It’s not quite full-blown summer here in Tucson, but with 90 degrees in this week’s forecast I figured I’d share one of my favorite staples for warmer weather – cutoffs. They are simple, and CHEAP.

Award for easiest adjustment to the move goes tooooooooo….. Caroline! Quite a few of you have asked for an update on how she’s doing, so I figured it was about time for a little Caro update. (Our last Caroline update is here, and here’s the story about her adoption.) Over the past week, she has…
