CannaGranny’s Corner a Thread For General BS and Good Will On BudBuilders

I mean you kind of have to be ocd to have white everything. I hate white. We had white appliances when we moved in and they were the first thing to go... Black all day, stainless is also a pain, but most new shit is stainless... our dishwasher is and I'm sure when we upgrade the fridge again it will have to be too. My hardwood in the kitchen is midrange color wise... I could let it collect dirt for 2 months and you would hardly be able to tell lol. I also hate white vehicles, mostly because I think they're ugly, but also because they get dirty instantly.
Cars, bikes, equipment all metallic grey. Any new appliances black if possible. Stainless if we don’t have a better option...white blows.

My mom is one of those OCD white home people. She’s into colour now but visits are like going into a CDC clean room. 😂
 
I have a cleaning business and I can confirm that most things that are the prettiest are the biggest pain in the ass to clean lol. All the quartz and marble countertop that you're not really supposed to use most products on because it ruins the seal... scalding water a bit of dawn and some elbow grease is what I use, then wipe dry and polish with a dry tea towel. I have one lady that has black, and one that has white... both horrible choices for cleaning because every streak is visible. I have one person that has stone tile in the kitchen... it's white and has divets that hold the dirt, so you literally have to scrub it with a brush or it still looks dirty... I've contemplated dropping that client over that floor lol. Everyone has "stainless" steel, which is a horrible name because it gets dirty AND stained super easy it seems. I use the stainless steel wipes, and again polish with a clean cotton towel. I have one client with an entirely white kitchen, white quartz, white floor, white cabinets, white sink, white walls... why would you do that to yourself? Oh yeah, cause you're gonna pay someone to clean it anyway... I should start saving for a shoulder replacement now. 🤣
Also any stone should have a sealer applied once a year…. I can tell you im probably the only person who actually bothers…. All the tiles i strip and reseal and any stones… be it floors, walls, counters. It makes a world of difference
 
Magnets don’t stick to mine, just every single time you touch it it leaves a print. Finger print? No. Just any oil from your skin! Burns my butt to have to polish my fridge!

These are what I use. Needs to be clean first, then wipe on with the grain and polish off with a clean dry cotton cloth... shit practically looks like a mirror. I do it in sections because if it dries completely it's harder to polish to perfection. It does seem to ward off prints a bit better than just bare stainless too.

I just want to fry a damn chicken and not need the merry maids to clean up my wreckage!

Yup, same stuff I use. The spray on for the stove fridge and dishwasher, and the pump spray for the countertops. It’s good stuff.

I was using the spray till I found the wipes, I find them way easier, puts on a nice even layer where they spray runs and can make marks if you're not fast enough. I usually do the wax on wax off method lol.

I haven’t been able to find the wipe’s lately, you are right about that. Another crazy thing I’m having a hard time finding is pledge.
 
That would require me to know how to make hard candy, I have a quart of infused Coconut oil. I plan on melting 1/2 cup add 1/2 cup chocolate chips and a scoop of peanut butter to the oil. pour into molds, let harden, package and ship....
what recipe do you use for hard candy?

Don't get me wrong I love some peanut butter, ever try it on pancakes? Peanut butter then syrup ... It'll stick to you if doesn't bubble you up lol

But the candy will def ship easier without any worries. I use coconut oil for the hard candies, I've found you can definitely increase the amount of oil some other recipes call for. Adding an emulsifier like sunflower lecithin does some magic for making that easier.

Black appliances for the win.
Ever wonder how a magnet sticks to a SS fridge?
SS is supposed to be non ferrous, but they change the % of different metals and still call it SS.
My buddy bought SS stuff and had a fit.
Being copper guys we know magnets should not stick to SS.
Dosen't stick to or fridge, he tapes to our wall.

Thats a union pacific

Magnets don't stick to the SS part of mine. They do stick to the side, though.

BTW, a bud of The Convergence will stick to the refrigerator. And most things it comes in contact with.

I've noticed people starting to wise up to having SS appliances. They're nice and give a pro look to the kitchen but suck when it comes time to clean.

I've done a lot of all white kitchens lately for friends and clients including appliances.

I think it's more a testament to you than anything else..........

I got rid of the white kitchen, how I ended up with this SS. Getting wise to it is a good choice of words. I’ve spent more time cleaning this stuff than anything I have ever had. Yeah, it’s pretty, but in my house I need practical. I actually cook in the kitchen, a lot!

Exactly! I've done rehabs in high dollar houses and half the time the commercial SS ovens don't ever get turned on. It's all for looks.

I did one Beverly Hills mansion where they had 2 kitchens. One for the cooking staff(They had a pro chef that would cook their meals) and another one just for show. Insanity in my book but if they got it I guess they want to flaunt it!!!

A testament to your character if you ask me…. No BS, welcoming, real and a genuinely good person who is not just giving and helpful but does it with grace and poise.

One of the things that causes me great laughter is how much emphasis is now being put on bathrooms!
Yes the roof needs replaced, the rooms are small, not enough windows, but… did you see that on suite ???

I did a bathroom just like you described at a latin pop stars home that lived in Thousand Oaks, California.

We demoed it down to stud and ran all kinds of crazy plumbing and wiring with lots of LED this and that. Italian marble mosaic floors with a separate sauna room, huge slate shower with a gazillion water nozzles and a vintage extra large clawfoot bathtub. Bathroom footprint was 40' x 30' and led into a full his and hers walk in closet that we did in all mahogany and teak.

That's almost as big as my whole house. Well...actually bigger if you include the walk in.

I have a 5x5 tent in need of a light, manual says it’ll cover 6x5 at 20” for flowering stage. What do y’all think?? If it’s not big enough she said we can return it and get a different one❤️❤️

Yes I looked at that. I'll do that when I have time to read ...comprehend and follow the instructions. Chocolates are easy and I need to ship tomorrow. I need to make another batch of oil up, I have 32oz bottle of MCT oil that my wife likes better than coconut oil for taste in the gummies. At the same time I'm making that oil I'll try to make a batch of hard candy with coconut oil. Once I've done it the first time It'll be a whizz the second, I just need to go through the process once to get it....

Peanut butter makes it taste like Ferrero Rocher chocolates....1687126674993.png

I run Bestva lighting. They're good lights but I would suggest you go with a bar setup. I have yet to see a COB style light able to cover that much area effectively. I have the 2000 and their older Blurple and, even then, they don't cover the entire 5 x 5.

The house required a fire sprinkler system. That is only required when the house is so large that it falls into commercial regs.

When we first sat down with the owner we asked him what he envisioned the bathroom would look like. He said he wanted to do it as a surprise for his wife and that he wanted it to be like her own personal spa so that she could have a few friends over and they could all enjoy it as if they were going to a professional spa. We even built a separate quiet room and massage cave with table and zen decor.
