By: Kristen Clifford I know it sounds like the olden days, but my husband and I love going to the drive-in. For Father’s Day my husband took our oldest by himself, while I sat home with the twins, as they are much too young to enjoy the night. We always go to the Drive-In in … More Drive-In

As much as I love all the projects, writing assignments, math … More Drowing in Paper!

But at the risk of sharing too much information, humor me (and maybe yourself!) while I explain the debacle that happened in our bathroom the other day, as well as the magic that cleared it up. Or, if you’re squeamish about literal … More Clogged Toilet? Just Use a Simple Everyday Ingredient to Fix It!
By: Sheila Gaudet When people hear that my husband is an airline pilot, their first reaction is usually, “ooh, free flights!” That can be a benefit of being part of an airline.
