What Does “Home” Mean to Me?

What Does “Home” Mean to Me?

When my husband was looking to buy a house 12 years ago, I just couldn’t really visualize what he was seeing with our current home. That is until we put our personal touch on it with paint and decor. But I realize now that we have a family, a home is more than just cosmetics.

A Microwave, an Air Fryer and a Convection Oven all-in-one, Oh My!

Maybe it’s the changing weather and I’m not sweating just from getting up off the couch since the crisp, cold air has finally arrived.

Grandma’s Goop and Other Old-School Cleaning Tips That Still Work Today

Grandma’s Goop and Other Old-School Cleaning Tips That Still Work Today

 

Those were the days. And when it comes to some cleaning tips, they still should be.

No one wants to hear someone talk about how they “walked to school uphill in the snow both ways” when they were kids. Still, when your grandparents were young, they really didn’t have it as easy as we do in many ways. Cleaning, in particular, required more work with fewer tools.
