I've spent the last few days quietly celebrating my rebirth and happy dancing all over the place. Not re-birth-birthday-related, I mean, more like life-related. It's my one year anniversary from leaving …
Thanks to Black & Decker for making this possible. I'm under no obligation to write about the 36V cordless tiller I received for free, but I'm doing it anyways. Because …
I don't know if the ivy sprawling along my garage is ever going to be fully under control; so much of it climbs through my neighbor's yard and along the …
Checking off more backyard to-do's in rapid succession, I finally got around to curing a little hole in the fence. The yard is entirely fenced in, which as a dog-owner, is …
Today's my third home-a-versary. Three years ago this morning I still didn't know what I'd owe at closing that same day (poor girl, bank-panic, high blood pressure). Three years ago by …
We were really quick to remove the old bathroom vanity and replace with the new IKEA model during our bathroom renovation. The new sink and vanity were pretty much love …
From time to time, I do little DIYs that make me happy. Or ask for advice on completely miscellaneous projects. Or get compelled to remind you that I'm human by …
Door decor happens to be something I'm wildly attuned to, that's why I try to keep to a seasonal swap-out schedule. I like to keep things fresh. I happen to …
It's been awhile since I posted to the Dainty Details series, nearly 13-months now that I reflect back on it. Initially meant to highlight some of the quaint details of …

I don't know what you did on Friday afternoon, but Pete and I ran furiously towards the weekend at full speed, both desperately needing a little break from sitting opposite …
... and also, lots of beach glass. Can you believe I've been gathering a full cup of beach glass each time I walk on shores of Lake Ontario? This was just …
I preface this with a very upfront "I'm No Landscaper" disclosure, but my little 1/10th-acre lot is a great place to start learning the landscaping essentials without getting totally, whole-heartedly, …
I've briefed you on this situation before. On any given day, the possibility of the linen closet explosion knocking you down the stairs was 8-in-10. The contents within were crammed like …
With almost as much eagerness as when I had stripped the felt covers off the living room pillows, I updated the sunroom door curtain over the weekend. The heavy felt …
My travels have taken me all over the place lately, trips for which I'm very lucky. I'm feeling a little bit nomadic and like an airport security pro lately with …
Hi! It's Saturday, and I'm spending my weekend glued to my TV and DVR looking for glimpses of THIS during episodes of Renovation Realities, Rehab Addict, and Kitchen Crashers: Humor me …
