    Styling for Fall

    ByMary Crozier September 1, 2020September 2, 2020

    I can honestly say I felt a slight drop in temperature this weekend. Well, even though it remains hot here, it is a perfect time to think about styling for fall! What a grueling summer we are having. For the next several weeks, fall weather will tease us. But every year, we get our Indian…

    Aspiring to Achieve Historical Authenticity

    ByMary Crozier August 26, 2020August 26, 2020

    If you have ever owned a historical home, there is a sense of stewardship that comes with it. For me, it’s hard to imagine someone prior to 1910 dreaming about building this house we now enjoy.

    ByMary Crozier August 22, 2020April 7, 2021

    The world needs more lavender to promote calmness and wellness, don’t you think? I love sachets, but the larger lavender pillows are getting my attention lately. However, is it me or do they seem expensive? $49.95 for a 7″ square lavender pillow? So what better way to get a lavender pillow than make them yourself….

    Using Summer Zucchini~Two Different Ways

    ByMary Crozier August 19, 2020May 17, 2022

    Lately I have been craving zucchini….go figure. I’ve been lightly sautéing it in butter with salt and pepper and just eating bowlfuls of it. However, I still have more in the refrigerator and decided to whip up an old favorite, zucchini lasagna. This low-carb dish is a repeat meal at our home and it freezes…
