Often, tasteful retrofits are designed to expand an existing sterile, underused outdoor living space into a fun magnet. Most of us have some sort of existing patio or deck, but it might simply lack the personality that prompts it to be inviting. Consequently, the sofa sees more action than the patio furniture. As with many exposed aggregate and concrete patios, [...]
No matter what you call it – sustainable, eco-friendly, or just plain green – a modern bathroom improvement project is about much more than being friendly to Mother Nature’s environment. It’s about being friendly to our family’s health as well. An older bathroom is generally the smallest, dampest, most energy-intensive, water-hogging, chemical-laden, smell-trapping, light-starved, material-sensitive, under-ventilated, traffic-jammed-up, malfunction-prone room in [...]

Oreo cookies are one of my weaknesses, and Oreo Bark is oh-so-yummy! I made this on a whim the other day (an experimental recipe at the time) and brought it to a party with me. I got a lot of compliments on it and it was so simple that I was almost embarrassed to share my “recipe.” This is so [...]
I used to work with a woman who came to work always super unwound. She was relaxed and ready. She was calm and collected. She didn’t seem to have a care in the world. She’d stroll in the office at her leisure, but always on time, and sit down coiled for work little a rattlesnake. However, unlike the rattler, she [...]
Q: Can one have a face-lift without any visible scars in front of the ear? I have darker skin and like to wear my hair back and up. I am worried that someone may be able to see the scars running down in front of my ears. I need a mini-face-lift, but many results I have seen show the scar [...]
