Welcome

I love cooking food and decorating spaces. I have spent many years learning and refining my skills for the things I am so passionate about. With my blog I want to share suggestions, tips and ideas with hopes to inspire you to become a savvy host and house proud yourself. I am passionate about anything food and home decor and have always thought that the two go hand in hand. My background is Italian and I get my inspirations for food from a family of great cooks. I love to experiment with old favorites and add my own touch to make it new, lighter and healthier. I love coming up with new dishes by just looking in the fridge and using up whatever is in there that day. Some of my best dinner parties were simple foods prepared with passion and the right ambiance and then share it with really great people . I would welcome any comments, ideas or questions.

DIYs must have this app

With so many apps available I go nuts when there is a really good free one that will actually be so very useful almost every day. My new favorite is The Home Depot app. A cousin of mine alerted me on this one, he knows how often I renovate and make numerous trips to home depot and so does he.

A must have for anyone and especially DIYs, this app has everything from A-Z. Numerous project videos so you can see how to, quick tips and Product demos. You can select the store of your choice and view products in stock with price lists. There is a handy toolbox with cool measuring devices and conversion charts, calculators etc. eFlyers and help buttons.

The most fun thing of all is the bar code scanner, my husband made a trip to Home Depot just to try that out. He was like a kid in the candy store, it was a funny site to see. No more notes on pieces drywall or 2x4s you can simply write your list on the same app.

Sometimes I curse at how fast technology is going because I have to keep up but then you get something cool like a helpful app and it gets exciting even for me.

Pass a great app to a friend and share the feeling. Thanks Paul :)
