let there be light!
Thanks so much to everyone who has already responded to my plea for a Green Bean Casserole recipe! Lots of you had great tips! I think the verdict is (drumroll please). . .I'll just go with the recipe on the French's Fried Onion can. SO MANY of you said that's what you use and it sounds yummy and easy to me! There were a few fancier recipes suggested that sounded good, but I think I'll keep it simple for my first go-round! Thanks to you all!!Progress on our home renovations is really coming along! Today we had the contractor who did our dry wall work come back and install new recessed lights!!...
recipe help!
Hey blog readers. Does anyone out there have a tried-and-true Green Bean Casserole recipe they'd be willing to share with me?? I just got my assignment for Thanksgiving dinner. We're going my aunt and uncle's house and I'm bringing Green Bean Casserole.(thanks to Flickr for the photo)It's not something we normally have at Thanksgiving in my family, I don't have a family recipe to use. I've had other people's Green Bean Casserole and so I know I like it, and I'm excited to make it for the first time! Obviously, I could just Google a recipe, but I'd rather have it come from someone who can...
wire flowers
Hi there!! Sorry for the lack of posts this week. We've been undertaking big renovations here at the Leavitt House. I had no computer or internet for two days at the beginning of the week, and even now I'm set up in a very temporary location. But we're making excellent progress! Picking paint colors is TOUGH but we're getting close. And I REALLY hope everything will be painted and put back together by Thanksgiving. I think the nursery might even be painted and finished this weekend. We'll see how much we can get done!!ANYWAY - I'll post more about our decorating, remodeling, etc. later!...

in the market for a desk?
I just listed this online to sell, but I figured I might as well give any local blog-readers a chance to buy it too!We're selling this big cool wood desk that we just don't have a place for. (it's hard to get rid of real-life grown-up furniture you actually like but don't have any use for). Remember this old layout?? It's me in our old house with the desk we're selling! Or what about this one? It's this desk in our current house before I got my new white Ikea desk.ANYWAY - here's the details:For sale: good-looking wood desk. Measures 30" tall, 57.5" long, and 30" deep. In pretty good condition....
stumped
So . . . We're currently in the midst of ripping our house apart. While I was at Disney World, Josh was a busy guy! The ugly paneling has FINALLY come down, and the sparkly ceilings have been scraped off!! YAY! But now we've got the task of sanding and scraping the old glue off the walls and using plaster to make the walls smooth. Oh joy.But here's where I'm stumped: I have NO IDEAS for how to decorate the living room. I've got plenty of ideas for the baby's room. But nothing for our front room. Our living room and dining room are one open space. Oh and my "office" area...
