About Us

Sonoma County, California
We are two teachers in love who took on an enormous renovation project over three years ago. In the words of the inspector, "This house has been abused." When we're not educating young minds or working on our place, we are busy with many other interests. Dominic could blog with authority on the following topics: zombie infestations, home-brewing, origami, medieval recreation, and surfing. As for me, my blogging repertoire could include these topics: breastfeeding, guitar for the musically disinclined, bellydancing, and the quest for the perfect matzah ball. This is our story.

A Good Premarital Test




Remodeling a home requires lots of teamwork, communication, and flexibility. Dominic and I learned to make decisions together, to work toward our goals, and to maintain a sense of humor, and the process was enjoyable (though not easy). Our home project was even mentioned by the rabbi during our wedding ceremony, which got quite a laugh from everyone. Before you decide to spend the rest of your life with someone, I recommend taking on some sort of a big project together. If you don’t kill each other, then it must be true love.
