Halloween votives
Halloween is easily one of my favorite times of the year. Between the weather, leaves, etc.it's the best. Plus it's a great time for goofy craft stuff. Here's a pic of my votives/luminaries made w/ a cricut and vellum. They'll be great lining our walkway on Halloween.

With Affordability High, More Home Owners Supersize
With Affordability High, More Home Owners Supersiz
This article confirms what I've already witnessed: homeowners who can, will. Those who are not too terribly underwater and have the means are taking advantage of this down market and purchasing a larger home. Though the trend for some time was to get away from larger homes with unnecessary space (especially those located in the exurbs) there seems to be a bit of a reversal. Taking advantage now makes great sense from a dollars perspective. But there is potentially a price to pay in terms of quality of life (IMO).

I haven't been a very good little poster as of late, given the new job, etc. But with the change of seasons comes renewed enthusiasm for blogging and getting out there. Real estate is a passion of mine and I love to share what I know about it! Be sure to check out my Pinterest boards, including a board dedicated to Cleveland goodies. Ta ta!

I love a lot of space, but it would be disappointing to see buyers going back to the McMansions of days of yore.

It's the Year of the Dragon this year, and Cleveland's Asian community will be celebrating this weekend. Check out the various activities taking place in MidTown, and check out the public art displays of dragons all over the city. (I will miss the rabbits, however).

The Wine Spot opens on Lee Road - The Heights Observer
The Wine Spot opens on Lee Road - The Heights Observer
Tooting my own horn for a second, my husband's company Monroe Constructs just completed the renovation of Seitz Agin on Lee Road to The Wine Spot, a fabulous new addition to an already hopping Cedar/Lee neighborhood. The grand opening was recently covered in the Heights Observer. Check the space out if you are in the area. They have a fabulous selection of beer as well.

Sometimes they hate us, sometimes they love us...
and this time Forbes is acknowledging that University Circle is one of America's prettiest neighborhoods. Makes me think of Wade Oval Wednesdays in the summer, which is not easy to do in the middle of this nasty snowstorm we're having!
