Preston Hollow
At 1272 square feet, this precious little angel at 6027 Anita Street is a far cry from a 10,000 Preston Hollow manse and the Lepperts would sure miss that wild and crazy media room, no? You want to talk downsizing? How about two bedrooms, one bath, a great M Streets location in the Stonewall Jackson…
Every girl dreams of having her own little private castle, where she can steal away the days and nights and live life like a prince or princess.
If you never outgrew that dream, this is the house for you! With wrought-iron finishes, shabby-chic details, cute little windows everywhere, and staircases where you can let your hair down while waiting for Prince Charming, 6340 Brookshire Drive in Waggoner place is the perfect home for a storybook lifestyle.

What’s harder than being a new mom? Being a new mom and having to answer, “What’s for dinner?” every evening, even when I’m tired and uninspired.
I have a feeling Katie Workman, author of The Mom 100 Cookbook (Workman Publishing, $16.95), was in my spot before. In fact, I am almost certain this very same situation is what spawned this amazing cookbook that is full of kid-friendly recipes that won’t bore adults to death.
