Frozen

You only see what your eyes want to see.  How can life be what you want it to be?  You're frozen, when your heart's not open.  You're so consumed with how much you get.  You waste your time with hate and regret.  You're broken, when your heart's not open.

Prepackaged Hot Udon Noodles

I love quick and easy noodles soups and I love it from anywhere: restaurants, friend's house, prepackaged, etc.  I'm not picky about the type of noodles either.  Any type of noodle will work, even spaghetti noodles.  What matters to me is flavor.  I won't eat it if I can't stand the flavor no matter how...

Home Theaters & Ceiling Beams

Husband and I have been contemplating a home theater in our unfinished basement.  We got the idea when we went house hunting about 5 years ago.  We never even knew such a thing existed before then, but after seeing them, we knew it was something we wanted.  I've looked online and saw some really neat...

First Sign of Tulips and Orchids Using 55-200mm Lens

Spring is officially here! Well, actually the first day of spring was on Sunday, the 20th.  Last fall husband planted a bunch of tulips down both sides of the driveway.  Within the last few weeks I've checked both sides and didn't see any sign of the tulips coming through.  I got worried thinking maybe husband...
