{Today's Letters}
Wednesday, March 10, 2010
Today's Letters: Dear Mr. Loerke, today you sent me an email saying you were bringing home enough leftovers to feed two Emo's or one Timo. I like your proportion analogy. Dear Tuesday, you couldn't have been a more beautiful day. 73*, sunny, and not a cloud in the sky (insert 3 thank you's here). Dear Cafe Brazil, for lunch you gifted me with free Fruit Pancrepes and a Chai Latte. Thanks for always being so generous with your entree giveaways. Dear Husband, 9 days is a long time to be gone. I'll probably have gray hair and dentures by the time you come home. Hope you find those sexy.

I've been wanting to tackle this project for a long time, but I never had the guts to do it.
This bagel recipe intimated me big time. I thought it looked way more complicated than I could handle...and although it is a bit complicated and time consuming, it's very doable. :) If I can do it - you can do it.
I had a nice weekend with not many plans and it was the perfect time to take on the beast of the bagel recipe. I spread the making/baking over two days. I recommend doing the same or you will have to dedicate most of your day to bagel making...and I'm guessing if you're anything like me - you don't have time for that. :) I'd encourage you to try this though because they turned out delicious and I definitely would make them again. I may try making the dough in my bread machine next time just to cut down on time, but these were still worth the work! Another version I'd like to try is whole wheat.
Homemade Bagels
Yield: 12 large or 16 medium bagels
For the sponge:
1 tsp. (0.11 oz.) instant yeast
4 cups (18 oz.) unbleached bread flour
2 ½ cups (20 oz.) water, at room temperature
For the dough:
½ teaspoon (0.055 oz.) instant yeast
3 ¾ cups (17 oz.) unbleached bread flour
2 ¾ teaspoons (0.7 oz.) salt
1 tablespoon (0.5 oz.) honey
To finish:
1 tablespoon baking soda
Cornmeal, for dusting
Desired toppings (such as cinnamon sugar, cheese, seeds, etc.)
*"Everything" topping: combine 4 tsp. each of poppy seeds, sesame seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion and 2 tsp. kosher salt)
*Cinnamon sugar coating: Combine Cinnamon & Sugar (equal ratios) with melted butter and mix until consistency is smooth and spreadable. Coat bagels with mixture using a pastry brush.
To make the sponge, stir the yeast into the flour in a medium mixing bowl. Add the water, whisking or stirring only until it forms a smooth, sticky batter.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave at room temperature for approximately 2 hours, or until the mixture becomes bubbly. It should swell to nearly double in size and collapse when the bowl is tapped on the countertop.
To make the dough, in the same mixing bowl, add the additional yeast to the sponge and stir. Then add 3 cups of the flour and all of the salt and honey. Stir until the ingredients form a ball, slowly working in the remaining ¾ cup flour to stiffen the dough.
Transfer the dough to the counter and knead for at least 10 minutes. The dough should be firm, but still pliable and smooth. There should be no raw flour – all the ingredients should be hydrated. If the dough seems dry and rips, add a few drops of water and continue kneading. If the dough seems tacky or sticky, add more flour to achieve the stiffness required. The kneaded dough should feel satiny and pliable but not be tacky.
Immediately divide the dough into 4 ½ ounce pieces for standard bagels, or smaller if desired (I recommend using a kitchen scale to actually weigh the dough in order to ensure they are all the same size). Form the pieces into rolls. Cover the rolls with a damp towel and allow them to rest for approximately 20 minutes.
The following day (or when you are ready to bake the bagels), preheat the oven to 500° F with the two racks set in the middle of the oven. Bring a large pot of water to a boil (the wider the pot the better), and add the baking soda. Have a slotted spoon or skimmer nearby. Have your toppings ready. Remove the bagels from the refrigerator and gently drop them into the water, boiling only as many comfortably fit (they should float within 10 seconds).
After 1 minute flip them over and boil another minute. If you like very chewy bagels, you can extend the boiling to 2 minutes per side.
While the bagels are boiling, sprinkle the same parchment-line sheet pans with cornmeal. If you want to top the bagels, do so as soon as they come out of the water.
When all the bagels have been boiled, place the pans on the 2 middle shelves in the oven. Bake for approximately 5 minutes, then rotate the pans, switching shelves and giving the pans a 180˚ rotation. After the rotation, lower the oven setting to 450° F and continue baking for about 5 minutes, or until the bagels turn light golden brown. You may bake them darker if you prefer.
Remove the pans from the oven and let the bagels cool on a rack for 15 minutes or longer before serving.

To be honest, i have never ventured out to try any other product from Estee Lauder. As some of you may know, i love their Double Wear foundation. If you haven't heard or tried this foundation, i would highly recommend for you to check it out.
As of the 27th of September Estee Lauder came out with a new eyeliner - *Little Black Eyliner. This is no ordinary liner. The liner consists of 2 ends which have different tips. 1 tip is your usual felt tip while the other side is a paddle shape which can be used to draw a thin and thick line.
- Long wearing
- Smudge proof
- Non flaky
- Colour True
- Waterproof
At first the tip is quite hard and sharp (thin) but it will eventually soften up making application easier.
I found that once i applied the liner and waited for it to dry, it lasted all day on my eyelids without any primer, i'd say it is smudge proof and doesn't flake. At the end of the day i just removed it with the Lancome makeup remover which was easy. It is waterproof to an extent - but most eyeliners do smudge when they come in contact with alot of water.
Overall, i would recommend this eyeliner to everyone, it's great how you can draw both thick and thin lines in 1 product. As for the lasting power - It doesn't smudge and what not. If you are curious, i would suggest for you to swatch the liner instore. The liner is available at all Estee Lauder counters - Myer & David Jones for $45.00
As you can see in the picture, all sorts of thickness of lines can be easily drawn.
A few other eyeliner that you may like to check out
- Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner
- Dolly Wink Eyeliner
- Clio Kill Black Eyeliner

Room to improve in your garden
Garden rooms, offices or studios can be a handy and economically sound extension to your daily and working lives, writes John Cradden
If you have the necessary space in your backyard, building a proper garden room, office or studio has many things going for it.
They are more than just glorified sheds because you can fit them out with all the same kinds of services, insulation, fittings and finishes as you would find in your main home and they'll be habitable even during the winter months.
It's the essential versatility of such buildings that make them so appealing but also the physical separation from the home whether you use it as an office or a studio; a teenage hangout or a place to workout; a space for your utilities, brushes and brooms or even as a spare bedroom.
They can also be a cost-effective alternative to extending your home or doing an attic conversion, particularly if you choose one that's a reasonable size. In most cases, they don't require planning permission - you can build anything up to 25 square metres without it, but only as long as you don't reduce the remaining open space in your garden or yard to less than 25 square metres.
They generally take a matter of days or no more than two weeks to construct, which means they don't create anything like the upheaval or disruption that would come with building an extension.
As with anything construction-related, you are limited only by your budget but, if you are flexible about the core building material, you may be surprised at what you can get for your money. You could spend anything between €15k-30k on the upmarket 'designer' garden rooms or offices from the likes of Shomera, Gardenrooms, Ecospace and Ecohouse, many of which have been extensively featured in property sections and lifestyle magazines. These tend to be timber-framed and panelled, and therefore easier and quicker to construct.
"I find people have a budget in mind but are very open to learning about how their GardenRoom will best suit their lifestyle," said John Sherry of Gardenrooms.ie. "With flexible living very much a way of life now, we find that many people stretch to the largest garden room that they can afford, making it a multipurpose room to suit their family's needs."
Cheaper options include log cabins, such as those from firms like Loghouse.ie in Wicklow, Woodpecker Log Cabins in Galway or Beaver Log Cabins in Donegal, while there's always the concrete block-built option or something made out of steel, which you can get from firms like Steeltech Sheds or Adman Steel Sheds.
Unlike in the world of the Three Little Pigs, there is no natural hierarchy for the robustness of timber, steel or bricks, although some will say that timber buildings look much nicer and are much easier and cheaper to heat, making them a bit more eco-friendly.
Wicklow firm Barna Buildings does traditional concrete buildings as garden offices, which have a pebble-dash finish. While nowhere near as trendy as a Shomera-type garden room, a 3x4m construction can be built for just €4,000, although this doesn't include the windows and the concrete base or any fittings or finishes.
But proprietor Alan Kelly says he has also branched into a log cabin style product called Duraboard, a fibre cement product which is marketed as being a more durable and maintenance-free alternative to traditional log cabins. The bottom line is, do your research and choose your supplier well and whatever you build will stand for decades with a bit of care and maintenance.
However, if you're a dab hand with a hammer and with a bit of spare time on your hands, you could always build it yourself and possibly save money.
You could, of course, do it from scratch with the help of an ebook like the one published by Dominic Jones (visit Gardenofficeplans.com).
However, a kit seems like a much easier option and you don't have to look hard to find them online. Garden Rooms Ireland, for instance, offers kits with assembly instructions starting at €5,000 that comes with insulated panels, cedar cladding, aluminum clad doors, electrics and more.
"These kits don't come with a huge amount of flexibility but aren't that challenging to build to be honest," said Cormac Reynolds of Garden Rooms Ireland. "There's a need for a foundation and some people prefer to get help with the electrical system or plumbing if they're going to add some."
If a log cabin is more up your (garden) street, then there are kits for that, too, such as from Timber Kit Buildings in Cork.
Garden working and living: Top 3 options
1 Garden Rooms
These are the top of the range as far as garden rooms, offices or studios go. Timber-framed, panelled and cladded, they are sleek on the outside, plush on the inside, very well insulated and with all the trimmings. In other words, as far away from a shed as it is possible to get. They are available in a wide range of configurations, specifications and designs, including to ultra-eco 'Passive House' standard. Prices range from €19,200 (for 15 sq m) to €31,700 (25 sq m) for products from Gardenrooms.ie, while ECOS would charge between €900 and €1,200 per square metre for something very similar. A Shomera off-the-shelf MePad starts at about €13,000 rising to €18,000, and from €25,000-€40,000 for bespoke rooms. Available from Gardenrooms.ie, ECOS, Shomera and Ecohouse
2 Traditional Log Cabins
These are available as fully insulated cabins that can be lived in all year round. Loghouse makes its own windows and doors, which boast strong U-values. This 'Kilkenny' 4m x 3m model is currently on special offer at just €3,695 and comes with floor insulation and double glazed windows. Extras include roof insulation at €320 and a concrete foundation at €400. Available from: Loghouse.ie; see also Beaverlogcabins.ie or Woodpeckerlogcabins.com.
3 Duraboard
They may not look quite as sleek as Shomeras, but this 'Duraboard' building looks like a log cabin but is made from a woodgrain fibre cement wall that claims to be much more durable and maintenance free than traditional log cabins. The starting price for the most popular 4m x 3m metre configuration is just under €5,500, including the concrete base, PVC doors and double glazed windows. Insulation and other fittings are extra. Available from: www.irishlogcabins.ie

things that i learned from my experiences with miscarriage
for months i've been jotting down thoughts, mentally. like in the shower or right before i fall asleep. thoughts about the many lessons that i have learned over the past six or so months that i learned because of or about miscarriage.

I think that's a good way to think of our responsibility to mourn (after, of course, you're done calling them a jerk in your mind ;)). I think as women we attempt to make people feel better, and I know sometimes I try to do that by offering a solution. Most times a hug is just more effective.ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing Brooke! I'm so sorry that happened to you. I hope your message reaches another mom in need.ReplyDelete
I had 6 miscarriages and I kept my grief mostly to myself.ReplyDelete
I'm that kind woman your friend was talking about who seems to just keep moving and doesn't show any real signs of depression. Shows how much she knows.
This just means I handle it differently, not any better or worse than you. It doesn't mean someone like me feels it less or mourns less, just differently. We all have different coping mechanisms and I internalize I suppose. I can tell you, after 9 years, I still feel it and if I think about it too much, the tears will fall quite easily which I'm certain would surprise most people who know me.
I say, take as long as you need to take to get through (not over) it, cry as many tears as you want and it's okay. It's also okay not to cry, we are all different, we move through this world differently with different lessons to learn and different hills to climb.
I like your lesson that if it is awful to them, you'll let it be awful to you even if you don't understand it. I think I will strive to be more like that too.
katie - i totally agree!ReplyDelete
thanks hedy :)
jeanette - that's a very good point - that we all grieve differently. i'm always impressed at your compassion and strength, thank you so much for sharing your experiences with me!
Oh, people are the worst sometimes. Talking about infertility brings out the worst in people, too. I have one work friend who always tells me that my husband and I just need to open a bottle of wine and relax. (Apparently wine makes you ovulate now?!)ReplyDelete
That is all.
thank you for sharing brooke! you are very brave, and also very right! compassion and sensitivity towards others is always the best choice! thank you for a good reminder! :) love you girl!ReplyDelete
First off, I am sorry for your loss.ReplyDelete
Second, I agree with you whole-heartedly. Each persons grief is real and tangible. It might last 20 minutes or 20 years or come in waves, but it's there.
Third, people (myself included, unfortunately) say such insensitive things, without meaning or realizing they are unintentional cruel.
Thank you for your sharing a piece of you. It's never easy to put oneself out "there". and someday I'll share my heartache, but today is a good day. :)
This makes me cry.ReplyDelete

Additional Resources — Hunger
Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.' Then the righteous will answer him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? … And the King will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.' Matthew 25:34–40.
This passage of Scripture gives us a vivid picture of what Jesus wants our mission work to look like. Indeed many of our LWML Mission Grants help fund programs that address the issues of hunger and poverty. Sadly, hunger is a growing problem in the United States. According to www.feedingamerica.org, in 2015, 42.2 million Americans lived in food-insecure households, including 29.1 million adults and 13.1 million children.

Competition with specific components helps capitalisation
IPO and consolidation of domestic food enterprises allows competitiveness of products to be raised
By Andrey Romanovsky
Belgospishcheprom expects the forming of powerful food companies to accelerate the modernisation of production facilities and raise demand. "From specific food businesses, we can create holding companies," explains its Chairman, Ivan Danchenko. "Within the Customs Union, we'll be competing with powerful food companies from across the Russian Federation."
He notes that consolidation will used territorial principles, with several companies grouped around Gomel Fat Factory. Stolbtsy Fruit and Vegetable Processing Plant will operate in conjunction with Gorodeya Sugar Mill, while Malorita Cannery and Vegetable Dehydration Plant will liaise with Zhabinka Sugar Mill. Geography is extending, with Belsolod JSC already working with several starch plants and distilleries, alongside farms in the Ivanovo District. "Polotsk Beer is to liaise with Belsolod," adds Mr. Danchenko.
In his view, such integration will allow funds to accumulate, for direction into investment projects — including those associated with the development of raw materials. In addition, capital is to be raised through IPO (initial public offering); a pilot project is being implemented at the Minsk Factory of Sparkling Wines.
Interest in buying shares in such enterprises as Slodych and Lidapishchekontsentraty has been evident, with ordinary people able to purchase such securities (which can be sold for future profit or held for dividend returns). "At present, rates on savings exceed the return on shares," he admits. "However, sooner or later, deposit rates may fall to just 10 percent per annum."
We can assume that people's interest in shares will rise since benefits are indirect as well as direct: the range and quality of food products made by domestic enterprises should increase, since funds generated will be reinvested into modernisation.
Strategic investors are also to be attracted into the food industry; Moldovan wine producers are being encouraged to invest in Minsk Plant of Sparkling Wines, alongside companies specialising in containers, packaging and labels. Such interaction would enhance the competitiveness of Belarusian products, improving access to foreign retail outlets.

Anyone who follows me on Twitter (and particularly my @TerriOnPolitics account) will know just how concerned I am by the accelerating authoritarianism on display in my native United States. Playwright Liane Grant does follow me and so knew that the opportunity to chair a post-show discussion on her new play would be one I couldn't turn down…
What if you were black, gay and a woman in America right now?
In Half Me, Half You, Jess and Meredith are a married, interracial, gay couple living in New York in 2017 – the era of Trump – weathering a new wave of intolerance, discrimination and oppression, which is sweeping the nation and seeping into their home.
16 years later, Maya, a biracial British teen is forced into American life, braving the aftermath of a second civil war, and changing Meredith's life irrevocably.
Returning after its highly praised 2018 run in New York and London, in her remarkable writing debut, Liane Grant's Half Me, Half You confronts the reality of the current global climate and explores the consequences for future generations, while reminding us that we are all simply people searching for love and acceptance.
How are they manifesting in society, nationally and internationally? How is the arts industry addressing them? How big a problem is hate crime becoming in the UK today? What can we practically do as individuals to resist?
After the 6pm performance of Half Me, Half You on Monday 1 April 2019, I'll tackle issues explored in the play with Liane Grant and special guests including Olivier Award-winning actor and director Maria Friedman and Stop Hate UK's CEO Rose Simkins.

Subaru's most popular vehicle got an update for 2018 — but it's hard to tell by looking at it. Subtle exterior styling changes such as more angular headlights and a larger grille combine to keep the Outback's overall look clean. Small changes inside also make it more likable — and more comfortable.

It got the job done but was never really anything special. This year, materials quality is classier and everything just looks more luxurious to the eye and feels more luxurious to the touch — from the comfy leather seats to the low-gloss wood trim and new stitching on the upper dash of top trim levels.

Search engine optimization, often called SEO in short, is intended to allow websites to show up in search results when people look for products and services rather than just the company names. The thought process is that people on the lookout for things online are capable of finding a business website without any prior knowledge of the business or its name. There are different sorts of tricks and techniques that fall under SEO, but the good sustainable techniques, also known as "White hat SEO" are based on the idea of making your website easier for a search engine to study and comprehend, implying that they categorized you higher in searches for aptly relevant terms.
It is not that much of a difficult task to find a decent SEO agency online. Go to a search engine such as Google or Bing and type "SEO agency"; do not take into account the paid ads at the top, whichever firm has come up at the top of the search results are what you desire. To narrow things down a little, you could try expanding your search. For instance; if you live in India and want an agency then you can just type "Best SEO in India."
Another important thing that you ought to keep in mind is to stay away from the SEO agency that assures you a top position for certain keywords or something similar. The majority of search engines used personalized searching suggests that everyone observes websites in slightly different ranking positions depend on their personal search history. Absolute rankings are a thing of the past, any SEO company of India or elsewhere are claiming to provide such kind of service is lying through their teeth. Contemporary SEO will make use of the sustainable "white hat" techniques with the intention to bring useful traffic to your website. Once you have come across an SEO company that by and large looks adequate enough, then you will need to ask them some questions before you settle on to take their services. On top of that the customary check like existing client list and testimonials, it is always a smart idea to speak to them directly over the phone or meet in person.

Mayan Ruins
The Yucatan Peninsula is literally teeming with Mayan ruins. You will find them along the highways, walking through the jungle, even in the middle of golf courses.
Tulum was the only Mayan city built directly on the ocean. The site, which is thought to date from 400 - 900 A.D., is indeed worth a visit. After you have toured the grounds and admired the view, why not take a refreshing dip in the inviting waters of the Caribbean? There is a beautiful, pristine beach directly in front of the site.
Chichen Itza
One of the best known and most visited archaeological sites in the Yucatan, Chichen Itza's stunning examples of post-Classic period architecture really must be seen in person in order to be appreciated. We recommend that you hire a guide or at least buy a booklet to better understand this exceptional site. Chichen Itza can be reached by continuing on beyond Coba until you reach the Autopista at Valladolid. There are numerous daily tour buses that will take you there.

MOSCOW — For 48 hours, the two Russians and their Belarussian accomplice holed up in the dreary border town of Brest, waiting for two contacts from Poland to show up. To kill time and the autumn chill, the trio opened a bottle of vodka and began a round-the-clock drinking party.
When the Poles arrived in the city of 238,000 in western Belarus, the Russians produced the lead capsule they had stolen from a top-secret installation 1,200 miles to the east. The Poles examined it. Police, tipped in advance, then swooped down on the apartment to block the sale of illegal contraband--5 1/2 pounds of uranium.
"We caught them in the middle of the transaction," Vasily S. Kapitan, chief of investigations in the Belarus state prosecutor's office, said proudly.
The contraband--uranium oxide, a dark powder commonly formed into aspirin-sized pellets to fuel Soviet-made civilian power reactors--was meant to be smuggled into Poland for resale. Belarussian experts found that the material was not potent enough for use in a nuclear weapon.

In true Christmas style, having everyone around the table is a beautiful moment. It's one of the reasons why this time of year means so much to me.
Walking into the Christmas wonderland that is a department store during December, I'm always in complete awe of the decadence of festive table settings. This year I was lucky enough to style my own Christmas lunch table with Marks & Spencer.
The online Christmas shop at Marks & Spencer has an incredible selection of beautiful homewares and festive decorations making setting the table the easy part. The tricky part is trying to not order absolutely everything - the shopping basket cull was brutal. Online shopping was the best decision for this particular shopping haul. For one thing, there's the beauty of express courier air shipping; I placed my order late on a Thursday night and received shipment the following Monday. Most importantly, lugging-goods-around-a-shopping-centre-and-through-the-carpark was bypassed, instead everything was delivered right to my door.
gather & feast...
I'm sharing with my selection of homewares and decorations ordered through Marks & Spencer, hopefully this will inspire your Christmas table.
4 Pack Scalloped Napkins
Medium Gold Leaf Pillar Candle
Wreath Dinner Candle Holder
3 Pack Red Berry Tree Picks
Bellagio 2 Pack Wine Glasses
Maxim Gold 12 Piece Dining Box Set
Set of 4 Metallic Dinner Candles

No Christmas feast would be complete without cake! Thank you to @occasionalbakermelb for this festive creation, complete with gold-foiled cherries.

Hello Friends!
We have a fun theme for you this week over at Just Add Ink, and that is Typography! I chose to use word dies in a repetitive theme for my card this week.
I layered white words on the white background, choosing only one of the words to add colour. I did this by colouring the die cut with Copic Markers and then coated it in Wink of Stella Glitter Pen and glossy accents so it really pops!
I decided to do a coordinating strip on the top and bottom as well, which I created with the same Copic markers and then just added a few clear sequins to the card.

Most of us are familiar with microwave oven. We shortly call it microoven. It is an useful machine for a comfortable life. It is an essential kitchen appliances. It is used to heat food. There is an interesting thing in a microwave oven.When we give food in a microwave oven within a plate, only the food become hot but the plate do not get hot. But why do the plate not become hot? Today I am going to tell you about the formula of a microwave oven.
Percy Spencer invented the first microwave oven after World War II from radar technology developed during the war. Named the "Radarange", it was first sold in 1947.Raytheon later licensed its patents for a home-use microwave oven that was first introduced by Tappan in 1955, but these units were still too large and expensive for general home use. The countertop microwave oven was first introduced in 1967 by the Amana Corporation, which was acquired in 1965 by Raytheon.
The heart of every microwave oven is the high voltage system . Its purpose is to generate microwave energy. The high-voltage components accomplish this by stepping up AC line voltage to high voltage, which is then changed to an even higher DC voltage. This DC power is then generated to microwaves that creates thermal energy cooks the food. Actually, the main theme of a microwave oven is hidden in its name. Micro + Wave + Oven. In a microwave oven microwaves is used to heat food. Generally, waves of 2500 MHz or 2.5GHz is used in microwave oven. There are many types of microwave, but electromagnetic wave is used in this machine. Microwave oven heats food by bombarding it with electromagnetic radiation in the microwave spectrum causing polarized molecules in the food to rotate and build up thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating. It heat foods quickly because excitation is fairly uniform in the outer 25–38 mm of a dense food item containing lot of water.
Now, the question is why the plate don't become hot. Because the wave which is used in the microwave oven can easily pass through siramics, glass & most of plastic type materials. So, the plate do not become hot. On the other hand foods absorb the wave and become hot.

Delete-ify Yourself Before Your Big Day
It's engagement season. According to Weddingwire, there are 10 days throughout the year where couples ask one another to put a ring on it: Christmas, New Year's, and Valentine's Day are three days that fall onto Weddingwire's list.

"I have called the Bluegrass my home since I was about four years old and have always been in love with the land and people. During my five years as office manager of the Conservancy family, I was inspired to purchase a homestead in rural Scott County. My husband, children and I love to walk our wildflower trails and creek bed looking for deer tracks, turkey feathers and crayfish in almost any kind of weather. I believe Bluegrass Land Conservancy helps protect this land for my kids so they can someday do the same with their children."

Your Momma didn't raise no fools, so you already KNOW this is a terrific Lake Norman waterfront lot! Enjoy beautiful sunrise views and some unique features - it has a ramp AND a boat house, both of which you can't build on Lake Norman any more*. It also has a pier. It used to have a floating dock, so buyer would apply for a new one (be sure to ask about the process to apply for permits). This non-HOA community has a lake access lot, where a meager, voluntary $50/year gives you the opportunity to launch your boat, have picnics, join your neighbors for a party, and other such lake fun. There are very simple deed restrictions (example, minimum 800 SF living space on the main level) - they are just enough to keep the neighborhood looking nice, but not "crazy". It is only about a 5-minute drive to oodles of shops and restaurants, about 5 minutes to three different I-77 ramps, and about 5-10 minutes to the schools. Come on over and take a look! *need work; ask for details
