We just finished taping an episode of Today’s Homeowner on remodeling a bathroom in my home, which gives me a chance to get Scott Gardner, our director and executive producer, in front of the camera for a change. And if you look closely, you can see our cameraman, Brad Rodgers, in the mirror.

On the Road

I’m at the home of the Today’s Dream Kitchen Sweepstakes winner on a cold December day in Michigan. Next, I’m going on to Chicago for meetings then doing a segment for the CBS Early Show on fire safety that will air Thursday, December 23rd. It should be interesting, so be sure to watch.

Make Recycling Easy

Danny's Blog, Green Home, Video by Danny Lipford

Recycling is a great way to cut down on waste and help the environment, but the key is to make it easy so you’ll remember to do it. We recycle all our waste here at our office.

To make it easy, I keep three wastebaskets in my office, one for paper, one for cans and bottles, and one for any waste that can’t be recycled. So if you aren’t already recycling at work and at home, give it a try, just be sure to remember to make it easy!

Handy Andy Tool Kit Collection

Danny's Blog, Tools & Hardware, Video by Danny Lipford

Several years ago I started collecting old Handy Andy tool kits, like the one I had growing up. I now have over 20 of them on a shelf in my office, ranging from the 1950s to the 1970s, and they really bring back memories. I purchased most of them from eBay for $10 to $20 or received them as gifts. Some have never been used and are in perfect condition while others have seen a lot of use.

Getting Ready for Thanksgiving

I’m looking forward to taking some time off to spend with my family on Thanksgiving. It’s been hard at times to find things to be thankful for over the past year, but they’re out there. I hope you and your family have a great Thanksgiving.
