My Pinwheel tart



I made it! I made this tart i've been thinking about for months.








Its not very big as you can see...but it was a nice little treat for me.
It kinda reminds me of a home made apple pie..but its pear instead. It was good.
oh and I used those brown lookin' pears b/c they are sweeter...but you can try what you will.

Are you painting?


Well if you are or ever will in the future...here is a helpful tip.
In each room(you paint), place a piece of painters tape on the back of an outlet cover with the names and number of the paint colors you used for that room. That way if you ever need to remember the name of the paint, for whatever reason, you'll know it!

Laundry tips you should know




  • you should leave the lid on the washer open after every wash to prevent mold and mildew.(most likely for states with humidity)


  • Turn your good jeans inside out so they don't fade. Do the same with clothes made from corduroy or velour to repel lint.


  • Utilize small mesh laundry bags made for lingerie to keep all those teeny baby socks in one place. etc.


  • use a scoop or two of oxi-clean with the soak cycle: awesome stain buster!
