Glickman looked behind the house instead. He wrapped a paved walkway from the driveway and garage to a nostep, flat-threshold sunroom doorway. A slight pitch at the entry channels rainwater into a linear drain, obviating the need for deep eaves that would block light. The sunroom forms one end of a broad, L-shaped open space that bends around a bedroom and bathroom to fill most of the main floor. Glickman removed two interior walls by the central staircase and hall to unlock this open plan. Taking out one of the interior walls eliminated the hall — which represents an accessibility adaptation in itself — and merged the hall space into the living room, for a gain of 4 feet in room width. Taking out the stair wall enhanced the airy and open kitchen/eating space that occupies the old kitchen and dining room area. Interior designer Pari Darvish specified the sleek stainless-steel and cable custom handrails that flank the stairs.

Lee Reich | In the Garden
Tea time in the garden might be spot on
I
T’S TEA TIME IN THE garden. This tea’s for the garden, though, not for you. Yes, your plants might benefit from a spot of tea. Let’s begin with a general tonic. Mmmm... manure tea. Compost tea might serve as well. Make either of these teas with a giant tea bag: a burlap sack filled with compost or manure. Tie the bag shut with a length of string, then drop it into a bucket or barrel of water to steep for a day or two. By then the water should have darkened to what else but tea brown. If the tea looks too strong — that is, it’s too dark — dilute it before use. Just about any of your plants might like this brew poured about their roots periodically. For a quicker pick me up — just the thing for a plant that looks piqued — spray the tea right on the leaves. What this tea actually offers your plants is a whole range of nutrients as well as some natural hormones and other growth factors.
An equally valuable tea, according to some gardeners, can be brewed from stinging nettles. Nettles generally grow wild in rich, sunny soils. Find a patch and, with gloved hands or else you’ll get stung, cut a pile of stems and then cover them in a bucket with water. Let this mix sit for a few days, during which time it’s going to ferment and begin to look and smell rank. No matter, though; this tea isn’t for you. Plants allegedly love it. So much for general tonics. Some garden teas are brewed up for more specific effect. Diseases threatening? Nothing like a spritzer of horsetail tea to keep diseases at bay. Just boil an ounce and a half of this wild plant in a gallon of water, strain, cool, and spray. Or make a tea from chive leaves. This tea is reputedly effective against all sorts of mildews because — so the reasoning goes — chives itself is not prone to these diseases. Shaky reasoning, if you ask me. Horsetail is high is silica, which has been shown to protect plants
against diseases, so there’s more reason to believe that this tea could actually do something for a plant. Insects threatening? Gardeners have come up with all sorts of brews to put on plant leaves to ward off winged and crawling attackers. There’s the general brew decocted from garlic, hot pepper, mustard, mint, and anything else you can think of that either smells or tastes very strong. Who knows? Maybe this tea does work. Tomato leaf tea reputedly confuses aphids’ sense of taste, but I think a strong spray of plain water is an easier way to get rid of this pest. One tea that definitely does work against insects, by killing them, is that made from tobacco. An old English gardening book suggests brewing your own from cigarette butts, but you could just buy the stuff, sold commercially as Black Leaf 40. Think twice before you start mixing up or spraying this stuff, though, because it is poisonous to you and much
of the animal world. For that matter, most of the teas that you would give your plants are not ones that you should be drinking. Most either taste bad or are somewhat toxic to people, so don’t leave unused portions lying around either. There is one tea that you could enjoy with your plants, and that is chamomile tea. How soothing it is to sit
in the garden and sip a cup of this golden brew. For the plants, chamomile tea might do more than just soothe. It reputedly thwarts diseases generally and, most specifically, damping off disease of seedlings. Any gardening questions? Email them to me at garden@ leereich.com.

Furniture that grows up with your baby
T DOESN’T TAKE LONG for new parents (and grandparents) to learn that baby furniture isn’t just expensive, but the little ones will outgrow it almost before it’s paid for. If you’re a do-it-yourselfer, however, this handsome nursery set provides an affordable alternative. As a crib, this convertible crib and bed fits a standard crib mattress and features two drawers below and a cabinet above. When the baby outgrows the crib, the project converts to a junior-size captain’s bed simply by removing the cabinet, slatted sides and footboard.
The matching changing table and dresser also feature two big drawers and a cabinet for plenty of storage. Even simpler to convert than the crib, the project’s removable changing top allows it to be transformed into a “big kid” dresser in a matter of minutes. Both projects are made of oak (as pictured; almost any other wood will work), and construction is simple. First, cut out the pieces and sand everything. Next, assemble using screws, glue and dowels. Finally, apply finish of choice and install the hardware. The crib and bed measures
about 68 inches long by 39 inches tall by 38 inches deep, and the changing table and dresser is about 47 inches tall
by 31 inches wide by 18 inches deep. The Nursery Set, No. C158, is $16.95 and includes both

Long-term U.S. mortgage rates down to 3.55% U.S. long-term mortgage rates are near historically low levels, with the average on the benchmark 30-year loan falling this week to its lowest level since November 2016. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday that the average rate on the 30-year loan slipped to 3.55% this week from 3.60% the week before. The rate stood at 4.51% a year ago. The average mortgage rate for 15-year, fixed-rate home loans eased to 3.03% from 3.07% last week. The low borrowing rates
have been a boon for homebuyers, even as global financial markets are roiled by concerns over the global economy. U.S. stocks have rebounded this week after last week’s steep plunge triggered when the bond market sent out a signal that a recession could be on the horizon. Still, markets around the world continue to be raked by anxiety over the U.S.-China trade war and slowing global economic growth. Investors fleeing stocks to the safety of bonds have
