This weekend when we weren’t working on the bathroom - yes, we actually worked! - we watched the DVD of the British public television reality/living-history show 1900 House. At $30.99, it’s expensive for one DVD, but I figured as a resident of a bit-past-1900 house, we needed to see it.

I get 52 new addictions a year, one for each week - sometimes more. This week it’s Kaboodle.

There were more adults there than children, though we went at the respectable hour of 7 p.m. I heard the group of 40-somethings beside us discussing spells and the teens behind us on our […]

Something is severely wrong with a person who leaves the fabulous Biltmore mansion raving about the bathrooms. Other people on the tour starting zooming past the bathrooms by the time we got to the fourth floor, but I still lingered over each one, admiring every last detail.
Sure, the massive banquet hall and oval bedrooms […]
