Painting a New House
Sorry for the lack of posting on my part. I’m actually really missing writing everyday, but we just bought a house (yay!) and it needs a lot of work (boo!). So I’ve been spending all of my free time cleaning … Continue reading

Lasagna Pie
Everything about this absolutely intrigued me. So when I saw a picture of this on Pinterest, I knew I had to try it. I also know better than to follow a recipe on Pinterest (although maybe I should start giving … Continue reading

Going South (of the Mason Dixon Border)
