It is indeed a beautiful house! I would love to own one. I was amazed at how little most of the rooms have acutally changed and how well the original designs fit so well into todays styles.....grace & elegance...I do love it and how the new owner has taken care of it..(redoing it) beautiful!
How wonderful to have all those old records & photos!

we make a great 'oven pancake' that is made the same way, only using a rectangular glass pan. We put the butter in the pan, put it in the oven while it is heating up. The batter is poured into the hot pan with the hot melted butter.
We cut it up and serve it covered in syrup.
yumm

Oh! I would so luv to have a clothes line again. It's been a few years but the memory of the smell! makes me swoon in joy..
I like crisp .. definitely not crunchy ... line dried clothes and linens... it's the best...
It's also one of those "good time" memories I have when growing up!
Thanks for the tut for the "pin bag"

Awesome advice! I'm definately a victim of buying the wrong storage products too soon. I'm a sewer/quilter with a large supply of fabric. I need storage that will fit in spaces that will be in a new much smaller apartment (downsized from a 4 bedroom townhouse). I will go through my stash now keeping as much as possible until I know what my options will be..... I've viewed one place would have been perfect, lots of room great closet etc.... unfortunately it was ground floor right next to the entrance.....
I really like your clutter help....

They sound yummy! I was just wondering about the 'apple'? I can't vision getting 1 1/2 - 2 cups from one medium apple?
Should I just keep gratting until I get 2 cups?
Have you tried using the cheddar, but without oil?
Oh MY!! so any questions!!
I am diabetic and always looking for good after meal treats or a 'good' snack to have with my tea......thanks for sharing

I have an antique "Pullman" fold out couch/sofa. It belonged to my husbands grandmother from the turn of the century. I forget the name of the style, there is not a curve to be found on it. It's all straight lines. Oak and leather. I luv it...will hold onto it for as long as possible..
