A Weekend In New Orleans With Kids

Since our travel guides to Charleston with kids and Palm Springs with kids have elicited requests for more travel ideas with kids, we’re back with an overdue recap of our 3-night trip to New Orleans. We’d never been to The Big Easy before and were impressed by how family-friendly the city is. It’s not all booze, beads, and Bourbon Street! So here’s a look at where we stayed, what we did, and what we’re excited to do next time we go back – because we will definitely go back!

The four of us (well, five if you count our chihuahua!) went to NOLA for 3 nights in November of 2022. At the time, our kids were 8 and 12 years old. So unfortunately we can’t vouch for our suggestions being a good fit for toddlers or younger children. Although I’m sure ours would’ve loved the Louisiana Children’s Museum and Storyland playground back in the day!

Easy Low-Light Indoor Plants

I used to think every houseplant needed a sunny corner or bright windowsill to thrive. But it turns out many of our favorite go-to houseplants do just fine in shady corners and low-light locations. So before you write off your house as too dark to sustain plant life, check out this list of the best indoor plants for low light. You might be surprised at how many good options there are!

Our upstairs family room is the brightest room we’ve ever owned thanks to big unobstructed windows on all 4 sides. But most of our indoor plants live downstairs, where we get far less natural light. Luckily, that hasn’t stopped us from growing our collection of happy healthy houseplants.

9 Houseplants That Don’t Need A Lot Of Light

Here are our favorite low-light indoor plants. We list a lot more info on them below, but here’s a quick list to bring on your next trip to the plant store:

1. Snake Plant
2. ZZ Plant
3. Pothos
4. Heartleaf Philodendron
5. English Ivy
6. Aglaonema
7. Cast Iron Plant
8. Monstera
9. Parlor Palm

Perhaps our favorite part of this list is that these aren’t ugly “consolation plants” that people begrudgingly buy for dark homes.

VIDEO: Planting Native Rhododendrons with Summer Rayne Oakes🌿🌼🌸

In this informative video, Summer Rayne Oakes from Flock Finger Lakes discusses the significance of reintroducing native plants into our green spaces. She focuses on planting native rhododendrons and shares valuable tips on how to create the ideal growing conditions for these beautiful plants.

Summer emphasizes the importance of soil preparation when planting rhododendrons. To ensure the soil has the proper pH level, she recommends using Espoma Organic Soil Acidifier. This product helps to amend and lower the pH of native soil, creating a more suitable environment for acid-loving plants like rhododendrons.

In addition to adjusting the soil pH, Summer suggests improving soil structure by applying Espoma Organic Land & Sea Gourmet Compost. This compost is rich in nutrients and organic matter, which helps to promote healthy root growth and overall plant vitality.

By following Summer’s expert advice and using these high-quality Espoma Organic products, gardeners can successfully plant and cultivate native rhododendrons in their green spaces. Reintroducing native plants not only adds beauty to our gardens but also supports local ecosystems and biodiversity.

How To Remove Wallpaper: 4 Proven Methods

Wallpaper has made a big comeback as a trendy home design choice. But despite its resurgence, there are still plenty of us dealing with dingy, dated, or downright ugly old wallpaper we don’t want. In our old home, we had to remove wallpaper in so many rooms: the kitchen, the dining room, the foyer, and two different bathrooms! As we traveled from room to room removing wallpaper, we tested 4 different methods, and today we’ll share what we learned.
