Demo Day!

When your bathroom looks like a crime scene!

Out with the old, in with the...well, nothing yet.

Still in DEMO mode.

Mr. Wonderful hard at work!

My JOB . . . carry the pile of boards and tiles downstairs. 

Day ONE :: Mission Accomplished!

The sinks & toilet stayed. Everything else... 

. . . GONE!

That's a wrap, { for today that is }!

   

Happy wrecking ball Wednesday!

Oh Boy ~ Here we go Again!

ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?!

 Mr.Wonderful is at it again!

Demolition has begun!

And, there is no turning back!!

Demolition: the messiest form of therapy. 😜

BUH-BYE  old, DATED bathroom 

Our bathroom renaissance begins with a sledgehammer!

Happy Tuesday!

Think Green!

Have a Shamrockin'

St. Patrick’s Day!

LEGO my Rome-o!

Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither was my LEGO Trevi Fountain. 

So, when your kids give you Legos . . .

. . . rebuild Rome (one brick at a time) !! 

😉

Our kids were home for a visit when I  finally finished the Trevi Fountain Lego they gave me for Christmas. They helped me fix a few of my mistakes first ✔

and then I completed the last 3 packages while they watched. 

We were all so excited when I attached the last piece! 

Needless to say, we are all 

LEGO MANIACS!

Okay, now for the Coin Toss . . . ( drum roll please )

Throw it in the fountain or spend it on 

more LEGO's?? 

 Decisions, decisions!

~ Have a great week ~

Business formal to Classroom Floral :: special gifts

Some beautiful gifts from Vietnam visitors last week. 

A traditional tea set and a lovely vase! 

Also, some teacher appreciation week roses at a school from parents! 

A very special week!!

Happy Thursday!

Happiness is a CAKE you can wear as a CROWN

Every time I bake, I realize that life is too short for small cakes. 

However, baking cakes in all sizes seems to cover all the bases when it comes to sharing.

A cake for home.

With whipped cream bling, 

of course! (It makes me happy!!)

And, always some cake for my team/friends at school 

because a bundt cake is just love sculpted into edible geometry.

Right?! 😉

There are three sizes of bundt cakes this time,

but only one way to devour them . . .

. . . without hesitation! 

When in doubt, bake a bundt!!

Happy Wednesday! 

Chicken Pot Pie

This is the ultimate comfort food! At least we think so.

It is also a tasty way to use up leftover roasted chicken. 

Peas, carrots, cream and seasoning were added and then it was topped off with a flaky crust.

We had something similar at a restaurant in Michigan recently so we decided to try and recreate the amazing taste and texture. 

We both agreed it turned out at as good or maybe even better despite 

the fact that we didn't have the cute individual cast iron skillets to serve it in. No worries.

Either way, we know for sure, that we will be making it again. 

Yum!
