"A man's home is his wife's castle."
~Alexander Chase
The Living Room...
"Be grateful for the home you have,
knowing that at this moment,
all you have is all you need."
~ Sarah Ban Breathnach
In the Bathroom...
"Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful,
or believe to be beautiful."
~William Morris
And from the kitchen into the dining room...
"Home is a place not only of strong affections, but of entire unreserved; it is life's undress rehearsal, its backroom, its dressing room, from which we go forth to more careful and guarded intercourse, leaving behind us much debris of cast-off and everyday clothing."
~Harriet Beecher Stowe
Our calendar...
Looking *in*...
The Laundry Room...
"Home -- that blessed word, which opens to the human heart the most perfect glimpse of Heaven, and helps to carry it thither, as on an angel's wings."
~Lydia M. Child
