DIY a SAHD can do-refinish a tub, tile or sink
A bathtub that is chipping paint is not a good thing. Structurally the tub is sound, but its outward appearance is screaming for a makeover. If only chipped paint tasted like popcorn and weren’t somewhat of a hazard then there would be no problem. However, in reality, chipped paint exposes the surface which can then honestly degrade the quality of the tub. Continue reading DIY a SAHD can do-refinish a tub, tile or sink

Daddy Mojo at the movies: Cars 2
PIXAR has a high bar. No other movie company has such a consistently high bar to jump over for any of their releases. Cars was a good movie, but not a great movie, especially when looked at through the prism of what people expect from PIXAR.

Week 22-Mom and Dad your baby is the size of a papaya!
Moms, your little person inside you is the size of a papaya! Dads, to put his in perspective, the next time you’re in the fruit and vegetable isle of your grocery store look for a papaya. A papaya is one of those strange foods that is both fruit and vegetable. It looks like a really large lemon with just a hint of dark green in some spots.
I’m in the store at least three times a week and aren’t sure if I’ve ever seen one. There is a section in the fruit isle with all sorts of strange things, it could be in there, but some of them scare me. It’s the island of lost toys for fruits: there’s the brown, sickle shaped thick thing with thorns and somewhere in there is probably the papaya. Unless your name is Gilligan or Beyr Grills you probably have no idea what a papaya is or how to eat one. Continue reading Week 22-Mom and Dad your baby is the size of a papaya!
