Making Laundry Detergent


The debate in finally over...I've decided to go ahead and make a batch of lavender laundry detergent. I will be using this recipe which makes 110.5 loads for only $1.11. This should be fun!

Number Boxes


I've been busy organizing everything in the apartment for the past few months and I really like this idea from Domino. This would help with the constant relabeling of storage boxes that seems to go on in our home several times a year. You just have to write down the contents on a master list for each number. Great Idea!

Milk At Its Finest


Today I was checking up on the kitchen tours at thekitchen.com and fell upon a tour of the Shatto Dairy. I practically fell off my chair with excitement...my gosh I love their milk! They sell all their dairy products in vintage looking glass with black font and make the best chocolate milk probably ever created. Here is some info about Shatto taken from their site.

Shatto Milk Company products can be described by one simple statement that we have adopted as our motto, MILK AT ITS FINEST. Our family goes to great lengths to insure that the products we sell are truly the freshest and best tasting.

  • The milk sold by Shatto Milk Company comes from cows not treated with rbST (recombinant bovine somatotropin) or recombinant bovine growth hormone (rbGH).**
  • Shatto Milk comes only from the cows located on our family farm.
  • Shatto Milk can be from the cow to the store in as little as 12 hours.
  • All of us at Shatto Milk Company have made it our top priorities to (1) limit the number of times the milk is handled, and (2) to process our milk in a manner that maintains its superior taste.

Look At Your Watch Now


The appreciation I have for menswear is no surprise. Throughout my life I've been drawn to mens suit vests, argyle socks, cashmere sweaters, and of course jams. Recently I've decided to add another to my list of loves...the mens Timex watch. I wear the watch above just about everyday and have been for the past ten months. You really can't go wrong with a Timex watch!
