http://thelifeofahouse.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
The Life of a House. Sunday, September 14, 2014. Heads up: this is a sort of ranty post about allergies and only has one yucky picture. Stay tuned for later in the week, I want to post a more beautiful post. Until the receptionist informed me about "In preparation for your appointment." I could not take any antihistamines for 5 days before the appointment. None. Zip. Nadda. Oh boy. I sipped this all morning. Around noon I realized, I felt pretty good! A quick google search shows that in fact it does!

The Life of a House: My Garden
http://thelifeofahouse.blogspot.com/2015/07/my-garden.html
The Life of a House. Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Man is a bundle of relations, a knot of roots,. Whose flower and fruitage is the world.". My garden is beautiful. I love spending time here. In light of my last post I thought I would elaborate. I am in my garden, enjoying a pleasant summer evening. There was a brief rain storm right before I was supposed to leave work, and now, while the air is humid, there is a wonderful breeze and it feels very comfortable. In my garden, I have sunflowers. Lots of them.

The Life of a House. Friday, August 14, 2015. You might be in California if. You might be in California if by the end of the day it is 98°F and you are burning your bare feet even on the shady parts of the pavement. But when you wake up in the morning it is 68°F and you have to put a sweater on before going outside. If you are early enough you can smell the desert sage coming down from the hills. You might be in California if the first order of business is to go to El Cholo. I was am aaaaaa. In Philly he...

The Life of a House: December 2014

The Life of a House. Tuesday, December 30, 2014. Biting off more than I can chew - part 4. So close - so close to being finished! I put the "gimp" on yesterday. How do you like that for a final vocabulary word for 2014. Gimp is the pretty green stuff on the edging of the furniture to hide the ugly hardware that actually keep the fabric in place. In my case oodles of staples. This had to be the easiest part of the whole project. You just use a hot glue gun. As usual, I had plenty of help. Okay, it's not q...

The Life of a House. Saturday, June 20, 2015. I am in the Berkshires at Melanie's again. I took the train along the Hudson River to Albany and she picked me up there. Three hours of this view:. And don't even get me started on the leg room! So yes, here I am at Melanie and Doug's lovely home and I always show this view from the kitchen window:. This time, I thought I'd show a few alternate views. The back of the house from the back yard:. Melanie's parlsey, sage, rosemary and thyme garden:. Why am I here?

The Life of a House. Friday, July 17, 2015. My Garden and More Research. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. So this is interesting - a flower column. The ones on the side, between me and the Els are doing beautifully. It is such a joy to look out the second floor window in the morning and see the little pink and purple buds. This morning I went out to survey the garden and picked a bounty of cherry tomatoes. I just went out because I had a hankerin' for a green tomato frittata. I was barely dragg...
