By Robyn

You Light Up My Heart Solar Valentine GiftA solar stake is at the center of this Valentine's gift, surrounded by a seasonally decorated towel, pot holder, and a pretty ribbon. A small box of chocolates accompanies this gift. Holding this Valentine's gift is reminiscent of receiving flowers and candy, but it is much more ;)

Shenandoah National Park Webcam

By littergitter

A snow covered forest high up on a mountain.Every morning, I get on the computer and go through my favorites. This web cam, located in Shanandoah National Park in Virginia, is one my favorites. There is only one view and I don't know how often it takes a picture during the day but I was able to copy and paste this photo on January 14 at noon.

Homemade Clam Chowder

By attosa

Homemade Clam Chowder in bread bowlI spent my birthday up in the San Francisco Bay area. Walking around town looking for a place to eat, I noticed the price of clam chowder had skyrocketed like mad. I skipped out on having some, but since the craving stuck, my mother and I decided to make it from scratch once I got home. It's not hard to do, and costs a fraction of the price marked at the restaurants. Bread bowl optional, but highly recommended!

I replaced the baseboard heater thermostat. It works fine, however the hall light switch across from the room with the outlet started turning on ceiling fan in bedroom next to blown outlet room and hall light wouldn't go on without fan switch being on, and then stopped working altogether.
