Today I am making pizza, using a tin that is over 50 years old. Actually, it's as old as me! My mother had bought a cake for my first birthday party from a place called Sweetheart Bakery. You put a deposit on the tin for a couple of dollars, but most everyone kept them instead of getting their deposit back because they are just the greatest pans in the world.

Some new pictures to put on the wall in the dining room. I would love some advice on how to arrange them!!

The new floor is pretty but this is the mess we're in. I can't put anything back in the kitchen until I sweep and wash the floor and can't do THAT until the grout dries enough

This was 3:30PM, driving south on 390 into one of the worst storms I had ever driven through. Blinding rain, crazy lightning, crashing thunder, just awful!

Here is the new kitchen floor getting its grout between the tiles. We had very good workers install it. They are from Christie Carpet.

This is the light from our back door in our kitchen. It's also the last picture of our old kitchen floor. The new one goes in on Friday!
