What are your favorite no-cook/low-cook recipes for summer?
  • I do a similar thing. it's essentially an open face onigiri in a bowl with leftovers like sliced cucumber, red peppers, celery, avocado, tuna mayo, furikake and pickled ginger (if we have any). I also like to put unagi sauce on top with sesame seeds.

    pretty versatile and tasty. I also like to make a breakfast version with eggs and bacon.

  • New House Flooring - Is solid wood still best?
  • When I bought my house, we bought surplus unfinished engineered oak flooring. It was a great deal and saved us over 50% vs buying from a flooring supplier directly. We stained it our preferred shade (a warm orange) and when the sun sets our rooms glow with the colors of a warm sunset. I honestly wouldn't trade the floor for anything else. It has a warm, vibrant and rich feeling throughout the house.

    Granted, the flooring is starting to show signs of wear and tear. We have a small dog and no kids so the damage is minimal but its something to consider. But in our case, we appreciate the minor weathering look. It makes our house have character and feel lived in.

    If you have kids, pets/animals and/or lots of foot traffic, it may make sense to have something more sturdy. Personally, our home is our sanctuary so we keep it pretty tip-top and we've never had more than 4 guests over at a time.

    You can't really beat the look of hardwood flooring, but its durability may not be great for your needs. For us its plenty durable. Something also to consider it that you can restore hardwood flooring back to its original glory pretty easily whereas other flooring may require a complete replacement.

    Good luck! Renovating a home can at times be challenging but making it truly your own is very rewarding.
