I feel terrible for the folks here who are dealing with unemployment. I feel even worse for the ones who have kids to support. It may be character building to cope with it, but I susp...

A fourteen year old boy's wet dream.

Has anyone tried those Debby Meyer Green Bags for preserving fresh fruits and vegetables? Do they work?

I love yellow walls in a kitchen. Kitchens are so broken up with cabinets and appliances, it would be hard for the yellow to become overwhelming. It's sunny and cheerful.

The "after" is so much better than the "before". The before looks like the bathroom Elvis Presley died in.

Mine belonged to my grandmother. For something that must be at least sixty years old, it still slices and egg or tomato just fine.

Proving once again that tobacco is bad for you, you can use tobacco to kill them. Take the tobacco from two cigarettes and put it into a cup of boiling water. When it cools, take th...

When I lived near Chicago, my car had to be tested every year for pollutants. In the rural area I live in now, it never has to be tested. That part's not good, but it speaks to the quality of the...

The almost 90 years old widower next door has a patch of rhubarb that his wife planted and used for pies. The rhubarb should be about ready for cutting sometime this week and he has offered it to ...

I'm most decidedly female and I want that as my retreat.

That first shower curtain looks terrifying. Like it is going to suffocate or drown you. Not in my house.

Every single poster has made an excellent point for what they do or don't do. My system works best by doing meal planning. I shop every other week, unless there is something stupendou...

That row of frosty jugs looks so refreshing!

It is practical. Large enough to hold soup or a portion for lunch, but small enough to fit in my lunch container. It has the blue thing on top that you can pop to let steam vent whe...

On the other hand, the price per pound for recycled materials has plummeted. For a while last spring, the local sheltered workshop paid out $.64 a pound for aluminum cans. Now, they are paying ou...

I've found that reusable containers meet my needs for most storage. I have some plastic wrap in my house, but only use it when I make soap to wrap it as gifts. I use lidded roasting...

I like how you attached the pots to the side of the cabinet and gained additional storage with easy access. Well done, even for a temporary arrangement. I hope that you will get the s...

Urinal gone wild was my first thought.

I rather liked the "before" kitchen. But then, I really love white cabinets and don't care for red, except as an accent color.

A good ham, scalloped potatoes, whatever fresh vegetable appeals to me at the grocery store, homemade bread, and carrot cake.
