nyny back down a bit (two recipes, shrimp creole and chicken)
I bought him some tool chests for Christmas a few years ago....they're still
empty. Do you need a couple more?? "Fred" wrote in message ... husband's storage. .... Altho, just yesterday I spent a sum on new tool chests for the basement which is getting hard to move around (G) On Tue, 9 Dec 2003 22:12:16 -0800, "Brenda Hammond" wrote: "Fred" wrote in message .. . Thanks. Both sound simple (important these days (g)) and good. I did see a recipe for Tequila/Lime shrimp today that I may try. It was on my desk at work from two years ago. I decided the desk needed to have its surface revealed to the daylight once every 5 or so years. You sound like DH. I'm sure his desk and work bench haven't seen daylight for at least a few years. When I moved in, the floor in two rooms hadn't seen any kind of light for probably 6 or 8 years.

"Fred" wrote in message ... Well, maybe. Wish I had know before yesterday (G) Maybe DH will get around to using them someday.... Getting the larger one down the basement steps was a real trial - it will never be removed!!! (G) But at least your stuff will be more organized and you'll be able to get around in your basement! The only room in our apartment now that is TOTALLY unorganized is DH's room. It contains his computer desk and all the stuff that goes along with that and a workbench that is covered with stuff. He's an electronics geek, so has thousands of electronic parts (capacitors, resistors, etc.). You name it, he's got it. Quite often someone will come into our store asking for a certain item, that no one on the coast has and guess what? DH has it! It has happened many times. Now people come out of the woodwork when they're looking for something "unusual". The floor on his room is also covered with "stuff". There is a little trail, wide enough to get in the door, to the computer desk, then on to the workbench. That's it! Drives me nuts!! I've gone in and cleaned it a few times when he was out of town, then when he came back he couldn't find anything. I've since given up cleaning his "room".
