1. Get Organized. What a difference a day makes. Even though I don’t like the closet set up in our master bedroom, It’s clean. And I plan to keep it that way until it gets remodeled this spring. Do you think it’s weird I like how empty the shelves are? I wonder if they’ll start Read More >>

Yesterday I piled up some pillows and a blanket on the coffee table and set it under our front window so Lucy the Puggle Dog could watch everyone as they passed by our house. Wouldn’t you know, she stayed put for a good four hours? 🙂 I think I need to find her a proper Read More >>

Now I don’t want to scare you off, but this was the most time consuming recipe I have ever made. The process took 3 days. And it was totally worth every spoonful of marmalade it produced. I had intended to give most of it away as Christmas gifts, but it was so good, and it Read More >>

Yes, our closet at the new house has a ton of storage space, but I hate it. Everything from the bad lighting to the discolored white melamine shelving that doesn’t line up correctly to the IKEA wardrobe closet with waaaaay to many drawers.

Word of the Day: Remunerate Definition: To pay service, reward, recompense. Used in a sentence: They did not fail to remunerate him generously for his work. Lucy the Puggle Dog stayed in bed until 10 am yesterday, what a life! It’s suppose to be around 50 degrees here in Western Washington today so I’m hoping to get Read More >>

Remember the 20 pounds of grapefruit I bought from my neighbor boy a few weeks ago? Well out of all the grapefruit recipes I’ve experimented with lately, this one takes the cake {no pun intended!}.
