Light Smights

On to more decisions.  While it is so fun making all these decisions for our new kitchen, it is also super overwhelming & exhausting. 

I just got an e-mail that Rejuvenation's Portland Store is having a sale over Labor day in their clearance section.  This of course got me thinking about all the things on my...
