Yesterday, over a couple of heated cups of coffee, brainstorming happened for the Mr. and me as we discussed our current stages of the work in progress. The discussion was a slightly scary kind of one, ultimately determining who's the boss of this project, me, or Mr., or the countertop. We were just a couple… Continue reading It’ll fit, won’t it?
