Most home bakers know that pizza stones are ideal for obtaining a rustic hearth-style crust on breads and dough. There are many commercially manufactured pizza stones available on the market, however, the rustic baker did not start at the kitchen supply store, and neither must you. Sometimes you can find these at the Restore for a fraction of the cost of commercial baking tiles!

I read this article on www. kidshealth.org and Wanted to share it with you! With all the things going on in the world all kids here today is “Global Warming” and “Going Green” and this often leaves them feeling confused and helpless. Volunteering is a great way to teach kids that they can literally change the world.

At least I hope so. As the weather warms from spring to summer I have already been running around outside plotting out our family garden, pulling weeds, and watching a rabbit nest in our yard.

This greenhouse is 2400mm wide x 3000mm long. It is lightweight, portable (can be fixed more permanently if required), inexpensive and easy to construct.
