    The “All of My Heart” Farmhouse

    ‘ It seems that every time I turn around lately, I come across someone who is obsessed with Hallmark Channel made-for-television movies. First it was my grandma, who couldn’t stop talking about them at Christmas.  Around that same time, I started hearing about the flicks from my uncle’s girlfriend, who binge-watches them like crazy, much…

    The “Date Night” House

    ‘ Last night, the Grim Cheaper and I sat down to watch the movie Date Night which FINALLY came out on DVD this week.  We somehow missed seeing the flick in theatres when it first came out in April and I have been not-so-patiently waiting for it to be released on DVD ever since.  Especially…
