We got a new A/C system installed just a couple of weeks ago and will be applying the tax credits. Not only are we getting the $1500, but also $150 from our power company and a $1700 rebate from Yo...

I love it! My kitchen is a golden yellow and everyone says it's very bright and cheerful, despite having honey wood cabinets and dark counter tops. This brighter yellow looks great with all that cl...
Tonight, I made a small version of this with a handful of blackberries I had. They were spoiling and we'll be away for the holiday, so I made a mini cobbler, reducing the dough to 1/2 cup sugar and...
Palindrome - I totally call the cops on anyone that parks their car in front of my house, mostly because my neighbors tend to party until late and then I have to hear the car's owners throwing up o...

Loved redecorating with ya'll. This series was definitely the best of AT. I'm sad it's over!
