    Kitchen Help

    As the title of this post suggests, I’ve decided to hire kitchen help. Things are getting stressful and I can’t take the whole “3-meals-a-day” thing anymore.

    $3 Wall Art

    Greetings and Salutations. 🙂 So I was in Hobby Lobby last month (looking for pin backs or some such nonsense) and cut through the wall art section to get to the jewelry section when I saw this: Wow. Big. Cool. And one other word popped into my head when I saw the price tag. I…
