I decided on tile for two reasons, cost, so much cheaper than granite and it goes with the style and period our home was built, which was 1939. I love the look of tile. Reminds me of old California bungelows, so that is right up my alley. Hope you check back to read this.<br />RobinRobin@DecoratingTennisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09896928242190026852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5533478526037705566.post-25072560122036665422010-07-06T16:19:33.990-05:002010-07-06T16:19:33.990-05:00I just discovered you blog and I had to comment ab...I just discovered you blog and I had to comment about your beautiful kitchen. I so loooove your blue and white kitchen countertop!! That is exactly the look I want for my kitchen! I have a very large kitchen, covered in reddish bricks and wood cabinets. I own lots of Frenc faience and antique copper. My appliances are white. I think the blue/whit tiles will lighten balance the other dark colors and will emphasize the Provence look I like. So, what's my problem? That everybody and their brother are telling me to get granite countertops! I don't want granite! I think it's a passing phase that will look dated in 10 years, whereas tiles have been around since the Roman empire! Your advice, please?Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00013575045318957453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5533478526037705566.post-87507923845294653912010-07-06T08:52:42.275-05:002010-07-06T08:52:42.275-05:00Your home is looking great!

Once when we were in Beverly Hills I went to the corner where the Derby used to stand and was imagining who all had walked or stood on that very spot. I wished they could have perserved it, but not to be :( You and little Bentley have a great day :)Robin@DecoratingTennisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09896928242190026852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5533478526037705566.post-56639571156563473602010-07-05T07:21:29.086-05:002010-07-05T07:21:29.086-05:00Good Morning Robin!

Of course if we run into any movie stars we'll try not to stare like Lucy did when she went to the Brown Derby with Fred and Ethel and they saw William Holden. Remember the scene where Bill turned the table on Lucy and started to stare back at her and Lucy had this huge fork full of spaghetti, could not reach the end and Ethel pulled out a pair of manicure scissors and cut off the strands of pasta?? <br /><br />Can't wait to see more of the Cape House!!<br /><br />Love,<br />Susan and Bentley<br />xxooSusan Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04323206599839838089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5533478526037705566.post-84158509960479868492010-07-05T06:56:39.117-05:002010-07-05T06:56:39.117-05:00The cape house is adorable!
