Home is where the heart is, and the kitchen is the heart of the home. Just as food nurtures the mind, body and soul…the kitchen is the place where meals are prepared with love, on-the-go and for snack time. People gather there during parties and gatherings for conversation, taste tests and memory-making. For all these reasons your kitchen cabinets are one of the most important choices when renovating. Your cabinetry should provide the perfect balance of function, style and inspiration.
Get ready for cooler temperatures and a cozy home by first getting your chimney and dryer vent cleaned. Debris like birds’ nests and leaves, and creosote could be lingering as potential fire hazards in your chimney. As for your dryer vent, lint doesn’t just accumulate in your lint trap; it can also build up in your dryer vents. As most of us know, this lint is extremely flammable; it is the build-up of this lint that can lead to dryer fires.
As you start to make plans for the holiday meals, remember to shop Honey Baked Ham at 61st and Memorial in Tulsa for ham, turkey, and a wide assortment of side dishes along with dessert.

By definition, a harbor is a place where vessels may go to find shelter from the rough waters. Nestled in rural northern Claremore, Hope Harbor serves just such a purpose, helping families to find shelter from the sometimes rough waters of life, to heal, and to move forward from trauma or other difficulties. Among those who help facilitate that recovery are Dirk O’Donnell and Stephanie Steward.
