A Great find.....






... is this hands free soap dispenser from Lysol




it is rather inexpensive and there are lot of coupons


the only thing that bothered me is to buy the refill bottles


they are small and rather expensive.


I tried to remove the bottom part and refill it, but that did not work.


Here is my solution.



I used my dremel tool to cut out a hole on top of the refill and capped it

with a part of a dish soap bottle cap.



it works great and I can refill it with any soap I want.

now I'm using one dispenser for dish soap and one for hand soap in the kitchen.

with rechargable batteries it is even more.eco friendly.

The count down is on!!




Two more days until we are getting the keys for our new home.


There is so much to be done.


This weekend we bought all new appliances.


I'm so glad, my great husband bought me the LG gas range

I always wanted.

Stainless steel, 5 burners, large capacity,self cleaning.
I'll be doing a lot of cooking and baking.



This is a "before" picture of the kitchen

We are replacing the microwave with a hood.

all appliances are sainless steel.

the counter top will be granite.

the cabinets are being painted white.
new door hardware.
The list is long and this is just the kitchen.
I hope you all have a great week.
