At the start of a new year, after getting rid of the Christmas tree, I always get the urge to do some serious cleaning. You know, to start the new year fresh and with a clean slate. Literally. So I decided to tackle the top of my kitchen cupboards. Top of the kitchen cupboards The...
When we moved to the countryside I finally gave in, and we got two cats. Four years later we even got a little dog. But for many years, I firmly put my foot down when it came to pets. In 2011 I wrote this post about it. Mean Mom Syndrome For years now, I've been...

In my kitchen cupboard I always have a plate that represents the season. They were a present from my mother in law. But in these days before Christmas I removed the plate for Autumn, and replaced it with a special Christmas plate I found in our cellar. Christmas plate from the cellar! Our cellar used...

I hate catching a cold. But sometimes the germs and viruses sneak into our home like a Trojan horse. In the form of my husband for example! Keep your distance! When my husband came home from work last Friday, coughing and sniffling pathetically, I told him to keep his distance! I even did that gesture....
I like having birds in our garden. The more the merrier. In a quest to entice more birds to come and visit our garden, my husband and I hung bird food. Then we sat back and waited for the birds to show. But the thing is, waiting can be kind of boring. So after a...
