In Orange County, Wags and Wiggles in Rancho Santa Margarita and Tustin is fantastic. They have great trainers too if you want you dog to brush up on their "skilz" while you are at work.

I remember seeing that dog in the dog shower before and "drooling" over the thing. Can't remember where? But as I recall the people had just redone their kitchen and mudroom and it had a ton of c...

I like the gray and orange as well.

A house cleaner. Mostly because I hate to clean the bathroom. The rest of the house is just gravy.

Wish I could help - one of my dogs destroyed 3 brand new Restoration Hardware bathmats in 20 minutes while I was out talking to a neighbor. Sigh. Just close the bathroom door.

It's not just the fabric you have to worry about! The cushion filling has to be appropriate for outdoor use too or it's going to retain moisture. I'm all for hauling out a chair or two for a part...

No way. 2 golden retrievers? There would be no room for anyone else! It's the one dog hair free sanctuary in my house. They sleep on their beds.

Argh, I have stone downstairs and wood upstairs. And the rambunctious dogs have done a number on the wood with very little effort! Sigh. At least the dogs are cute.

If you've ever looked at a list of plants that are harmful to animals or children, you know there are a seemingly infinite number of plants that are poisonous in a small or large quantity. ...

I love the wall color with the blush pink accents!

I just spit out some of the last remaining can of diet coke in my house. Thanks a lot, Jennyb! ;-)

I'm not sure how much of the occult I believe in, but one thing I do believe in is residual energy. A neighbor on my street growing up had a brain tumor and ended up with a very angr...

Funny that the movie that so vehemently dissed Merlot launched a similar fad for Pinot!

Grrrr. This makes me nuts. Why keep and display your books if you don't think they are beautiful as they are??
