I am the proud new owner of an Eiki Overhead Projector!
I scored it at a school auction for $5.00.
Oh yes, I got a serious eye roll from the Mr. when I staggered in carrying this thing in both arms.
I realize I'm no Van Gough but I knew my Eiki could help me fake it.
As you may remember, this is my new chalkboard, pantry barn door...
In a house full of four men, we're currently working on manners at the dinner table (a lifetime endeavor I'm sure). So I printed some manners on a
