I just sent you an email. I looked at your want list and did not see any there, I do notice you want peonies. You have reached the right person. Send me an email and I can send pictures of which ones I am diving. flowersbytheriver2@comcast.net This post was edited by illinoisdoglover on Fri, Jun 14, 13 at 22:29

Take a jaunt over to the kitchen forum and find the thread on different quartzites. (there is a geologist who participated on that thread), or simply put your rocks up on the kitchen forum and get their take. I am sure, if the geologist is still on the forum, she'll help you out. She also tells you a test you can do (with a glass bottle) to figure out if it is a marble or a granite.

Thanks! Babs, it definitely will NOT be the backsplash that is shown in the picture! We are building our home and we won't be moving until May. We want to see the kitchen put together before finalizing a backsplash so it probably won't be until summer. We are leaning towards ceramic tiles like the one in the photo but in white with stainless steel accent tiles. Our cabinets are cherry and our appliances are stainless.

I'm Casey here and there, but you probably already knew that. I don't know how I manage to get fast times, I just do! LOL Some tips that seem to help me: -scroll wheel on mouse -read quickly! LOL -you don't have to click in the little circle to pick your answer, clicking on the sentence is fine -if you don't know the answer don't spend time trying to figure it out. Just pick the first answer and often that's the correct one (but not always) Oh, and we also have the fastest internet available in our area. Later this month we are getting Fibre Op and it's supposed to be even faster. We will see.
