     I thought it might be fun to post pictures of the bits and pieces of my house.  Well, not my house really, but some of the things in my house that I love.  Since we’re just getting to know each other and all.  I mean, seriously, the inside of a person’s house says a lot about [...]

     I’ve got a quick and easy Finish This Sentence Friday for you.  Here goes:
     When it comes to ____________, the place I live has the market cornered.
