The Salad Caper

My kids loves Fuji apples to death. They munch on it all day if we have them in the house. The only problem I have with them is that they want their apples peeled and sliced. ALL THE TIME. And if you do not know yet, I am left handed un-domesticated woman who still has [...]

Im getting the itch to get the house kitchen stuff. We basically need a new cutlery set, another pair of dinnerware and some organizers for things – like canisters for coffee, sugar, juice, etc. If only we can get a cash advance from the husband’s company, we would all be set.

I dont think the husband would approve but this is so nice, I would even think I’m just playing house!
Id want one in pink please!
It looks like toy kitchen tools! They are so cute!

It tends to get productive as I’ve discovered things I can get for our kitchen. I’m trying hard to [...]
