I am seeing a very popular, kind gesture make its way into more and more homes for the holiday season and I am just absolutely loving everything about it; and that is to leave little drinks and snacks for the delivery men and women who work hard delivering our packages, groceries, mail and whatever else […]

Gosh, looking back, the exterior of our house come a long way! It’s funny, we never used to think our house looked “hidden” until we started taking out bushes and thorny shrubs, which lead to taking out more bushes and shrubs, which lead to eventually taking them all out.
