GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I graduated from Arab High School, and having just completed my associate's degree on my way to my bachelor's, I can say with all confidence that I was better prepared in most cases than students from a lot of other schools in my area. I was blessed to have several great teachers who worked with me, and who heavily influenced my desire to teach one day. The school does have high expectations of its students, but those expectations require us to expect great things of ourselves. I'd love to come back in a few years as a teacher, and I would recommend the Arab school system to anyone who wants to be challenged to excel.
I just sent a lengthy comment on your band that was in Chicago, Il. last weekent(l7March2012.
I am currently enrolled as a sophomore at Arab High School, and I love it! Most people believe that Arab is a school full of rednecks and sluts, but i can truthfully tell you that it's not. Everyone gets along with pretty much everyone. If Arab enrolls new students, they will fit in within the first five minutes their there. Now, the teachers... well, they are just wonderful. I love my teachers, and even the teachers I don't have. They don't just make you do work work work, all the time, they also, like to have fun while they teach. Yes, the classes are hard, but doesn't that better prepare you for life ahead of you? Yes, it does. I am in Honors English 10 at the moment, and my teacher teaches this specific course as a college class. Yes, its hard, but I am glad she does it that way, because it prepares me. Extra ciricular activities are great! The sports teams this year have excelled so much. Like our football team takin us to the 2nd round of playoffs this year. Everything about this school is great, and i am glad to say, I'm part of this school district. :)
Arab is interesting. Very clickish. Almost impossible for new students to fit in. If you conform to the idealistic rules set by the administration (Principle to the teachers) at Arab High, then the staff will not bother you. Beware... read all the fine print! Rules are left up to staff members interpretation. No clarity from the Principle or Vice on the rules which leads to confusion by the students. They promote all students are the same. No individualism. Students beware of atheletics program. If you have an interest in any sport other than the traditional programs, look to another school.
I, too, am a student at Arab High School, and I am fully confident it is one of the best in state. We are always first and second in our test scores, such as the Alabama Reading and Mathematics exam, and our number of kids who pass the graduation exam are almost a perfect 100%. Quality education and great teachers. The extra curricular activites are great, too! Everyone can find something they're interested in. The musical theatre productions are Broadway quality, and have been nationally recognized at the Thespian Festival in Nebraska, where they also performed. The choral groups are among the best in the state, as well. I would highly recommend this school.
I am a student at Arab High School, and I believe it has to be the best, school I have ever gone to. It has wonderful people, and no one taunts or teases other people. It has wonderful teachers, students, and faculty. They have an excellent band program, as well as excellent sports teams. They also have high expectations and are very good at teaching students life lessons. I believe AHS has taught me valuble life lessons. I reccomend anybody come to it.
I can honestly say that by going to Arab High School that I was better prepared for college than others. The teachers are very good, the material and subject matter is diverse, and for the most part they care about you as an individual and want you to succeed.
The best learning environment I have been a part of. Student to teacher ratio at the Junior high and High school level is oneof the best in the state. Teachers are uniquely qualified in their fields of instruction with a large porportion of Masters Degrees. Counseling is a priority and students receive timely and pertenent feedback on progress, or lack of. Extracirricular activities are complete and while the teams are not state ranked, the community supports them as if they were. A great education experience for all levels.
I am a recent graduate of Arab High School and would recommend the school to anyone. The principal is top notch, and is never less than fair with the students. The assistant principals are good by most standards, but pale beside the principal. The student body is less 'clique-y' than most school systems. Yes, you have 'jocks', and 'preps', and 'nerds', but you have these at any school, and most people got along great with one another. I was in the band program all 4 years, and was rarely insulted by any athletes, and when we were the coaches immediately stopped it. The extracurricular activites are incredible, the band, choir, musical theatre, robotics, math teams, and scholar's bowl teams have all received numerous medals and trophies at contests nationwide. Our lady's basketball team was 2nd in the state 2 years running. I feel any student would love their time at AHS.
I researched this system before moving to Arab. Both of my children graduated from AHS, both of them went on to graduate from UA. My daughter is now a teacher and realizes how fortunate she was to have attended such a great school. Both of my children were well prepared for college work because of the high expectations at Arab and the availability of quality teachers and even dual placement courses. Both of my children participated in extra-curricular activities-as I think all children should. Yes, it is clickish--but no more so than any other small town school. And, yes, athletes get better treatment-from coaches/teachers just like any other school. However, everyone is held to high standards and everyone is offered a quality education.
I am a student at AHS, and this is what I have to say...Arab High School is a great school for all types of students. The teacher's at this school are very helpful and each teacher can relate to each student. They don't only teach your child the best way to excel in their academics, but also about important life lessons(including most manners). The teacher's are just wonderful. The students are great too, there is a very wide verity of students at this school, and most everyone is friendly and helpful. There are hardly any fights or 'BIG ISSUES' at this school. They also offer many different programs like Agriculture, Drafting, Fashion and Interior Design, Band, almost all sports, computer design and web development classes, health care and of course all different levels of excellent academics. This school in my opinion is as close to perfect as it gets.
I have 2 children that have attended Arab City Schools for the past 6 years and I am very pleased with the teachers and staff. I feel my children have been given lots of opportunities they would not have received at other schools in this area. The teachers have been nothing short of excellent in helping when my children have had problems with any academics and I am very appreciative of all their hard work and it shows in their test scores. Keep up the good work!
I have two children in this school system. We came here for the high test scores and the area. Now we realize the tests scores are not everything. This school can be very, very clickish...as many others are. If you like sports or have an accelerated student...this is the place for you. We have some good programs at this school. We also have a great band program...but so many people in this area focus on the sports programs and forget about the band program. The area is nice and laid back.
I have two children in the Arab school system not yet in high school, but my exchange student will be attending school here in the 06-07 school year and I am very excited about Jacqueline attending school here from Germany. Mr. Crowder, Mr. Mullins, Coach Flack, etc. have been very helpful with talking to me about exchange students. The counselors and staff here are above the call of duty and we hope to have a very rewarding year here with our German girl. Thanks to all of you and to Jacqueline's future friends and teachers. have a great summer and enjoy! Also Good Luck to Katerina from Czech Repbulic that will be also attending school here at Arab. Have a great year to all of you.
I am a student at this school and it has a good quality of extra curricular activities. But the teacher and student quality isint that great. If your quiet and not a football player or cheerleader, your not treated as great as the other 'popular students', so if you are not popular, try another school.
Its a great community school and its as close to a private school as you will get and still be private. I now attend the University of Alabama because Arab demanded things from me that I KNOW BMHS would not. Arab has developed great vocational programs that BMHS does not even offer. If you are interested in more opportunities, more competition, better atmosphere, and higher standards- send your child to Arab High School
Arab has excellent academic programs to offer. I love the school, it is clean and a wonderful enviroment for young adults. There are many extracurricular activities to choose from. They help children to get involved. There is much parent involvement also.
I have two children who have attended AHS and have been very impressed with the quality of education that they have received and the variety of learning opportunities that they have been offered. Most of the teachers seem to really care about the students and are open to communicating with parents about their progress. The city school board is made up of concerned individuals who are appointed, not elected, so they have no political agendas to impede their decisions. The schools have very high SAT scores and have ranked high on just about every scorecard that has been used to evaluate them. The Arab City Schools are why we moved to Arab years ago. I am very active in the programs at the school and am very proud to say that my children have attended school here.
This school is not very well equipped to fit my child's learning needs. I recommend sending your child to another school, perhaps Brindlee Mountain. I did, and now my child doesn't have to go to Sylvan Learning Center anymore.
I am a former student of Arab High school (and Arab City Schools)and I would recommend any parent looking for a great school system and city to send their children to Arab.

Restaurants in Santa Monica
I recently moved to Santa Monica (around 10th and Santa Monica Blvd.) Everyone always tells me there are such great restaurants down there, but I haven't been able to fin any! The promenade is terrible, there are a few places on Main...am I missing something??
Welcome to the hood. There certainly is a high concentration of good restaurants in Santa Monica, as well as a wide variety:
Melisse, Akwa, Capo, Giorgio, Valentino, Michaels, One Pico, Boa, The Hump, Chinois, The Lobster, The Ivy, Whist, Buffalo Club, Sushi King, Josie, Sushi Roku, Tengu, Casa del Mar, Ocean and Vine, Ocean Ave Seafood, La Serenata.
Start with those.
The Promenade DOES suck for restaurants, as do Main and Montana.
re: Frank_Santa_Monica
You're kidding right? All three locations: Promenade, Main and Montana have some pretty good places.
Promenade: .
1. The two crepe places are pretty good (one is on Arizona, the other is on Broadway).
2. Houston's is a chain -- but some of their stuff is more than passable.
3. Ye Olde Kings Head -- it is touristy and full of Brits -- but the food is damn good.
4. Gelato place -- across from the movie theaters on Arizona. Not bad.
5. Fred Segal -- very healthy lunch options.
1. Sunday farmer's market.
2. Chinois
3. Chaya Venice
4. Pizza place -- whose name I don't remember
1. Babalu
2. Blue Plate
3. Italian ice place on 13th & Montana. Get the blood orange.
4. Cafe Montana
re: jhulla
double exclamation marks on Musha! the owner is hilarious and the food is awesome! Good luck getting a table on Friday and Saturday nights though.
re: jhulla
Well, Chinois I like and it's on Main. Chaya is in Venice, technically.
There's one crepe place on the Promenade, and I don't think it's all that great. It's open late, which is nice. Kings head is on 2nd and not 3rd. The Gelato place is like buying store gelato-- some company ships it from San Francisco. Fred Segal is on 5th. Houston's is on 2nd.
And on Montana, I go to Father's Office, Cafe Montana all the time, but I think they are very mediocre. Babalu, Blue Plate-- very, very mediocre.
Speaking of Montana, there's some new place opening called "Montana".
re: jhulla
I'd add the 17th Street Cafe to the discussion of restaurants on Montana, good, not great salads and sandwiches. Nice place for a lunch. I seem to remember that they made a pretty good cioppino as well.
re: Frank_Santa_Monica
Um... have we ever been to Main and/or Montana? Both are fabulous scenes for food and drinks.
re: WORX4FUDE
Where's fabulous for food on Main or Montana? Father's Office on Montana and Via Veneto on Main, but where else?
re: SauceSupreme
Definitely stop by now that it's open on the weekends for lunch!
It takes a while to discover the gems in Santa Monica. Here are some recommendations for a local for good local grub.
1. Bay Cities Deli (Broadway & Lincoln): This place will become your goto sandwich place. Go there. Immediately. They bake their bread fresh throughout the day. The sandwiches are delicious. And while you wait for your number to come up, peruse their amazing selection of European groceries. (And you can walk there.)
2. Blue Plate (Montana & 14th): A great lunch/brunch restaurant. Excellent healthy sandwiches, salads.
3. Babalu (Montana & 9th): Excellent fish specials. Americanized Caribbean food. Delish.
4. Cha Cha Cha (Pico & Ocean): Get the jerk chicken enchiladas with the fried plantains on the side.
5. Fritto Misto (Colorado & 6th?): Great neighborhood italian place. Food is good. Staff is friendly.
6. Ye Olde Kings Head (Santa Monica & Ocean): This touristy British Pub actually serves some damn good food.
7. Sunday Farmers Market (Main & Ocean Park): Grab yourself a plate of eggs or pancakes and some fresh squeezed oj and sit down in the grass along with a hundred other people. Sundays only.
Start with those.
You can then work up to Melisse, Josie's, Locanda Portofino, Jiraffe, etc.
Oh yeah -- almost forgot where I had dinner this evening.
The Counter (29th & Ocean Park): It is a burger joint. But man are they good. You get to order it exactly the way you want (you get a clipboard with a multiplechoice menu). Tonight I added mixed baby greens, spicy peppercinis, black bean and corn salsa and an apricot dressing.
re: jhulla
The Counter is DELICIOUS. SO far that's the best burger in LA for me!
re: bite bite
I'd add Sam's by the Beach on West Channel Road.
Although we live in NY, whenever my husband is in Santa Monica, I tag along because I love it there.
During our last stay, we had a terrific breakfast at a small, outdoor spot almost right net door to the Le Merigot hotel. Does anyone know the name? It is escaping me right now. It was wonderful and delicious!
Tacos Por Favor for authentic Mexican on 14th and Olympic. Head to the Sawtelle area for Many good asian places.
I wouldn't recommend Blue Plate, personally - but of the Montana Ave lists offered, one is left off: Le Marmiton. It's fantastic.
I would add Cafe Delfini, Via Veneto, Locanda Portofino, Brass Cap, Coras...
You won't find anything on the Promenade.
I really enjoy Border Grill on 4th between Broadway and Santa Monica for brunch and for happy hour. Decent specials for happy hour at Ocean Avenue as well.
I used to work in Santa Monica and the places I miss the most are:
Bay Cities Italian Deli (can someone PLEASE messenger me a godmother and a pastrami)
Jack n Jill's
Promenade Area:
Fritto Misto, Border Grille for Happy Hour (I've never been impressed with the dinners unless you are prepared to shell out at least $30 a plate), Ocean Ave Seafood (good for lunch, dinner, and happy hour), Jiraffe, Jinky's for lunch, Father's Office for beer and burger.
Main Street / Abbot Kinney: Library Alehouse, Omelette Parlor for brunch, Joe's (best deals at lunch and brunch), Lilly's French Cafe
Pico Corridor: Lares, Gilbert's El Indio

Jack 'n' Jills on Santa Monica Blvd. between 5th and 6th for great sandwichs and salads (try the blackened chicken wrap)
re: umeakai
The best recommendations for eats I've seen thus far are bay cities deli, and Lare's on Pico and 30th for the best Mexican in SM. I would also recommend Cha Cha Chicken for a lunch spot on pico and ocean, will second the burger and beer selection of father's office and think that Nagao on 26th and San Vicente (technically brentwood) is a solid sushi joint at reasonable prices which won't break the bank and has interesting rolls.
Man, no love for The Galley here? Solid, if not adventurous food and a great atmosphere. Frito Misto for casual Italian. Locanda Portofino is good for more formal Italian without busting the budget like Capo or Drago. (Granted, if I could afford either of those two regularly I'd go to either over Portofino.) Are we all too high falutin' for a Kalua Pig bowl at Wahoo's?
And there is no greater pleasure in life than a loaf of bread from Bay Cities within minutes of it coming out of the oven. Whenever the timing works out for me, life just seems so good.
You don't say what you're looking for. High end? Adventurous? Haut Cuisine? Cheap Eats? It's pretty hard to answer.
The Galley is a lot of fun - in the same vein is Chez Jay on Ocean across from the Loew's. Both are kinda funky retro but with good food done well. Think STEAKS and seafood.
You might also try Warszawa on Lincoln - Polish cuisine, some really knock-out appetizers and pierogi! They have a happy hour in their backyard patio - I haven't tried it, but it seems like a good opportunity to get a drink (check out their martinis with polish vodka) and check out some smaller menu items without spending a lot.
I just ate lunch at Jinky's again this week. Updated Coffee-shop casual. Good salad with a nice grilled chicken breast, you could tell everything was fresh. Jinky's is on Second between B'way and Santa Monica, I think.
Cha Cha Chicken on PIco at Ocean is a hidden gem. Sit outside in the sunny enclosed patio and relax. Good caribbean chicken, and deliciouus agua frescas. Some people like Texate on Pico for Oaxacan food - I have had 2 good lunches there, but haven't been recently.
For those who like organic food, the Urth Cafe on Main is popular.
Border Grill is always good - a little noisy and touristy, but the quality of the food is always good. La Sereneta across the street is another good one to try - you can compare the 2, as they're both known for quality Mexican cuisine.
If your budget is a little higher, try Michaels, The Lobster, or try Ocean Ave. Seafood. Or go to Giorgio Baldi on West Channel. Excellent, expensive, maybe you'll see some stars (we saw Larry David at The Lobster).
Cora's Coffee Shoppe is good, but it's so small you have to wait for a table at lunchtime - go a little off-schedule and you can get seated quicker. They have great soups - a good bargain for a quality lunch.
Promenade in general has a lot of chains and, IMHO dull places, but there are a few good places. I like Falafel King, myself, way back in one of the food courts. I also like the kebab place in Santa Monica Place - they make some good Persian stews that are perfect for lunch when you're on jury duty.
Bay Cities Deli on Lincoln is awesome! Email in your order so you don't have to wait!
2 places I've heard good things about that I haven't been to myself are Rustic Canyon and The Nook.
And check out Tacos Por Favor on Olympic.
re: gsw
All great suggestions, thank you!
I am of course already a lover of Bay Cities, Cha Cha Cha, and Father's office. Want to try Cora's and Warsawza.
A couple of higher end places I've tried that just fell short have been:
Le Botte
Border Grille always looked like a chain tourist-trap, but I think now I'll give it a try!
Thanks again!
re: aviweiz
What about RUSTIC CANYON on Wilshire in Santa Monica? Well prepared food, interesting beer, etc. It is noisy though.
When I find myself in SM around lunchtime, I usually head for Le Petit Cafe, 2842 Colorado. A little pricier than my usual $10-15 lunch, especially if I indulge and have a glass of wine, but it's really pleasant and the food's French with a California accent. Parking is a PITA - I always park across the street and walk at least a block, but that just helps the appetite...

Photos and Description of this 3 bedroom holiday home in Warmia-Masuria, Ermeland & Podlaskie - The Lake House Sajzy
Beautiful comfy and cozy lakeside cottage in the village of Sajzy near Elk.
Charming, all year round lakeside cottage in the village of Sajzy near Elk, North East Poland.
This lovely wooden house is a perfect base to explore the stunning region of Masuria, or if you just want to relax and light the BBQ and enjoy the peace and tranquilty it's also excellent.
There are games and toys for the kids and you can light the wood burning stove on any chilly days, but the house has radiators too.
The large private garden has a sandpit, BBQ, fire pit and picnic table.
The lake is right on your doorstep for refreshing swims or why not take the boat available for free and really explore.
The house sleeps 6 adults in beds that can be doubles or twins on request, there is also a camp bed which is downstairs, as well as a cot, the stairs have stairgates at the top and bottom, so the house is ideal for those with families.
Getting Here:: Both Warsaw and Kaunas are served by low-cost airlines.
But you might also consider Gdansk and explore that lovely city for a few days and then drive down to Masuria
There is a direct minibus link from Warsaw Okecie Airport and Warsaw Modlin to Elk 3 times a day and cars can be rented in Elk too.
If you are flying in, we recommend Kaunas, it is the same distance but the roads are better and there is less traffiic, Kaunas is a beautiful city well worth a visit, as is Vilnius.
If you fly into the Lithuanian capital you musn't miss Trakai castle on the way out, it's a must see.
- Suitability:
- Long-term Renters Welcome
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets not allowed
- wheelchair inaccessible
Why Sarah Wiechec-Bird chose Warmia-Masuria, Ermeland & Podlaskie
My husband and I fell in love with the village of Sajzy the moment we cycled through it in and decided to build our little wooden house there. It took 3 years altogether to finish it and we hope you love the results. A house that fits in with it's surroundings and a place to relax and enjoy the forest and the lake.
Guestbook comments from the owner
It's wonderful that in Poland there is such a marvelous place as Sajzy.
The house welcomed us with cascading flowers while inside everything was cosy, practical, and very clean, we were able to take a break from the pace of this world.
Throughly relaxed and revived we return ( reluctantly ) to Warsaw.
With heartfelt thanks.

(Updates with comments by analyst in third and last paragraphs, Bank of Italy in fourth, markets in fifth. For more on Europe's debt crisis, see {EXT4 <GO>}.)
Feb. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Italy sold 12 billion euros ($15.9 billion) of Treasury bills today, meeting its target for the auction, and borrowing costs fell to the lowest since June from the previous sale.
The Rome-based Treasury sold 8.5 billion euros of 365-day bills at 2.230 percent, the lowest since June 10 and down from 2.735 percent at the last auction of similar-maturity securities on Jan. 12. Investors bid for 1.09 times the amount offered, down from 1.47 times last month. The Treasury also sold 3.5 billion euros of 127-day bills at a rate of 1.546 percent, down from 1.644 percent last time.
While "in pricing terms, Italy has turned a corner," the country "is starting to become a victim of its own success," Nicholas Spiro, managing of Spiro Sovereign Strategy in London, said in an e-mail. "The dramatic fall in yields over the past several weeks has driven down borrowing costs to levels where demand is ebbing. Today's auction is an illustration of this."
The Bank of Italy said a technical problem delayed its reception of purchase requests and may have affected the bid-to- cover ratio on the 1-year bill sale, "which wasn't particularly brilliant," according to an e-mailed statement from the Rome- based central bank.
ECB Assistance
Italy, which needs to sell about 450 billion euros of debt this year, has benefited from the European Central Bank's efforts to fight the sovereign debt crisis by shoring up banks and propping up demand for government bonds. The Frankfurt-based institute loaned euro-region banks a record 489 billion euros for three years on Dec. 21 to avert a credit crunch and has been purchasing Italian bonds since August.
The auction comes after Greek lawmakers approved spending cuts demanded by European finance chiefs, giving the indebted nation the chance of a financial lifeline and reducing investor demand for the safest assets. Italian 10-year bonds advanced, with the yield at 5.53 percent at 11:54 a.m. Rome time, which is seven basis points lower than on Feb. 10 and compares with a euro-era high of 7.55 percent on Nov. 29.
Mario Monti, the unelected premier who took over after Silvio Berlusconi's resignation in November, pushed through 20 billion euros in spending cuts and tax increases in December while reducing red tape that he blames for Italy's stagnant economy. Italian gross domestic product expanded at an annual average of 0.4 percent in the decade through 2010, compared with 1.2 percent in the euro area.
Weakening Economy
Italy's government projects GDP to fall 0.5 percent this year while the International Monetary Fund forecasts a contraction of 2.2 percent. Bank of Italy Director General Fabrizio Saccomanni told reporters in Rome last week that he expects the economy to shrink as much as 1.5 percent in 2012.
"As yields find a floor after several weeks of sharp declines, more attention will be paid to Italy's economic fundamentals which are deteriorating markedly," Spiro said. "Right now, the market is unsure about the fair value of Italian sovereign risk."

How To Install Penny Tile (And Lots Of It)
We did it. We tiled the entire back wall of our kitchen in a counter-to-ceiling backsplash move that we like to call Project Crazy, and we lived to tell the tale. We still have to grout, add a big ol' industrial range hood and chunky open shelves (those will just be screwed right through the tile with a special drill bit) but when we squint we can almost picture it…
As for the top seam where the tile meets the ceiling, there's crown molding that runs around the entire room (although we removed some of it on the window wall) so we'll be adding that back around the whole room so the top of the tile will look nice and finished once we get to that step.
The black box next to the range hood is an outlet for our range hood, so that'll be hidden once we install ours. We tiled a few inches behind the range hood duct, but didn't remove it since once we install our industrial hood that area won't be visible.
Once we add our floating shelves (which will be 12″ deep) along the oven wall, the space on either side of the window will be 14″ – so it'll finally look balanced again! I mention this in every kitchen post because I. Can't. Wait. For. That. Moment.
This entire backsplash process took us around 14 hours total. We tackled it mostly in 2-3 hour chunks in the evening after Clara went to bed or on weekends while she napped (so it's a good indication of what anyone with a day job might be able to follow). That includes a few hours of figuring out how to cut the tile, which we summarized in this video for you (read a lot more on that process here).
We also shared an in-progress post about prepping the room for tiling, mixing and spreading thinset, and placing the penny tiles here. So that might come in handy if you're at that stage of the project and could use some reassuring.
It's really important to place penny tiles in a way that makes the line where each sheet meets less obvious, so we found that a staggered pattern was the best method for us to achieve a seamless result:
That way your eye doesn't catch one seam and follow it all the way across the room (more on that here). We also played around with each sheet of tile after squishing them into the thinset, scooching them a bit to the left or the right or higher (since they were on a sheet of mesh it was pretty easy to manipulate them) until they looked evenly placed so the seams weren't obvious.
Just wanted to recap that stuff for a second so anyone looking for an exhaustive post about installing penny tile would have those pics and links all in one place. Anyway, when we last left you, we were just beginning the back wall, which we knew would be tedious (but hoped wouldn't make us rue the day that we picked penny tile). The good news: it didn't. We made it all the way across that wall, baby! Without wanting to poke our eyes out with penny tile once (well, maybe once…).
Thankfully, there weren't many cuts since we could slap a ton of full sheets up in that giant expanse of wall, so although we took our time placing them to keep seams from showing up, we did move faster than having to cut a bunch of tiles. It probably took us three days of 2-3 hour sessions each time. We found it helpful to use little glass dishes to divide full tiles, half tiles, more than half tiles, and less than half tiles. That way if we needed to quickly back-fill an area, like the edge of the wall, with half-tiles or slivers or almost full tiles we already had a little dish of them separated out that we could dig into quickly.
Here's a video about spreading the thinset and placing the tiles, complete with how to back-fill any tiles that you need to add and how we slid them around and adjusted them to look more seamless. Oh and in the video when I describe it as a brick-layers pattern, I create a horizontal one with my hands, but it's really a vertical one (two tiles on top of each other and one staggered in the middle of that next to it). Oops. Hope that makes sense when you see it!
And here are some pics of us making our way across the wall. John applied the thinset with a putty knife (and sometimes a trowel). We mixed enough thinset to set about four to six tiles at a time (so it didn't dry out before we could set the tile). You can see John applying the thinset in the video above.
Then John scraped it with his trowel to make little ridges to help the thinset grab the tile and stick for good. Our trowel was a 3/16th notched trowel since penny tile is small, so we heard that smaller ridges were recommended (you can also see this in the video above).
Here I am placing the top tile on the left side of the wall. John got a kick out of the fact that I could comfortably stand on the counter without having to crouch (oh the perks of Team 5'2″). You can see how we worked from the bottom left corner and went up and out to create a staggered staircase effect. This allowed us to build things slowly without having much of a problem with keeping things level since each tile interlocked down the staircase on two ends to keep it from skewing.
Day by day, we inched our way across…
Here we are in the very last corner, finishing things up. You can see that we scooted the oven out while we were working (to gain more access to the wall and keep from getting thinset on it).
Since a few of you have asked for a shot of the corner to see how the tile meets, here ya go:
Let's get a little closer…
Basically whatever would be placed next to the last tile on the wall where the wall ends just wraps around and gets placed on the new wall. It's not 100% perfect but once it's caulked/grouted we think it'll look pretty darn good (we'll snap another pic for you then).
Oh and some other folks asked how we'd be "capping" the 14″ of tile that will be exposed on each side of the window wall, so here's a detail shot for ya:
We actually got some thin glass tiles that we thought we'd like, but they just looked too brown and sort of competed with the penny tile, so we decided some thin thin thin pieces of craft wood will make great simple and clean little borders that don't compete for attention. They're not hammered in completely yet, since we'll be pulling them out and painting them white like the rest of the trim in the room after grouting (just to avoid getting paint on the grout).
Grellow note: the picture above is probably the most true to life shot of our wall color (in some of the far shots it looks darker/greener/brighter than it is). In real life it's a soft avocado color (although it can read quite differently on different computer monitors). Here's a link to it on BM's site if that helps, since the bad lighting in our kitchen hardly does it any favors. We think once we tackle the new lighting and add the open shelving and some pretty colorful accessories up there (and on the counter) it'll all tie together really sweetly. You know we'll share those pics as we go!
Obviously we still have to spread all that grout, but we're giving our arms a day of rest before picking up the trowel again (well, I guess in this case it'll be the grout float). As for the specifics, we picked a soft creamy-gray grout that's a smidge lighter than the tile. You can see it in this sample shot snapped at the store back when we chose our tile (more on that here):
Oh and see how you can kind of see the seam in the picture above (there's a horizontal line of grout in the middle of the photo that seems a bit thicker/bolder). That's why scooching things around and stepping back to see how it all looks before moving onto the next tile is so important! We were sticklers about it, but we're so glad we took the time to keep everything as evenly placed as possible.
Now we just need to grout, get new lighting (and kill that haven't-used-it-in-13-months fan), add crown molding and some sort of decorative treatment and baseboard to the back of the peninsula, lay our cork floors, install our new dishwasher, and add shoe molding around the room. And probably some other stuff that our tile-drunk minds are forgetting. So we'll be back with grouting progress in the next few days or so- probably on Wednesday. We're hoping we can knock it out pretty quickly, but you never know until you're knee deep in grout… we'll keep you posted!
What did you guys do this weekend? Do you all have off today in honor of MLK?

the tile looks great! can't wait to see the floating shelves, and cork floors, and all the rest. Just wondering, though, are you guys completely sold on the yellow/green paint color in the rest of the kitchen? Maybe it's just hard for me to see the big picture while it's still in progress..
I cannot believe how great your kitchen is coming along! I need to send you guys pics of our kitchen…wood panels chipping away, gross stained tile grout counters, 30 yr. old appliances…need I go on?! yuck!! haha…my friend is trying to convince me to paint our cabinets, she even offered to help!…and I just might do so, looking at your cabinets! Love the progress!
Louise Edu
LOVE the texture this adds!! Looks fantastic!
Looks great!! Can't wait to see the finished product. I spent the weekend demolishing my mom's bathroom with a few siblings. Needless to say, I am better at destruction than construction thus far. And, as I kind of anticipated (but didn't want to believe) the project is going to take twice as long and cost twice as much. It already looks better in it's tile and spongepaint-less state than it did before. Took your advice on the deglosser…that stuff is no joke, but totally necessary for bathroom cabinets with years and layers worth of hairspray-funk!
The tile looks fantastic!!!
Now, onto something completely off-topic…What do you think about this chromatic typewriter? Sherry, I know you have an art background. I'd love to know what you think! Thanks.
Me too!!! Some other art teachers I know who are painters are not sure what to think of it, but I think it's such a neat concept.
My fiance and I installed a new kitchen faucet and we LOVE it. The old one was small, chrome, outdated, and corroded and the new one is large and in charge, ORB, and includes a sprayer (which I love for washing dishes!). Fiance also installed a curtain rod in the family room but now we're struggling to find curtains to go with our new gray couches.
Anyway, yay for productive weekends!
I envy your bravery! You just go for it, and it looks fabulous. I paralyze my creative side out of fear…especially with big projects. You guys give me inspiration and hope!
I wanted to know what the shelves are called that were above your dinning table in your first house. I know they are from Ikea, but would love to get the name of them. Thanks!
Holy cow it looks awesome!
Looking great! Be sure you tell us: which is worse, grouting or thinset?
It looks so beautiful. Really awesome.
I was thinking I would've gone with a brighter color for the tile, but seeing it actually done, I think the color of the penny tiles is perfect.
Will you be weirded out if there's a rise in grellow-kitchens with gray tiles across the country?
It looks amazing!! Can't wait to see those shelves put up on the wall :)
Woo hoo! A big round of applause for you guys!
It looks great!! At 18 I worked for a summer installing tile with my uncles best friend. I was so glad to learn those skills and I applaud you for your incredible attention to detail and professional results!! :)
I love how it turned out! Nicely done.
By the way, I love how your cabinets turned out. I'll be revisiting your post about painting them. I'm disappointed with how our painted cabinets turned out and would like to eventually re-paint them. :P Sadly we hired someone to paint them for us, so it seems like a waste. Nothing like doing it yourself.
it looks amazing! cant wait to see the rest! thanks for always sharing everything including how tos:)
Looks great! Quick everyone take a drink everytime John/Sherry say penny tile! ahh college memories…….
Looks awesome! The link to the post about picking out the tile doesn't work for me. Where can I find it?
Oh my gosh you two! This looks soo beautiful and I have this incredible craving to rub my hands all over it. Extra-nicey! :)
wasn't sure that I liked the tile at first, but now that it's on the wall it looks FAB!
this weekend at our house we started a banquet bench for in our dining nook of the kitchen. we are constructing it out of old pews to honor the fact that our house was once a church!
This most definitely calls for the Elaine from Seinfeld dance. I would have fist pumped (gently and limply) through the house in celebration of tile completion. And im also loving the "avocado" walls now.
I love the way it turned out, but it definitely looks like quite the ambitious project. I can't wait to have my own house so I can try out some of these cool projects too!
I think I might be marveling more at the fact that you have painted nails in some of the pics. I'm not sure why that baffles me so much..
my favorite thing about YHL is the fact that you repeatedly mention how long you've been in your house. it's so comforting to be reminded that you've been there for OVER A YEAR and are just starting to add finishing touches to your kitchen. my fiance and i are just starting to plan to buy our first house in LA, and since we're on a budget, our property options are really, uh, rough. it's nice to be reminded that once we blow half a million on a house, there shouldn't be a lot of pressure to re-do the place in 2 months. and also: you're making me lust after penny tile.
It looks beautiful, guys!!
One question- do you think you will regret not taking down the paneling? The whole aesthetic is so clean and contemporary now….will the paneling feel like a throwback? Just curious…I know you specifically chose to keep it. Any regrets now that it's all coming together?
Are you planning on sticking with a stainless steel hood vent? I guess I would be worried about all the grey on grey.
Oh, and I'm in the middle of a master-bedroom redecoration. Bought new curtains yesterday…on clearance even! Woot. I also saw a white ceramic moose (I live in Alaska) and thought of you. :)
Eek! It's so, so beautiful!
We spent the weekend putting together (and hacking) Ikea pieces:
On a random note, you mentioned the crown molding you took down. We're working on that for our studio, and my GOODNESS it's so much harder than we thought! I searched your archives, but do you have an easy to follow tutorial on how you do it/make your cuts?
Have you guys ever done crown molding? I remember at your last house you hired someone to do it all for you. My cousin did mine and a miter box is definitely not the way to go since my corners were not 45 deg. as you would hope. The miter box only allows a few angles while a miter saw lets you cut much more precise cuts.
I remember that John got you a tea kettle for a gift a year or two ago and it was blue. I'm loving your new white one in the pics above since it is exactly what I'm looking for (the ones I keep finding have black handles and I want silver) – do you know what brand it is or where you got it?
Never mind – I just read further in the comments and saw that it was on clearance at TJMaxx. :)
It looks fantastic! Great job guys – I really can't wait to see the rest of the finishing touches.
We went to Lowe's for some paint testers for our master bedroom this weekend. Colour matched BM's Marine Blue and Behr's Observatory to Valspar paint (testers were on sale for $0.98!!!) and now we have to pick. DH likes the Observatory and I like Marine Blue so it might be a death match. Oh, and a great tip the lady at Lowe's gave me – instead of painting the testers on foam board, we bought a 2×2 section of drywall. That way when we are done, we can prime over and reuse it. She said she has used the same piece of drywall for 10 years doing it that way.
I wish I had today off – no Martin Luther King day here in Canada – it's -35 Celsius here with wind chill!
I love the tile. It looks great. And it goes so nice with the white cabinets and new appliances…but I have to say I really dont care much for the wall color now. I thought it might work when you showed your ideas early on, but the tile just doesn't work with the paint color for me. It's just my opinion and I think you guys did a great job all together. As long as you love it, that's all that matters.
I do have a question, looking at it all together now, do you still think that is the #1 very best paint color…or have you wondered if going with another color would be better?
I love the look. Are you guys going to put the tile backsplash to the right of the fridge? if not, are you planning anything else to go there?
I've peeled my eyes away from your delicious tile long enough for some random girlie fashion chit chat. What kind of nail polish are you wearing in these pictures? I'm in love with those deep brown-black shades. I wear Revlon's "hot for chocolate" but it starts chipping off (badly) about 10 minutes after I put it on. I've been on a mission to find a more durable, low maintenance version of the same color that won't give me buyer's remorse.
Also, I'm glad I'm not there because I'd totally embarrass myself with all the pat, pat, patting.
John and Sherry! Gah, your work is so beautiful!!! I am so thankful for your tutorials too, they really are awesome and thorough. Great job, your kitchen is going to be an amazingly decadent space!!!
It looks amazing!! Oh my goodness, I love it. Is it so wrong to wrap a master bedroom in penny tile? Heck, why not a dining room feature wall? Lol, just kidding! I can't wait to see how the kitchen turns out, it will definitely be magazine worthy!
And on a total side note – where is your white kettle from? Please don't say Target, Canadians won't be seeing Targets pop up until 2013.
Looks awesome guys!! Way to go! I hope it comes out exactly as you pictured!!
Looks AMAZING! :)
Aw, man. This is really coming together now guys – looks absolutely amazing. You have fantastic vision… It's hard to believe it's the same kitchen as when you first started! Am getting super excited to see the finished result! :-)
Looks great!
I'm curious if you decided on an industrial type hood because you like the look? I like the look but they're so dang expensive and I rarely even use a hood so I feel like the only sensible thing for me is to do a hood/micro. Boring but cheap and space-saving.
Cool, thanks! The Arietta's on hd's site seem to start at $370 now. I need that space for a microwave anyway, though.
Just figured it out that my monitor is way off on showing a truthful colour. I was sitting here with my BM paint swatches and using their on-line samples and wow, big difference! Funny too that the main colour I was leaning towards turn out to be the same as yours — sesame! I love love love that colour!!! Gray, green, dark chocolate and white are all my favorite colours so of course, I love all the colours in your house:) Thanks for the inspiration!!!
it looks so great! you two are a wee bit crazy [or perhaps just a wee bit more crazy haha] for doing it all by yourself, but gosh it looks amazing!
You brave souls. It looks fantastic! You guys are an awesome team.
You did such a great job on that tile! My arms ache just reading about it!!!
You guys! It looks so good and I can only imagine it will look even better with the finishing touches! Tiling is one of those jobs that seems a little intimidating, but you make it seem like something I really could do!
Oh boy! What a project with those penny tiles! You did a beautiful job! A question…..I may have missed it, but will you be putting in new overhead lighting? (please say yes (:)
Has anyone mentioned that the penny tile looks like the background on your webstite on the sides here?
I spy a new Clara monthly photo but no new photoshoot post….soon?
Not like you're busy with other stuff or anything ;)
It's going to look amazing when it's all done! We are thinking about penny tile for our bathroom, so this gives us a good idea of what might be involved! BTW, I have started sharing your blog with my husband to show him how to do different projects and now for EVERY project he is asking if your blog has the answer he is looking for. Pretty soon he's going to be reading it every day, right along with me!
We are currently prepping our oak cabinets for painting and spent the weekend sanding and deglossing. We couldn't find the deglosser brand you recommended (we live in Alaska and we can't always find everything you guys have down there), so we tried a different low VOC product. Some of our cabinets have TONS of grease (from the previous owner of 20 years apparently NEVER wiping her cabinets — yikes!) and the deglosser definitely helped, but didn't get everything up. So, we are going to have to go over some of them again, either with a different deglosser, or a stronger concentration. :( I just want to start priming and painting, but I know how important it is to prep the surface so the paint will stick (thanks in part to you guys and your thorough posts on your own experience with cabinet painting).
The wall looks great!!! However since I'm a huge tea drinker, I can't lie – my eyes went to that new kettle right away! Did you switch from the blue one to white because of the new color scheme?
The tile looks awesome!! I can't imagine the patience it took. Well done!
This looks great! The penny tile photographs cream in the close-up shots but a muted grey in the full room shots. I know cameras can do tricky things with color so what shade is this in person?
