The Tavern

Tavern on the Town
519 N. Milwaukee Avenue, Libertyville, IL 60048, (847) 367-5755

We decided to go out to dinner last night because I was all gussied up with my new hair cut and makeup-person applied makeup (see previous entry about the Mario Tricoci Salon). I suppose you could look at that one of two ways: either we're the kind of people who will celebrate anything or I'm the kind of girl who so seldom gets gussied up that it's an event. I'd like to go with the former, but it is probably a bit of both.

Anyway, I made a reservation at the Tavern because they were the closest restaurant that looked cool on Open Table:

From silk Thai lanterns and colorful beaded curtains that hang from the ceiling to an original Brunswick bar painted in gold and turquoise, this is clearly not your father's steakhouse. The Tavern's menu features USDA prime beef, Australian Wagyu, organically raised free range chicken, diver-caught Maine sea scallops, assorted fresh fish, New Zealand Rock Lobster Tails, and in season: oysters from both coasts, the Alaskan king salmon run, live Maryland soft shell crabs, morels, chanterelles, and porcini from hunters in Oregon and Washington, fresh produce from local lake county farms, and the Tavern's own home-grown heirloom tomatoes (last year 35 different varietals were brought home for service). An award winning wine list featuring over 700 selections. A great wine by the glass assortment, an unusually well stocked bar, and draught beer (including several outstanding Belgian selections)round out the Tavern's beverage program.

It almost sounds kind of cheesy, but it is actually quite a neat and eclectic look with all the lanterns and the random swathes of wallpaper. Little bit of an old school smoking room at a pub look, little bit of an Eastern bordello.

We had the oysters (covering both coasts) for an appetizer and they were good, albeit almost too big. And since we were being bad, I had an 8 ounce filet with foie gras and truffle butter. The foie gras was good, but man, give me all the truffle butter you can. Tony had the New York Strip steak. He said it was good, but not earth shattering. I think he should have tried the Wagyu beef from Australia. What the heck, it being our "beef" night. We're trying to eat red meat only once a week.

Dessert was really good -- malted milk ball gelato. And I guess I should mention their wine selection (very extensive; we got a Chateau St. Georges that was definitely a Tony kind of wine). They even had a decent after-dinner selection.

Oh, and Tony noted an interesting exchange between the bartender (a rather large-ish fellow) and a patron who said she was going to Scotland:

Bartender: This is the best book on scotch there is. We just added it to our library. Keep it as long as you like; a few days, a year, whatever.

Kind of cool. I imagine she's a regular.

So, to sum up (as Inigo might say): good place. We'll have to try it out again sometime. Nice atmosphere and a fun location right in the middle of the quaint section of Libertyville.

Mario Tricoci

Mario Tricoci Hair Salons & Day Spa
1441 West Peterson, Libertyville, IL 60048, 1-800-TRICOCI

(btw, I hate it when places don't put the number along with their little "here's a handy way to remember our number" thing...because I have to then decode it when I dial and it is annoying. But I digress.)

I went today to get a hair cut at the Mario Tricoci Salon. It's a fancy-schmancy place near the Sunset Foods and is a chain all around the area. I think it is just IL, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I thought I'd try it out because a) my hair was all shaggy from growing it out and not getting a hair cut in 2 months and b) my hair just generally needs help since I'm so not a girly-girl and c) I can't remember what the third reason was. But anyway.

I still miss Sharlene down in Florida, but I can't travel that far to get a hair cut, no matter how awesome she is. So I gave Denise a try. She's been at MT for 10 years and is (I think) one of the senior stylists. Since this was my first visit, they also throw in a free makeup application/consultation.

I think Denise did a good job, actually. She was friendly without being gushy and could carry on a conversation (unlike any of the hair dressers I tried in KY...the one at Z Salon just didn't want to talk and then Jay at Jay's Campus Cuts would never shut up). And the hair cut seems to have come out well. Of course, the real test is once I wash it and see what it does without a hair dresser to help it along.

Renee was the makeup application person (what do you call those? makeup artists? I dunno). They make and/or blend their own makeup at the salon. Mineral stuff. Fancy things. Make your own lipstick color kind of stuff. Actually, it came out pretty good, though not all of it colors I normally use. I'm thinking maybe I should go for one of their regular consultations...after all, I think I've been putting on my makeup probably the same way since I was about 15. Could be time for a change.

Shoot, I think it was Lisa who first showed me how to put on makeup. Mom didn't start wearing makeup again until after dad died.

Ooop, Tony's home...going to dinner!

Fireplaces Plus

Fireplaces Plus
700 North Milwaukee Avenue, Vernon Hills, IL 60061, (847) 549-6700

So, Grace went and stuck her tail in the fire the other night. Not completely engulfed in flame or anything -- just the tip of it in the lava rock stuff -- but enough to give her tail a charry bit and for us to go out looking for a fire screen to put in front of the family room fireplace.

We found one at Fireplaces Plus...it'd be hard not to, actually. They had quite a selection of them and will even do custom ones. We wound up getting sort of a Craftsman looking one with doors so it'd be easy enough to light the logs. I'll try and get a picture of it later when I have the camera handy.

If you go, talk to Adam.

Pat's Pizza

Pat's Pizza
Route 83 Grayslake, 847 223-PATS

Ok, I'm way behind. But I'm working on it. We went to Pat's back on the 16th. I'd asked the PCHO list for some pizza place recommendations and Pat's was one of them that was close by. I'd actually asked for delivery options (which Pat's does), but Tony wanted to go out instead.

It's a down-home looking place where they serve you up a basket of peanuts as soon as you sit down ("the last true neighborhood family experience") and they feature four homemade crust styles: thin, New Yorker, Deep Pan (i.e. Chicago), and Double Decker.

We tried their specialty taco pizza in the deep pan style. I liked it, but Tony was just so-so...I think his brain couldn't get over the whole taco-pizza combo. So next time we try them we'll have to have a more traditional style pizza -- maybe their "gut buster" special. They also have sandwiches, "broaster" chicken (what's up with that, anyway? We've seen that everywhere up here) and a pasta dish or two. But pizza definitely seems to be their specialty. Definitely worth another try...though, of course, we've also got all those other recommended pizza places to give a shot.

Charcoal Delights

Charcoal Delights
500 Center Street, Grayslake, IL 60030
(847) 543-9838

From what their menu says, Charcoal Delights has been around since 1963. That's quite a long time and quite a long menu it has. There's a little bit of everything there -- gyros, burgers, hot dogs, breakfast stuff, chicken dinners, every kind of sandwich...kind of a one-stop place for everything lunch.

Looks to be owned by a Greek family, so next time we go I think I'll try a gyro. This past weekend I tried the Scotty Dog (hot dog with the works, Chicago style) and Tony tried the Charcoal Chicken Special sandwich. Both were pretty good.

Atmosphere-wise, it looks like it is located in a converted Wendy's or some other fast food joint-type building. The Grayslake location of Charcoal Delights is fairly new (well, at least new enough to proclaim "new location" on the side of the cups). I'm curious as to what the others look like.

In general...

I've still got some more blog catching up to do (too many new places + too much stuff to do = blog way behind), but I thought I'd give a general update on how things are going.

We're still liking the neighborhood and everyone in it. It's an interesting group of people, as evidenced by the email distribution list affectionately (I suppose) called PsyCHO. If there's one thing you can say about the people of Prairie Crossing it is that they are all passionate people. Well, at least the vocal ones are.

A couple kids came over yesterday to get books to read. They really loved the crawlspace in the basement. They want to turn it into a neighborhood sleepover / hang out spot with big fluffy pillows and strands of Christmas lights. Too cute. They also checked out some of my hat collection.

Let's see...on furniture...we received our new dresser (no problems) and our table and chairs (no mounting hardware included...big problem...). The sofa and double chair for the family room has been received by the shipping company (I was told today) and we should be getting sometime in the next 7 to 10 days.

We also found and ordered two chairs from Toms Price. We found perfect chairs -- tub chairs in red leather that swivel and rock. They'll be perfect in the living room. With the other couch we ordered which should be here sometime in May. We hope. Meanwhile, we have a very echo-y house (which the kids also discovered yesterday).

Had another flooring guy out today. Tomorrow I'm calling to set up getting the new wood floor in the guest room. Then the whole house will be wood (no carpet. yay!).

And also tomorrow (hopefully) I'll get a 220 plug in the laundry room so I can use my nice washer & dryer set again. We've been using the ones that came with the house. I miss my front-loading washer & dryer. *sigh* I was spoiled. Of course, we'll have to sell the house ones and then figure out a way to get our set out of the basement and into the laundry room without killing anything.

Anything else? I dunno....Tony seems to be settling in at work. He's really happy to have minions. I told him I want to dig up my old Dungeon Keeper game for the sound effects. You know, the slapping the imps around and what not.

The cats are also settling in. They've got their cat hole now and can get to the basement whenever they want.

Lots of funny stories around poor little Gracie...

There's a little neighborhood girl named Grace and whenever I leave the window open and the other kids are calling her name, our Grace can't quite figure out what's going on. Why do they keep calling me? she seems to be thinking as her head bounces back and forth like she's at a tennis match, watching them as they run by. Then the other day we ate lunch outside and she came and sat with us. Later, our neighbor Jill asked if we had a dog. It seems her mother (who must also live in the neighborhood) had seen us out and had a conversation along the lines of "Oh, I saw your new neighbors out with their dog". Um, no, I said, that would just be our really fat cat...

Whitney St. Restaurant

Whitney St. Restaurant "Grayslakes Homegrown Restaurant"
30 N. Whitney Street, Grayslake, IL 60030
847-223-0670

Okay, I don't mean this at all in a bad way, but The Whitney is more-or-less a dive. Dives have their place. In fact, we often tend to frequent places that are either complete dives or really high-falutin'. We don't go to too many things in the middle (well, okay, any place with really good pancakes, but that's my personal weakness).

The Whitney had friendly people and the food was decent. Not the kind of stuff you write home about, but not bad either. And I like a place where they ask you "What are you having for dessert?" rather than "Would you like any dessert?" (we didn't, actually, 'cause we were too full, but still, it's a good question.)

Tony had salmon patties and I had a tuna melt. It was actually a pretty good tuna melt -- bread toasted just so and the tuna warm all the way through. I hate it when the tuna is cold in the middle. That's the mark of a bad tuna melt, if you ask me. I bet all their melts are pretty good.

Kamehachi

Kamehachi Japanese Restaurant and Sushi Bar
1320 Shermer Road Northbrook, IL 60062 (847) 562-0064

So, last week when I went to pick up the fan (yay, I found the fan store all by my little lonesome without getting lost once) and then Tony (both being on Lake Cook Road, which made it easy) we then went out to dinner at Kamehachi.

I had to take a set of their matches with me so I could remember how to spell the darn name. They didn't have any menus or cards you could take. What's up with that?

Anyway, they actually have a few different locations, some being in the city. I can't speak for any of those, but the one in Northbrook is excellent.

We sat at the sushi bar (and for anyone who goes to a good sushi restaurant and sits at a table -- you don't know what you're missing). Carlo was our sushi dude. He'd been a sushi chef for 7 years and seemed to be the go-to guy for any special orders that came in, even though he seemed to be younger than some of the other chefs (though he did know what that old TV show Good Times was -- or whatever it was -- I never watched it and I don't even remember how it came up in conversation).

We didn't order anything off of the menu. He just made us stuff. Well, he did kind of ask first on some things, but some stuff he just made. My only regret is that we went early and weren't super hungry yet. Next time I need to go late and be starving because it was all awesome. Some of what he made us wasn't on the menu at all.

Tony's favorite was probably this martini glass filled with various chunks of sashimi (tuna, yellowtail, who knows what all) in different sauces mixed in with seaweed and other un-identifiable things. I'm not sure what my favorite was. It was all good. The deluxe dragon roll (or something to that effect) was especially good.

Even our waiter, Peter, was really nice. He gave me some good recommedations of other Asian restaurants to try. And some free green tea ice cream. :-) It always pays to talk to people and treat them how you'd like to be treated. Or maybe I'm just chatty.

We'll definitely be back. Tony had actually been once or twice before when he'd been up here for work. Maybe we'll try out one of their event nights. They do sake tastings and wine tastings every now and again.

The places Peter recommended are Gumrai Thai at Arlington Heights Road & N.W. Hywy. (found an online review of it at Harvard Avenue) and Three Happiness (for dim sum) in the city (209 W Cermak Rd) and if we're looking for good duck, he said we should check out the New Chinatown area around Broadway and Argyle in the city. Also good Vietnamese there. Now I just need to figure out the whole train / el situation so I can get me some dim sum. I haven't had good dim sum in years.

Dorfler's Meat Market

Dorfler's Meat Market
1182 McHenry Road / Arlington Heights Road
Buffalo Grove, IL (847) 459-3060

Tony called me earlier today and wanted me to pick up some fish for dinner from a seafood market (if I could find one). I posted to the Prairie Crossing email list for suggestions, but people mostly just recommended Sunset (which we've tried and like okay, but we were hoping for a small shop with maybe a little more variation in what they get in). So I found a place online called Dorfler's and thought I'd try it. It's about 11 miles from here, so not too far.

It's actually a pretty good market for meats, seafood, and deli products. Big, clean, well-lit and no mysterious fishy (or otherwise) odors. I did learn that they get in new seafood daily and it all did look fresh, though only one (rainbow trout) had the head still on. So I talked to a guy that works there and he said if you call ahead you can get pretty much anything with the head on/whole. Best to call a whole day ahead though.

They also deliver. Not normally as far as Grayslake, but when I asked he checked with a guy in the back who lives out this way and he said he'd be happy to deliver stuff on his way home. That'd be for both meat and fish.

Prices were okay and they do offer coupons too. I bought some Chilean sea bass and some grouper. We'll see how it is and maybe we'll order up a whole red snapper later this week or next. So far seems pretty promising.

A few people mentioned a good shop out in Glenview (though according to the website I found, it is in Willmette?) called Burhop's. We might have to make the drive out that way and check it out some weekend. I'm not sure where it is, but I do know it is farther than Deerfield.

Jacobson Electric

Jacobson Electric
1035 Lake Cook Rd., Wheeling, IL 60090
847 808-0808

We went looking for a fan for the master bedroom since the one in there was ultra-modern and our furniture is decidedly not modern. We tried all the normal culprits (Home Depot, The Expo, Menards, etc., etc.) and wound up at Jacobson Electric after a recommendation from a lady at Walter E. Smithe (we'd run by there because the entertainment center the last owners left behind was from there and we couldn't figure out how to get the silly lights to come on...and I won't even describe how easy it is to do once you know how).

We wound up buying a cool Minka Aire fan from their Hearst Castle collection.

It just came in this past Thursday (or was it Wednesday?) and Tony spent a while getting it together. I don't have a final picture of it to post yet (with lamp shades and all) because it turns out it had a defective transmitter (a small amount of cussing preceded that discovery) and the company is sending a replacement. So for now we've got a half-hung fan in the bedroom. Good thing it still feels fairly winter-y and we don't really need it yet.

Here's the old fan, which I'm going to put up for sale on Craigslist soon:
And the new one, sans shades (well, and light bulbs, for that matter):

Landmark Grill & Lounge

Landmark Grill & Lounge
1633 North Halsted Street, Chicago, IL
(312) 587-1600

We had dinner at the Landmark before the show at Steppenwolf (reserved it through OpenTable). It's a happening kind of place (very trendy) opened up by the same guys who made Boka (just down the street) a success. We wound up on the catwalk level (there are multi-levels to the place, with a different look for each one). Since we were there early (pre-theatre dinner time) it was pretty quiet. By the time we were leaving you could see the crowd starting to gather.

The food was all very good, though I found the dinner portions to be just a tad too much. That might have just been the particular meal I ordered (a pork chop) -- it was literally a Fred Flintstone size hunk o' meat with a bone. But Tony's short rib plate was pretty big too, so I'm guessing they are all pretty big.

The service was great and very accommodating. When I couldn't decide between the wild mushroom risotto and the pork chop, he suggested I get a half order of the risotto as a starter, even though it isn't listed on the menu as an option. The risotto, by the way, was just lovely...creamy, earthy, and with just the right dash of white truffle oil on top.

All of the servers, including the new guy who mostly seemed to be doing water service, were all very nice and friendly. They were also knowledgeable -- after Tony asked for some wine notes on a particular bottle and the waiter responded with a full description, Tony sighed "We're in a real city now."

For dessert we tried one of the signature dishes -- a giant chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream and fudge sauce. We were expecting maybe a giant platter o' cookie, but it turns out to be more like a cylinder of cookie (probably about a can of soup size). Oh man, was it ever yummy. Moist. Like chocolate cookie squared. It'll be hard not to order that again, even though they have more fancified desserts. There's just something about comfort food from childhood.

Steppenwolf Theatre

Steppenwolf Theatre Company
1650 N. Halsted Street Chicago IL 60614
(312) 335-1650

Tony's friend Ilias called last week and asked if we wanted tickets to a performance at the Steppenwolf Theatre. He had a friend that couldn't go for some reason and he couldn't use them either (he does a lot of math-related tutoring -- you ever need a math tutor, you want Ilias). So we said "Sure, why not?" even though we didn't actually know which performance it would be for (there were 3 going on Saturday night: Betrayal by Harold Pinter, The Sparrow, and The Diary of Anne Frank).

Turns out it was for the Pinter production -- Betrayal -- a play about infidelity, honesty, passion, and, I suppose, trust. Considering the topic and the playwright, it had a surprising amount of levity in it. Altogether an excellent performance.

The theatre itself is also nice. We were in the upstairs theatre. It isn't huge, but it is a nice size. I doubt if there is a bad seat in it. I imagine the other theatres were the same way based on comments I overheard.

STEPPENWOLF THEATRE COMPANY IS A Chicago-based international performing arts institution committed to ensemble collaboration and artistic risk through its work with its permanent ensemble, guest artists, partner institutions and the community. Steppenwolf has redefined the landscape of acting and performance by spawning a generation of America's most gifted artists. Founded in 1976 as an ensemble of nine actors, Steppenwolf has grown into an internationally renowned company of forty-one artists whose talents include acting, directing, playwriting, filmmaking, and textual adaptation. No other American theater ensemble has survived as long and thrived as much as the Steppenwolf company of artists.

Steppenwolf has quite a few famous alumni, including John Malkovich, Joan Allen, and Gary Sinise.

Something's Brewing

Something's Brewing
1126 E Washington St., Grayslake, IL
(847) 543-1600

Something's Brewing is located next to Wine Knows, which is how we found it. We had lunch there last Saturday when we went by the wine shop. Yikes! You practically need to study up on the menu for a day or two before you go there to order -- tons of different sandwiches and labrettes (kind of like a pizza pita sandwich), soups, coffee drinks, baked goods...at least a wall's worth of menu items.

I tried a BLT (good -- nice crispy bacon, good toasted bread, perfect amount of mayo) and Tony tried a labrette (the one he had tasted kinda like a taco...really good but really huge. We could have split it). I really wanted to try all the desserts, but we held ourselves back. We're trying to lose some weight, which is really tough when you're surrounded by all new places screaming out for you to try them out.

You can also do a create-your-own gift basket thing here. All kinds of sinful dessert things to chose from to put in it. The dipped pretzels looked particularly good.

When we went back by the wine shop today to pick up our wine I got a carmel apple latte from Something's Brewing. Yum. Coffee drinks with way too many calories, but I kinda needed the caffeine.

The Byron Colby Barn & Wine Knows

Byron Colby Barn
1561 Jones Point RoadGrayslake, Illinois 60030
847.543.1202 or at bcbarn@prairiecrossing.com

Wine Knows
1130 Washington St., Grayslake, Illinois 60030
847-223-8402

Last Friday (yes, I am over a week behind in blogging) we went to our first Byron Colby barn event. Officially...

The Byron Colby Barn, a Lake County dairy barn, was built in 1885 and restored in 1996 to serve as a community center for Prairie Crossing and the larger community.

There are events there every month and you can even rent it out. It's quite nice and very picturesque. I understand the fitness center for the neighborhood is located in the basement of the barn (we haven't been in it yet; I've sent in our $10 key fob fee, but haven't gotten the key back yet).

This particular event was a wine tasting hosted by Wine Knows, a local wine shop in Grayslake owned by Phil and Lawrence. We've only met Phil so far and like him a lot -- he's a pretty cheerful guy with a short Santa Claus-ish beard. Of course, with a wine shop, aren't you pretty much guaranteed to be happy?

The wine tasting was nice, with a good selection of wine and appetizers (I'm afraid I didn't catch who the chef was). Phil had a distributor guy there with him (Mark? Matt? Pretty sure it started with an "M") who was also nice and a real pretty boy (but didn't seem stuck up for all of that) who really knew his wine (definitely a saving grace, like our 6' tall model-looking friend Barb's utter niceness and goofiness--all women would hate her if it weren't for that).

We went by the store the next day and found it to be well stocked and nice. They even have (in stock!) Reynolds Family wines and Darioush (including my only favorite white wine!). We went by again today (Sat the 14th) to pick up the wines we'd ordered from the tasting and found the store awash with people for the Spring Tasting (with most of the women gathered around Mark/Matt's table). Over 80 wines and probably over 100 people were there. Sadly, we'd just had lunch and weren't really prepared to taste any wine. But we'll definitely have to keep an eye open for future events. I think we've found our local wine shop (though no wine shop will ever fully replace Uncorked for us).

Lester's Material Service

Well, we took the first step to our new patio today. Had Lester's Material Service, Inc. come out to take a look. They are going to get a design back to us next week. They came highly recommended from a bunch of neighbors and seem to have done a lot of patios around the neighborhood.

Thinking of something in a greyish color palette with a seating wall and space for our table and our grill. Maybe even a fire pit. Possibly. Not sure if there's really room for that or not.

Picture...of a ginormous picture...

So, there it is. The ginormous flamenco dancer oil painting. On the wall. How we managed to get it up there I will never understand. It's wwwwwaaaaayyyyy taller than I am.

Chris' Cycle Center

Chris' Cycle Center
Libertyville 847-680-9622

According to the web, the address is 130 Peterson Road. Er....I dunno. I know if I take 137, I run right into it. Does Peterson turn into 137?

Well, at any rate, we went there on Sunday. Actually, first we stopped off at Libertyville Cyclery(800 N Milwaukee Ave, 847-362-6030 -- which I think is on the same road as Chris', just farther down...so I'm really not sure about the addresses). But we didn't get anything from them. They seemed bigger and possibly better equipped but a) no one asked to help us and b) they didn't have the type of bike I wanted.

We stopped off at Chris' Cycle Center. It's a small shop in a strip mall. There was an older gentleman there. I don't know if he was the owner or an employee or what, but he was super nice. And, most importantly, he had the type of old fashioned bike I wanted to get. A cruiser-ish one. It even came with a little water bottle and a cell phone holder (not that I was looking for that feature).

He adjusted it, kept throwing in stuff (I have a bell!) and discounting stuff, and was just an all around nice guy. Tony got a bike too. Same type, more or less, just a different color. Mine is mint and his is black.

I tried it out today and took a little spin around the neighborhood. Boy, am I outta shape.

Tsukasa of Tokyo

Tsukasa of Tokyo
561 N Milwaukee Avenue, Vernon Hills, IL 60061-1593, (847) 816-8770

We tried Tsukasa the other day when we were out driving around and needed lunch. It's hard to tell from the outside exactly what kind of restaurant it is (other than Japanese...you know, the name is pretty obvious). So we weren't expecting it to be one of those Benihana-type places (the Florida equivalent being Arigato's). Amazingly, a lot of the clientele were Asian. I mean, I like these type of places okay every now and then but I generally find them a little on the Asian-cheesy side.

This one is pretty classy inside. From their website I gather that it is a new location with over 10,000 square feet of space. It does feel pretty big when you are inside it. The decor is pretty understated but nice.

I had the chicken and shrimp and Tony had the steak and chicken. No complaints about the food but no stunning accolades either. The soup starter looked a bit better than it was, but it wasn't bad. The chef was pretty quiet and didn't do a lot of knife-flashing, but that could have been in response to the other people that were seated at the table with us. They were on a business lunch and pretty much chatted the whole time. There was one funny moment when the chef tossed some fake soy sauce on the one girl. She let out a yell and then did the little Japanese-girl-laughing-behind-the-hand thing. Kinda funny.

Max's Dawg House

Max's Dawg House
1438 S. Milwaukee Avenue, Libertyville, IL 60048, (847) 367-4515

We tried Max's for lunch one day last week. I like Chicago-style hot dogs, but they take a little getting used to. Maybe it's because I don't have the biggest mouth in the world (reputation notwithstanding) and it's hard to eat a hot dog with an entire slice of pickle on it. Pretty good dogs here, though. And the chili cheese fries were good too -- just huge! Next time, we split the small instead of the large.

Interesting note: Max makes homemade croutons and sells them from the restaurant too. They looked pretty good. Maybe I'll try some sometime.

Pictures...Tony installing the new closet
