Reply to concrete shower pan with corner bench -- but forgot to build bench. what to do? by jaaassshhh

Don’t do it. Build the shower without a bench. They aren’t practical for people with different heights, different injuries or disabilities (broken leg, bad knee) and are a head-cracking hazard in a fall.

Buy benches in teak for looks - or benches of other materials that are adjustable.

Reply to My Rival crock pot 3150. 50-ish years old and still cooking family dinners without a hitch by RooshunVodka

I have the same CrockPot. I use this one for home but only take the newer pretty one to potlucks.

This one cooks some recipes better than the oval ones, which are larger.

Reply to My mom’s 1982 GE toaster. Same age as me. Used every day. by TummyPuppy

Golden Wheat dinnerware (Homer Laughlin Co.) would look lovely with your toaster and the granite. DUZ detergent put a piece in each box in the late 1950s, I think. I prefer it to Lennox’s wheat pattern but will tout Lennox’s other patterns and its sturdy stainless flatware.
