Back from the treat dispensers'. Dog & cat ate non-stop, while I was at the dentist. We were all well-fed & are now in need of a diet.

Do you know there are many songs all about Saturday?
Lonely ballads, songs of romance & some doo wop along the way,
One More Saturday Night, is a tune by The Grateful Dead,
The Carpenters sang a song called Saturday, but it wasn’t a hit widespread,
One of Chicago’s biggest hits was Saturday in the Park,
& Elton John said Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting probably after dark,
Cat Stevens once had nobody on Another Saturday Night,
& King Crimson had a Book of Saturday, another tune about plight,
David Bowie’s Drive-In Saturday was on the album Aladdin Sane,
& Same Old Saturday Night by’ ole blue eyes’ goes well with champagne,
Louisiana Saturday Night by Alabama is schmaltzy & kinda twangy,
& Saturday Night by the Bay City Rollers may be bound to drive you rangy,
Someday I’ll Be Saturday Night contains wailing by Jon Bon Jovi,
& Almost Saturday Night by John Fogerty, is sung in the key of D,
On Saturday Afternoons in 1963 is by the lovely Rickie Lee Jones,
& Tom Wait’s Heart of Saturday Night sure has melodic tones,
I’m sure there are many Saturday songs that I’ve omitted from my prose,
So at this time, I shall conclude & bring these queries to a close.

Posting some pics for an SC friend who had some questions about the tiling. She bought the same type of mixed glass marble tiles as i did.

The first is my stove area backsplash, Holly I used a straight edge to make a line behind the stove and cut the tiles flush and ran them up behind the stove fan. I didn't bother to cut them behind the fan as they will not be seen. The accent line is a little trickier because to have a contnuous line of tile i put four of them together then I cut 4 rows by 4 tiles which gave me about 4 feet of continuous. 4 tiles of 4 feet gave me 12 feet of continuous tile. Around the window was a little trickier as I have uneven width on either side so i have 6 wide on one side and 5 on the left. I butted the white tiles right to the granite countertop and just did a thin grout line at the bottom. Under the cabinets th cuts are all uneven due to them not being squared so I have quarter round moulding which i have yet to install but will this week. You wont be able to see any gaps. You absolutely need a wet saw to cut these properly and a strong grip to hold onto them when you cut otherwise they will shatter. let me know if you have any questions.

When I put the quarter rounds under the cabinets I'll post other pics. I also have most of the upper cabinets doors on now too , I haven't been able to paint this week at all because it's too windy and cold and I am painting them outside in the driveway.

Thanks for posting, you did an absolute amazing job. You have convinced me that I can do it. It may take me a while, but I will go ahead and give it a try. I got enough tile to do the entire backsplash so I won't need to but it to another type of tile, butt I will have 2 side ends that will be open, not sure what I will do about it, will have to check around the Internet. My friend has a tile cutting saw, so I'll borrow it from him. Not sure what kind of saw blade he has though, but I could buy one of those if I need too, I saved on my tiles so I guess I could buy a blade, lol! Your kitchen looks gorgeous , you should be so very proud of yourself. Job very well done.
