Many people believe that wooden raised beds where organic because they are made of wood; a natural material. So did I until I did a little research and found out that many wood materials that are used to construct a raised flower or vegetable garden are treated with chemicals to help them last longer in an outdoor environment. One of those chemicals just happens to be arsenic, and if used in a vegetable garden could seep into the soil and eventually into your home grown vegetables! (more…)

I really enjoy cooking in cast iron. Now cast iron is not a lightweight cookware and can be to heavy for some people to handle. But otherwise you just can’t be the toughness and lasting durability of good old-fashioned cast iron. It’s one of the big reasons people have been using cast iron for generation. Cast iron is also an excellent conductor of heat and produces outstanding results. I’ve been using a cast iron frying pan and Dutch oven that I inherited from my grandmother for years now. I finally decided to buy a new piece for myself and chose this Rachael Ray Enamel Cast Iron Round Casserole Pot. (more…)

The moment I saw the Nantucket Ball Finial I just had to have it on my stair banister and I loved it so much in the house I simply had to add it to the deck rail and privacy fence surrounding the back yard. When I first saw this particular finial it struck a chord of sentimentality in me and I realized, that was because it reminded me of the movie “It’s A Wonderful Life” starring Jimmy Stewart. I remembered how he repeatedly forgot that the ball finial on the stairs was not fastened in place and he kept grabbing it and knocking it off. The whole story takes place in the quaint little fictitious town of Bedford Falls which is incidentally just the kind of town I have always wanted to live in so I decided to bring a little of Bedford Falls to my house.

Paul Ranson (1864 – 1909 ) was a French post-Impressionist painter and a member of a group of artists who called themselves Les Nabis (nabi is Hebrew for prophet). Les Nabis believed that a work of art represented the fusion of personal experience with symbolism and metaphor. This practice and style of painting would lay the groundwork for the emergence of abstract and non-representational art. Even in scenes ostensibly based in nature such as Apple Tree with Red Fruit, the emphasis is not on realism, but on symbolism. The limbs of the trees in this picture are like human arms holding apples and the influence of Japanese prints can be seen. The vivid colors and sharp definition of this painting translate beautifully into Apple Tree with Red Fruit Tapestry. (more…)

It’s a rare bonsai enthusiast who won’t be thrilled with the sight of a mature flowering crab apple bonsai and it won’t matter if it’s in bloom, in leaf, carrying a full measure of brilliant red crab apples or leafless and dormant for the winter.  There’s no way around it, the Flowering Sargents Crabapple Bonsai– Malus sargentii is a very special tree for any bonsai collection.

My sister is a Realtor and she and her husband have everything you can think of and it’s really hard to find anything to buy for her at Christmas.  Our taste in clothes is totally different as well as just about everything else.  The only thing we have in common is our love of our yards and gardens.  So even though there’s not much she could want for her garden I managed to find a wonderful garden gift that fits in with her love of being a Realtor as well.

Have you ever wondered how the water filters work and if they really do anything? Well then read this because I will describe how water filters work and just what it is that they do.

I believe that most people who love to spend time in the kitchen are either natural born cooks or natural born bakers. For instance, my sister will invite you to dinner, order takeout, and serve you an amazing homemade dessert. I am the opposite. At my house the dinner is always homemade, but there is a decent chance that the dessert came from the local bakery. Baking is a part of kitchen life, though, and we all get the bug sometimes. So many memories are wrapped up with the idea of family celebrations, food, and time in the kitchen. Sometimes I want to taste the cherry cake that has been a family staple since my great-grandmother first made it over eighty years ago without trekking across town and bribing my sister to make it. Since I’m not a natural born baker, I really need the tools I use to be simple, functional, and hardy, so recently I decided to purchase a new stainless steel square cake pan. (more…)

For those of us who live in areas where we’d rather treat the water that originates from reservoirs and other government areas, buying a separate water filter is a good choice. First and foremost, they rid the water of harmful chemicals such as chlorine and other contaminants. Also, taste really does matter and getting a good taste without having to pay hundreds of dollars on a whole house filtration system is possible with other options. I have found that the Brita system filters for your faucet are the best and we purchase the Brita FR-200 2-pack, White Faucet Filter 42402 in particular. (more…)
