    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier September 16, 2023September 16, 2023

    The Care and Keeping of Your Home’s Floors

    ByMary Crozier June 7, 2023June 8, 2023

    It is rare that I think about our the care and keeping of our floors and flooring. But when I focus on it, our floors are exposed daily to dirt, grime, spills, and wear and tear. Think of all the places our shoes and/or feet have been, yet, at least for me, I do not…
