Right now there are soy nuts, 2 luna bars, wasabi peas, cup a soup (at least 3 years old), green tea and Finn-Crisp crackers. In the fridge is a jar of natural peanut butter. Other things making re...
The table is lovely - I agree with those who've suggested bright yellow, which I think would be great with the lampshade.
For those who are distressed by tissue boxes (I am not one of ...
We use google calendar as our family calendar so that my husband and I can both easily make changes. I created an additional calendar titled "Dinner" and the menu for the week goes there. It's nice...
Yep - it's the secret ingredient in our family cornbread recipe. Which is actually the recipe that is/was on clabber girl baking powder with bacon fat in lieu of shortening. And we use it to make r...

Oy, there's a reason I never look at Staub. I'm having teapot envy.
