I’ll be the first person to admit to my love affair with hot water. I love a long shower or a good soak more than your average joe, and I’m thrilled by every new big kid bath toy that comes along. I’m especially excited about hydrotherapy shower panels, which are fast becoming both prevalent and […]

Have you ever wandered out into a summer rain? I don’t mean getting stuck in a downpour without an umbrella or trudging home in a storm. I’m talking about stepping outside and turning your face up to the falling water. I have, and I love the feeling! So you can imagine how excited I was […]
