    he better be careful, he's got a good start at being a good husband!
    I'd like to see a picture of your cone rack, that's what I need a solution for.

    Awesome! I still have a shelf/bookcase my son made when he was 10, it is very lopsided but I love it!

Oh well sorry that picture is sideways...
    That is wonderful. I would be so proud as well. Something to keep forever!

    what a thoughtful thing for him to do. It is so useful, I am sure he could not have pleased you more. We all need one of those :thumbup: Anne
