Another little cheap thing I've found..

If you're into lotions and all those things without the chemicals, a simple and cheap solution is going to Target where the travel products are.. and find a little jar of Vaseline.  Use that as lotion.. for only a little over $1.  And to me personally, it actually feels better than using lotions.  Maybe petroleum jelly is better..?

New Amazon Buy!

So by now you should know I have an obsession with solar lights- especially for the backyard.  Yesterday, I happened to mysteriously come across these lights while I was buying something else on Amazon.  As you can see in the background of the picture, I there's an orange flame light (to the left).  I got this light over a year ago.  Sadly, one of them broke and I had this one left.  I was quite excited to see that these lights were on sale!  I thought a blue flame would be awesome to add into the light mixture.  Do I love it?  I love them!  I may have to get more "regular" orange lights too in the future. Where to find these lights? Here's the link:  https://amzn.to/3whpqix   I just love how it adds color to all the lights! :)

 Ok, it's been a while since posting anything.  Obviously, much has happened in the past two years since COVID has started.  There's another addition to the family, we've experienced having COVID, and plenty of other things.  Perhaps one of the biggest things that happened was that we purchased the house that we're in.  So now we finally get to do some upgrades to our place.  The projects that we got to do ourselves, well, surprised us a little how well it turned out!  One of the tasks was to remove the wallpaper in our kitchen.  We had this grassy wallpaper and when scraping under it, we discovered another layer of wallpaper.  Our home is old (built in the '40s), so it was interesting to see the "history" of the walls.  One product we used was this: https://amzn.to/3JVhN6Y This thing was amazing! It saved us so much time.  We were trying to use a spray and scrape off the wallpaper.  That was taking too long.  Luckily, my ...

Water Time!

If there's any one thing to add to a garden to really enhance the ambiance, it would definitely be a water feature.  But what about a water feature that doesn't use up any of your own electricity?  That's where the solar fountain comes in.  I bought mine a few years ago, so it's looking quite aged as you can see, but it's still working and I get to hear the constant sound of running water in my backyard, as long as the sun is out, of course!  The one I have has interchangeable fountain heads where you can get a shower type effect.  My shower effect was a little too wide for the dish I was using it for, so I just found a piece of old tubing and stuck it in the fountain to get the effect you see in the picture.  This way the water will stay in the pool without having to constantly refill.  See below for similar Amazon fountain.  Here's the link.. This fountain looks pretty much the same as the one I bought a few years ago, so I believe it's probably...
