The spouts of functional pouring vessels have to do two things: deliver well and hopefully look pleasing. Stint in either task and ya got problems, some less bothersome than others. And after my last post about the snub-spouted Cube Teapot, it might be manifestly simpler to say that functional spouts really have only […]
This project has been two years in the making, and it’s finally completed. I stained/sealed/finished/protected the deck! I won’t lie and say that I wasn’t a little intimidated to take on this massive project of staining a full 545 square feet of deck, railing, 102 spindles, and two sets of stairs, but I knew the…

Holy cow guys. I feel like I might finally be able to sleep tonight after weeks & weeks of trying to decide what we should do with our new pine flooring. So if you remember a few months ago we made the decision to install 8 inch pine boards into our house. Well, that was an easy decision... & I thought deciding whether to paint or stain would be easy as well. No. No it wasn't. I completely locked up & didn't know what to do because I loved painted & stained floors equally. So, I asked you guys ...

I am so excited to start doing DIY projects to go in our outdoor spaces for the season! I had the idea to create a cottage garden obelisk for our garden and Jose was kind enough to build one for me! While we have many structural supports for our garden plants, an obelisk is one that I have been wanting to add, as I love their unique shape so much! A garden obelisk is a tall structure with a pyramid-like shape used as a decor and also plant support. An obelisk can vary in style but each has a common

Something I have found to be quite useful lately is...broccoli slaw. It is an amazing thing, I tend to fancy up my salads by adding a little broccoli slaw to them and it works great, plus all the nutrients you get from broccoli can really help make a salad nutritious. Well I have found that I am unable to go through a bag of broccoli slaw quick enough to have a fresh salad all the time, so I have found that after about a week the slaw can start to go bad, but I have found the perfect way to not waste it...stir-fry. Broccoli slaw makes a great stir-fry base, it is so easy and tasty in the end that it really proves beneficial to me and the time I spend in the kitchen. Just use broccoli slaw as a base and include any vegetables you may have on hand, cook them up with some oil and soy sauce and you have a perfect side for any dish. You gotta give this a try. Ingredients: 1 tbsp oil (use more if needed) Broccoli slaw (can be found by the cole slaw mixes in any grocery store) Minced garlic Any vegetable ingredients of your choice, I tend to use onions, mushrooms, edamame, and/or zuchini 1 tsp soy sauce (can be increased if you would like a stronger soy sauce taste) garlic salt and/or salt and pepper to taste Directions: 1. Heat up the oil to medium heat in a large frying pan or a wok. Add the slaw, garlic, and the vegetables of your choice; making sure to wait on adding the quick-cooking veggies, like zuchini, until after the onions and broccoli have become tender. 2. Once veggies are tender, add the soy sauce, salt and pepper and mix everything together, let flavors meld for about 5 minutes. Serve hot alongside any of your favorite meats and some rice, enjoy!
