Looking for a CMS for Casa del Mango

I think it is time that http://www.casadelmango.com got a face-lift as well as a new CMS so my wife can update the site without having to come to me.

I'm not sure what to use, though. I've tried Wordpress, which (by far) would be the easiest but the templates don't seen too good (I've thrown up a start to a WP site at http://www.casadelmango.info but it's not looking too good).

Does anyone have any suggestions? Joomla or Drupal? I think those might be a little beyond my wife for updating. We're looking to keep the site close to the .com - especially when you click on "dogs" (to the left) with the extra navigation bar,

She knows no HTML or any programming and was wondering about using a WYSIWYG editor but I think they just add too much "junk" into the code.

That looks interesting - I just downloaded it and a bunch of modules. I'll give it a try later on.

I think Joomla would be too much for my wife - she'd still run to me for every little update

Yes, but look at the .info site - that is what it would look like w/ WP. Not sure if that's what she wants. Well, maybe I could set up a separate page for each dog?
