The Movies I Have Been Watching In Anticipation For Valentine’s Day

For Lovers Only is a 2011 romance film produced by the Polish brothers and Sean O'Grady. The brothers also had different roles in the film, with Michael as director and Mark as writer and also actor himself.

In the film, Katic plays Sofia, a journalist and former model, while Polish plays Yves, a former fashion photographer.

FOR LOVERS ONLY is a story of a MAN and a WOMAN in love. After seeing each other for the first time in years while on separate work assignments in Paris, the LOVERS flee together and travel by train, car and motorcycle, as their love affair takes them across France-from Normandy to St. Tropez.

The final outcome of the affair is left open to interpretation.

Ruggable Review

We finally decided to try Ruggable in our kitchen as the space needs a good runner. This area gets a ton of action from almost daily cooking, washing dishes, and an area the pups love to lounge! The runner we had was too thick and hard to vacuum so it just never felt clean. ( and wasn’t clean)

Three Cheese Quiche Recipe

Most quiches start with three basic ingredients: a pie crust, heavy cream (or half and half), and eggs. From there you could go in many directions with meats, veggies, and cheeses.

Tuscan Bean Soup Recipe -Slow Cooker Recipe

I’ve always been extremely fond of bean soups this time of year! And my very favorite bean soup of all is this Slow Cooker Tuscan Bean Soup. I’ve been making variations of this soup for a few years but this version was my absolute favorite! I think this soup is so delicious because I use my slow cooker. Those hours of cooking help the flavors meld together. The vegetables are very tender, the beans are soft and creamy, and because the greens are added at the end, they don’t end up overcooked.

Misc. Closet Organization With Uashmama

Rodge totally has a junk drawer on a grand scale which has turned into what I call a miscellaneous closet or a catchall closet. And in classic junk drawer form, it's notoriously difficult to tidy up, especially when it’s not my clutter to tidy up! (well one little area is my stuff..I must admit)

Rodge is also a classic Cancer who cannot let go of anything. But one day….I just simply could not let this go on any longer. It would just give me so much anxiety and I decided to gift him a new organized catchall closet!

(here is what this catchall closet looked like)
