Well done, Jane. My son is also a fireman.

HGTV's Curb Appeal crew would add a stone patio in front of the steps, an inviting bench, a winding path to the street, limb up the cypress, add flowering trees to soften each corner of the house, paint the trim to emphasize architectural lines and the front door in a bright companion color, place l...

My mom had a Viking and I loved sewing with it. My old Necchi is plenty good enough for the little sewing I do. Once, the seams on my son's pop-up camper came apart and he mounted my floor model machine onto a dolly perched up on the pick up truck in his yard and he slid it along while I sewed up th...
