5 Lessons We Can Learn From Lucy
Ever since I was a little girl, I Love Lucy has been one of my very favorite television shows. I have seen every single episode numerous times and have most of the seasons on DVD (must finish my collection!). Lucy was hilarious, spontaneous, courageous and so much more. Let’s take a look at a few…
Favorite Houses From Television and the Movies

Memory Lane Monday…Leave it to Beaver
