My dad (RIP) used to make all kinds of wild berry wine and jams, and as I age I find myself doing many of the things he did. 3 years ago I discovered a mulberry tree that I could harvest and made nearly 5 lb of jam. This year I've decided to do wine I managed to harvest 10 lb of red and 10 lb of White from our local park. Just got the primary ferment going on the second batch, the reds, and everything is looking good so far. White will be around 11% ABV, and the red may be as high as 14%. Edit: Oops, recipe is mulberries, acid blend, sugar and red star yeast, nutrient and pectic

Got rid of the shower, 42" bathtub and wasted-space box between. Added privacy walls so the toilet is not visible from the window. Added in-floor heating, receptacle for bidet, ceiling spot, extractor fan and sloped floor to accommodate curbless shower with drain flange on slab. Barn door replaced inswing door that limited bathtub access when open, and standing in front of right sink perilous with the door closed. The countertop slab, bench cap and window sill were fabricated by a stone shop, all else was DIY.

My dear fiancee waited a whole year since we moved into the house for her Master Bath to be completed, and I am glad I can check that off.

Got rid of the huge 42" tub, the unnecessary tub box and the corroded shower enclosure and in-swing door. Added the walls so you have privacy on the toilet from the window and from the door. First time doing Kerdi.

I took guidance from the sub on how to work with the variation in length on the mosaics, came up with a great method which worked out great for my horizontal grout lines.

In-floor heating, wash and dry bidet, curbless walk-in and a soaking tub. She is thrilled.

Edit: someone commented I should have taken the tile to the ceiling, then deleted it. To you I say, fuck! I absolutely should have! 🤫

Happy goobers!

Didn't have enough pieces of jolly to finish, so have the last 7 sticks to set.

For setting them, should I pack with thinset and pick it out of the grout lines, or use a mastic? A couple that I had set I later removed at the 4 hour mark after I noticed they weren't fully bonded.

Change of plane says caulk rather than grout, but not for jolly? Should these be grouted? Mapei Ultracolor Plus FA.
