
