August 22, 2019 Our New Gym! Have you ever moved? YES! I can remember 19 different homes in my early years. My husband and I have shifted houses 10 times in almost 17 years. I am intimately aware of moving. I know just how many boxes can fit in a [...]

July 10, 2019 Cranberry Sauce Sweet’n’Sour We had a few leftover cans of cranberry sauce from around Thanksgiving. (A few? Like a dozen or so!) We don’t like to waste stuff, you know, waste not want not, and since we’d given so much away our family didn’t need any more [...]
