Have you ever been scared of basements as a child? Despite my 30's, I still have the same childhood fear when I go into the basement. This time is even more terrifying because the darkness is accompanied by humidity, which creates the ideal conditions for mold growth. In fact, you don't even need special tools to find black mold...
So, yes this is Christmas and I just bought a live Christmas tree to fill my home with joy, fresh pine scent and pine needles, of course. It’s basically impossible not to drop some pine needles on the floor or carpet when you bring the Christmas tree indoors. They will fall everywhere, including on the furniture and into far...
Most Americans choose to decorate a live Christmas tree, because nothing compares with a fresh pine aroma during the holidays. Well, this is the Christmas tradition: either you go and cut your own pine tree or purchase it from the local Christmas tree farms.

Many will say it’s simple to boil some pasta and make the sauce, and...
Bathroom ceramic fixtures are the best! You can clean them easily using just soapy water, but somehow, my ceramic bathroom sink has some marks on it that look like scratches. To be more specific, they look like pot marks, but aren’t pot marks.
Since I can’t use abrasive cleaners on the ceramic sink, because I will scratch it even more...
I am the proud mother of a three year old daughter who recently started kindergarten. So, in her first day of kindergarten, I dressed her up like Tooth fairy and got her a new pair of pink UGG’s (her favorite color). Of course, the magic wand was a fixture to her outfit! However, the magic didn’t last for long,...
As autumn fades, we slowly put aside our trenches, jackets, flats, and obviously, our knitted UGG’s, because it’s time for those warm and cozy sheepskin UGG. But, before storing any autumn item, I properly wash or clean it. Since cleaning my autumn clothes and flats was a piece of cake, I ran into major problems when I decided to...
Winter is just around the corner, and we can't wait to see the first snow fall. Weepaa! I can't wait! The snow would be perfect if it didn't melt at some point, leaving filthy, disgusting dirt on the sidewalks and driveways. If you're walking in these conditions it's practically impossible to keep your shoes dry, especially sheepskin UGGs. Once...
