    question about tub drain stop
    I have a bathtub with one of the pull-lever stopper that has never worked really well. Can I just put a pop-up drain stopper on that tub? Something like this.

    Me and JL have virtual coffee most every morning but we are working up to real donuts, and it looks like apple fritters are added to the list. Love apple fritters.
