If you’ve been following this blog for a while, then you might have noticed how easily I can get carried away talking about the story behind every project.

I found this chair on the curb a few days ago. Its previous owner had left it out on the street for someone like me to pick it up. There were two of them but the other one was way too broken and I knew I wouldn’t have been able to fix it. The one… Continue Reading
If you’re a sea food fan, then you’ll like this recipe for sure! I’ve been making it for years and it’s one of my signature dishes!
