There's way too much on my counters, but I'm slowly changing that.
For example, in the future, I plan to replace the faucet and separate sprayer with an integrated-sprayer faucet, whic...
My cupboards are a work-in-progress.
On Friday I corralled all the paper plates, plastic knives, etc that had been lurking from past parties in one place and discovered (to my horror ...

If I didn't have space for a regular oven, I'd go for the microwave-convection oven combo! Maybe the one in the pics above is one of those? (As it is, I'm eyeing
