We don't worry about barefoot bandits at our house...not with Scooter on the job!

Note: Tall Husband found Scooter in our city, via the Internet...thanks Cathy. He's the smartest little guy! Also, thanks to Linda and Cute Husband for all the puppy advice gained via their adorable Yorkie, Alessandro.

Houston Loves Great Cars

Tall Husband and I headed out this morning to the new venue for Houston Coffee and Cars December show.


Marq-E is the new, larger venue. The show has become so popular, Houston Coffee and Cars had to find a new place for showing off the rides.


Today's was the largest show ever. There must have been at least a thousand cars on display today...

If You Can't Take the Heat...Build a New Kitchen


That was our kitchen on the right.


The framing carpenters are at work at The Bunny Bungalow today. They are preparing the back of the bungalow for the new French doors. The demolition crew had previously removed the door and three windows. Tall Husband is fearless; I'm not! I feel as though the bungalow is bruised and bleeding.

Bungalow Demolition...or Don't Watch While They Make the Sausage.

Sometimes things have to get really ugly before you can make them beautiful...a concept that is frightening to me. Yesterday, a great crew showed up to begin demolition on The Bunny Bungalow's kitchen. I didn't have the courage to take a peek until today. Tall Husband keeps reassuring me that the entire process and the skill with which the job is being managed and executed is beautiful.


OMG!! I hope the cake didn't fall.

Decades of wall coverings are exposed during demolition. Walls do talk and they say, "Tacky, tacky, tacky!"
