Yesterday I ended up calling the fire department after my home filled with smoke, and we couldn’t locate the source. Turns out my refrigerator exploded. We knew we’d have to replace it soon, we were hoping to replace the windows first. The best laid plans and all that….

No, not for you, for me! My husband and I have been planting trees here and there around our property for privacy and shade. Little seedlings take long to grow, however, and bigger trees are expensive. The other day, one of my neighbors had a sign up in front of his property: Free Bamboo […]
Are your kids into action figures? At 5, mine is just starting to get into them. Hopefully, he’ll appreciate this: Fisher Price is offering a free Planet Heroes DVD.
