Colonial six panel doors with rot-proof frames and ball bearing hinges, same for the back but in a nine lite version.

They spend a lot of time taking basic ingredients, basic building material, heck anything off-the-shelf and then just sprucing it up.

I'm sure their cardboard counter tops where delicious yet a little tough swallowing. This new age is all about doordash, grubhub, and any other easy fix for them without the thought of the cost. I'm talking the REAL WORLD not just little Laconia. Home Cooking started with parents who COULD NOT AFFORD to take their 3 kids out to dinner. Now Credit Cards pay for the CONVIENCE. Maybe coming down a couple of notches to actual reality (the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them ) might see the forest thru the trees.
