The Domestic WIFE: Sheet Spray

The Good Home Co. Sheet and Clothing Spray

I luckily discovered The Good Home Co.’s Sheet and Clothing Spray last month and am happy to reveal this is one product every WIFE should never be without! This spray is a more advanced, sophisticated and high quality version of Febreeze. Simply use this fragrant spray on sheets, pillow cases (try lavender as a natural sleep enhancer) to release a delightful scent through out your home. Also wonderful to refresh clothing as the formula won’t stain the most delicate fabrics.

Mint Love Social Club

 Natalie Xanthakis is only a newlywed and already the wife of all wives, planning the picture perfect dinner party and creating her own tasty recipes. She started her must read blog Mint Love Social Club in February of 2011 as a creative outlet to showcase some of her favorite home decor, recipes, DIY projects and party planning tips. One of the first regular posts she started was a cocktail post  every Friday with a new recipe each week for her readers. That weekly post grew out of the tradition that her and her  husband didn’t have any plans on a Friday night, they would head to the grocery store and spend the night in trying out different cocktail recipes.  See her cocktail concoction below created just for THE WIFE. – Taryn Cox for THE WIFE

Restaurant Etiquette: Black Napkins

6 years ago I’ll never forget attending a brunch at The Four Seasons and the attentive waiter asking me if I would prefer a white or a black napkin. I looked at him quizzically and asked why I was given a choice.
