What’second New

- As for that narrow drawer we spoke of next to our stove, here’s a photograph from an quondam kitchen system post, back when it housed a single bottle of olive petroleum (and a jolt of common salt). You can also see how the frames on these erstwhile cabinets have upwards a lot of space. We’ll gain a lot more storage alongside our newer frameless cabinets (especially because we’re shifting the stove over a chip).

- We besides spoke almost paving our forepart driveway at about bespeak, since we currently have this fancy pino-straw-over-sand setup (tin yous encounter my tire marks below?).

Yup, nosotros’re all the same a i auto household together with we however accept the same eight yr sometime Toyota Highlander (150,000 miles in addition to going stiff!).

- If we were always to build the “guest household” building (aka: our shed amongst a bed), it would basically go behind that big tree where the light-green argue is (the puddle is on the other side of the argue). Obviously we’d accept to reconstruct the debate differently, but our entire goal was to run about that gorgeous tree!

- This is the weighted blanket Sherry sleeps alongside every dark (it’s the OG I gave her years ago every bit a Christmas acquaint). The washable encompass, softness, too non-too-hot material is what she considers a few of its best features.
- But if you lot’re looking for a lighter selection, this is the furry throw blanket we got of late for our downstairs sofa. The whole family unit is obsessed alongside (nosotros take it inward the neutral colour).
