I had the best experience at Westside Tile and Stone, Inc. and wanted to share

“I randomly wondered into this 9300 square foot award winning showroom last summer to find an entire team of experienced in-house designers that were willing to help me find what I needed. They represent 250+ different suppliers of exquisite tile and stone materials. They have earned a reputation for its vast selection, superb customer service, and technical knowledge. They can turn even the smallest bathrooms/kitchens into marvelous creations. The store has all setting materials and tools needed for all types of installations; commercial or residential, as well as an extensive list of licensed contractors that have been working with them for 15+ years. I HIGHLY recommend!” ~Jen Levinson

Your Jr. Chef can make Buttermilk-Lemon Chess Pie

Not certain how this rich, eggy custard pie got its name – it has nothing to do with the game of chess. Recipe gives practice zesting lemons, separating egg whites/yolks and making a pie crust for either sweet or savory use (see ww crust alt below). Remember, the science of making crusts calls for cold butter and ice water… the warmth of fingers makes for a bad crust!  Note: know that if you use regular salted butter, you must omit the ‘fine salt,’ and pie dough can be made ahead of time and kept refrigerated/frozen. Parental supervision.

Here’s a whole wheat pie crust that’s simple, flaky, mild-flavored and easy to work with. Page has a bonus link to homemade pop tarts.

Most of the time, buttermilk is sold in quarts. What to do with a partial container? Here’s a “conversation” with lots of good ideas and links and a page with tips for storing, using, substituting buttermilk with recipe links. There’s also shelf-stable buttermilk powder available.

How Luludew Organic Diapers are Paving the Way Towards the Cloth Diaper Comeback Trend

Since the 80’s, disposable diapers have been the way to go; though this is dissipating as eco-conscious values are erupting. Hence, cloth diapers are making a comeback, which is what Sandy Barajas; founder of Luludew Organic Diaper Service is counting on. After the birth of her child, she realized that there was a need for cloth diaper laundering services for busy parents who wanted a better solution. In 2010, Luludew was born. “We print materials on recycled paper, launder with biodegradable soap, deliver in energy-efficient routes, & package our diapers in re-usable cloth bags” says Sandy. With 4 diapering options available, Sandy’s saved over 1 million diapers from entering landfills!
