Remodelaholic in Review: February 2014
And March is here! I know March is supposed to be “in like a lion, out like a lamb” but we have already been having so much beautiful weather here, that I’m not sure whether the lion will be snowy or a heat wave! We’ve had a fabulous month spending some family time, celebrating birthdays, taking trips, and doing the normal family things — laundry, fixing squeaky floors… the norm. 🙂 (You can catch all of the daily life snippets I post over on Instagram @remodelaholic.)
Here on the blog, we showed you some beautiful new wood flooring and gave you some tips for installing it.
And then we traveled around a bit and stopped by over at Wayfair to share some twists on our favorite comfort foods and some delicious chocolate recipes.

Lorene has been behind the scenes here at Remodelaholic for more than a decade! She believes that planning projects and actually completing them are two different hobbies, but that doesn't stop her from planning at least a dozen projects at any given time. She spends her free time creating memories with her husband and 5 kids, traveling as far as she can afford, and partaking of books in any form available.
