Okay, here we go. After a full exciting week of cooking until we can't eat more we decided to post the dinner menus and some photos. Be assured we had a BALL cooking and drinking wine. Big fun!

Message for Paul- SOS

Hi Paul-
I am unable to edit a post (my last post) and I am posting photos from Photobucket- I was able to see the photo in my post but then I went to edit the post and only a URL is there- but the main problem is that I cannot edit the post. Can you help please?

thanks- Cathy

By the way, I cannot send a private message ergo this post.

 
Cathy, I tried to fix your post- it's fighting me...still working on it...

First it gave me a link only, then my FF crashed and now it's not sized correctly, but there...still working on it.

FYI, the best way to contact Paul is to email him at the address listed at the bottom of the swap.

But you know what's weird? I can embed from my own PB acct, just not the FK one...see??? (Now this is odd!)

Day 1- #4, #5
Day 2- #6, #7, #8
Day 3- #9
Day 4- #10, #11
Day 5- #12, #13
Day 6- #14, #15
Day 7- #16
Day 8 no photos of food but please put up #17 of Richard.

Thank you so much!

 
Great pics!! Wow, Cathy, is that your kitchen??! All those cabinets and counter space {{swoon}}

 
Done! (I did have to resized/save as new all the photos tho, changed all to 500 wide to fit pg)

I don't know why PB will not let you replace original when editing, but it's never worked for me. I always have to save as new to get anything to work.

All your photos were sized too big to fit the page, this is likely the setting you are using on the camera when taking the photos.

 
Thank you so much, Maria

Tim took most of the photos with a "real" camera instead of a phone like I use smileys/smile.gif Sorry to cause you extra work.

 
Yes- and I know how lucky I am for sure.

After many years of having no kitchen space at all we built this house. I've had ten wonderful years in this kitchen. It is a joy to cook in.

 
Best countertops in the whole entire world! I had to pull Bill over to see them in these pics

He's a bowler! Wonderful pictures and menus and friendship.

 
Hah- good one, Angie.

To those that don't know: there was a bowling alley on Kauai that closed about 45 years ago. We found a guy who stored the bowling lane wood all those years- and we were able to get enough to make a 30+ ft long counter as well as the top of an island. It was truly a score for us. The counter has all the markings from the bowling alley lane.

 
Okay...I'm envious of the get-together, the food, the view, and the kitchen. How

wonderful and happy every one/thing/vista looks.
