HybridizationingsMix-ins, Notions, and Plugins of our Lives

I love HGTV for reminding me how fun day dreaming is. Each year when they come out with their Dream Home, I think about what it would be like to live there, the surrounding area, etc. To date, my favorite was the North Carolina house, but the 2010 home could be even greater. For starters each year Michael and I look at the house and determine what room we could change into the theater room, because it isn’t a dream home for Michael unless it has a theater room. Number 2: it has a Casita with its own bathroom. Number 3: there will be a recycling room which in itself isn’t all that glamorous but just that they are thinking about recycling in their grand design, I wouldn’t be surprised if they incorporate more renewable and recylced additions to the house. I’ll stop there because I want to keep some of the mystery. Here is the floor plan.

1. Three-car garage
2. Motor court
3. Casita with bathroom
4. Recycling room
5. Back patio
6. Kitchen and great room
7. Walk-through pantry
8. Dining room
9. Home office with bathroom
10. Entry hall and foyer
11. His-and-hers walk-in master closet 12. Master bathroom
13. Master suite
14. Sunrise room
15. Home theater
16. Laundry room
17. Second bedroom with walk-in closet and adjoining bathroom
18. Third bedroom with walk-in closet and adjoining bathroom

(So you are welcome to dream and drool, but when the time comes, THIS WILL BE MY HOUSE.)
