Creamy Tomato Tortellini Soup

In the winter time I'm really big on soups, my husband cringes every time I say we're having soup for dinner.  This Creamy Tomato Tortellini Soup is a hearty happy medium for both of us, his pasta preference and my soup preference, and is absolutely perfect for a chilly evening.

9 Secrets to a pro-quality paint job

Over the past month, we've been selecting and testing paint for our house.  We've narrowed down some choices, now the debate is if we're going to tackle the painting ourselves or hire some professionals.

When we moved in our house, our Realtor gave us a copy of This Old House Magazine for Prudential Spring 2013 with a great article on how to achieve a pro-quality paint job, find it here.  Armed with these tips and others from that issue I'm leaning more towards us tackling the project ourselves.  Do you have any fun tips that helped you get thought a paint job?
