To make life easier...

As I was putting out new pillows today I was reminded about the purpose of my blog.  The reason I set up this blog was for the real working people of the world who, like me have kids, animals and are busy.  Its not just about short cuts but about short cuts that can still make it possible to have a beautiful home and garden.  Easy recipes for when, like me, you have 30 minutes to fix dinner between soccer and cheer leading practice as an example.  I will post tips and tricks I have learned over last twenty years.  I would love posts from people who also have great tricks and tips they have found to make their busy life easier.  I go out and am asked all the time about different things, whether it is style, decorating or how to put what I have in my hands together.  My blog is my way to share what I have learned with you.
