Oh dear! It’s Christmas, and Christmas means lights, lovely lights. Now this reminds me to take care of the busted post light that we have outside. The other one is still working and it’s a good thing that I was able to find a similar outdoor lighting. I don’t need to buy two pairs anymore. [...]

I didn’t realize this was possible. Well it’s probably because I am just accustomed to see it in metal. I am talking about the wood swing set. This one is maintenance-free. They are using cedar, a type of wood which resists rot and decay. Had I known about this thing a couple of years back, [...]

We’ve been buying our water for years now, I mean our drinking water. We used to drink tap, but it’s scary to do it now especially when I saw how dirty the water can be. I think I want to get my own water filter instead of buying from the water store. By that I [...]

As much as possible we go for anything stainless. I guess the reason is pretty obvious. We want things to stay longer with us. It’s a form of savings I may say. And there are a lot of benefits when you pick everything stainless. If only I knew about these stainless steel tiles three years [...]

I heard that in some areas in the US and Canada, it has gotten abnormally cold. It’s just the fall season, but others say that it’s like winter already. Time to get ready then and take care of some things that will help make us feel hot. Furnace will be put to use early, but [...]
