Funny story about the table. My HH is just the opposite. He would buy EVERYTHING I would say ” I like that “. I leave him home when I treasure hunt or we would be in the poor house.
Marie says
Mattress? Oh, do tell what brand? We need to do this & despise shopping for another one. Tried the “return after 100 nights” in the box ones but only lasted 30 nights before returning. So many options
Katherine says
Marie – Go try out the sleep number beds. We bought one when they were still called Select Comfort for almost 18 years. We didn’t get a top of the line or one of the fancy ones but we love it and have never had a problem with anything breaking. Well worth the time to investigate and try one out.
Lace Faerie says
We had a select comfort bed for 18 years, but last 5 yrs we were pretty uncomfortable. We went to a purple.com mattress with an adjustable base and it has made an absolutely life-changing difference in my morning pain and quality of sleep! 10 thumbs up! It’s definitely not a bargain mattress, but I can actually sleep in the zero-gravity position and awaken without my arthritic hips and spine screaming with can’t-breathe-in-deep pain! It seems they have free sheets or pillow promos around the major holidays.

Thank you, Mavis, for posting the Kindle book EatWell Vegetables. I’ve been enjoying it, and it is making me crave my garden vegetables . . . can’t wait for the soil to warm up so I can get planting!
Mavis Butterfield says
Me too. I am ready for Spring!
