And lately, many of the books I’ve read either have bees as a subject or bees in the title or both. With fall upon us, and time for reading a bit more ample than it was ...

I went shopping with my son for his professional clothing, at his insistence! For those of you who are mothers with sons, you can probably relate. When younger, my son, like most other... Read more →

My eldest daughter, Jenn, and I decided that it was time to get rid of her beige, outdated downstairs carpet and put down wood floors in its place. We watched... Read more →
