Laundry Room Remodel

Home Remodeling In mid-2019 we decided it was time to update our laundry room which is also our kitchen pantry.

Warming Tray/Buffet – This Saturday’s Shout-Out

A couple of holidays ago, I was able to score this awesome Bella Cucina Triple Buffet/Warming Tray at Macy’s on sale for $39.99 with an extra $10 rebate.  This is worth every bit of $30 and probably even more.  I’ve tried other chafing dishes and hated them – scalded the food, burned your hand touching

Do You Ever Live Kroger Trip to Kroger Trip?

So, not much happening at our house now that Stella’s birthday is over.  Who am I kidding?  Not much happening tonight because we are exhausted.  But things are always on-the-go over here and I always seem to be preparing for the next thing…which in this case is a trip to Florida on Saturday morning.  Just

Cullen’s Abc’s – This Saturday’s Shout-Out

I was rushing around the kitchen trying to get things ready for Stella’s b-day party and also trying to decide on this Saturday’s shout-out…what to do this week?  Then I got a Facebook message from a distant relative (both in location and connection).  She suggested I check out Cullen’s Abc’s on YouTube and on her
