No carving pumpkin decor

I was walking in the Rockridge area of Oakland yesterday and I came across these chalkboard pumpkins at Rockridge Home for $12.00.  I thought it was a cute way to ‘carve’ a pumpkin without the risk of slicing any major appendages.  Let the kiddos use chalk and let the adults use the knives.  This is making me want to get...

Pets + Kids

Having a baby is a transition for everyone involved, including the furry friends in the house.  I happen to have two furry friends who are quite mischievous–to give you a sampling of their behavior, they can open the fridge, jump onto every surface in the apartment, and have dragged a 4′ faux Christmas tree from one room to the next...
