Brrrrrr! It's very cold in Kansas City this morning! We have such odd weather here in the midwest. Yesterday morning when I left the house it was in the 60s. So I only wore a light jacket to work. Then the temperature dropped all day and by the time I left work it was about… Continue reading Uncommon Gift Ideas
Seed Storage
I haven't written about gardening in quite awhile, since my garden this past summer was not very successful. It started off great and then quickly went downhill.

A Bargain Leads to Comfort Food
Last week Benzo and I stopped into our favorite used book store while we were out and about. We like to stop by about once a week or so to see if there's anything new.

Homemade Toilet Bowl Cleaner
Have I got a gem for you today. Several weeks ago I whipped up a homemade toilet bowl cleaner when I was cleaning my bathrooms one weekend. I wanted to share it, but I didn't write anything down of course and couldn't remember what all I used. So the next time I cleaned my bathroom… Continue reading Homemade Toilet Bowl Cleaner

My 33 For Project 333
Well that weekend went by fast. I meant to post my 33 sometime on Saturday or Sunday, but then...I didn't.

Sometimes I don't… Continue reading My 33 For Project 333
