Same thing happened to me with plastic sandwich bags. I KNEW they were wasteful, but they were convenient, so I didn't try very hard not to use them, until I ran out. I went for like two weeks with...

Ditto the tinsel stories. I never even knew my cat ate it until I saw it coming out the other end. Ew. I also stopped putting glass ornaments on the tree since they do bat off an orna...

I always wonder, how much energy do you really save by not drying if you then have to iron most of your clothes? It's got to make a bit of a difference. And since I despise ironing, we...

VioletVeil - I have a 45 pint LG (purchased from Home Depot) that's been going for over four years now, despite my not-so-great upkeep on it. Who knew dehumidifiers should be taken apart and cleane...

I found it at my local grocery store several months ago and haven't noticed a difference between it and the other foil I was buying.

Thanks for sharing, these are fascinating.

I think this list is helpful, I don't know why but I haven't been composting expired bread, cereal, grains, etc. Duh. Tere are some things on this list I'm not too sure of, like pet fo...

Lovely. Plus, your island provides great inspiration for my kitchen remodel (which so far is only happening in my head), I've rarely seen something that small that looks that nice and finished.

Thanks for a new idea, I'm sick of stir-fried zucchini. becmd - I'm so glad you posted the link to the zucchini oven chips! I made them tonight and they were delish!

Method dish soap works well for me and smells great.

Hells no. This is the kind of clutter/crap decorating that my mom does and it annoys the crap out of me.

Your home is extremely gorgeous! I only wish my home could look so clean and uncluttered some day.

I'm staining my deck. Actually it's almost done, I cleaned it Thursday night and spent four hours staining last night. There's just a bit to touch up today since I ran out of light. It will be nice...

Umm, can I use the nice weather as an excuse? I've definitely been slacking on the cleaning. I've made myself AWESOME breakfasts this weekend, but cleaning, umm, not so much. I'm going to go tackle...

Excellent style and no tacky OSU gear in sight. ;) I still can't believe this is in Columbus. I'd give you two thumbs up if I could.

I love your kitchen, especially that great clock!

Kjekke fint! (hopefully I remembered that right, it's been awhile) I really love your home, it's so fresh, clean and yet still cosy.

I love your space, it looks very cozy AND stylish at the same time. Two thumbs, way up on this one!

Does anyone by any chance have more pictures of the first kitchen? Not only am I in lurve with it, but from what I can see, the layout is quite close to my kitchen (which needs some reno love). I'v...

I can totally understand hating bagless. I've always had bags before, but my vac was dying and my boyfriend found a deal on a Eureka bagless. It works so much better than my old dirt devil that I a...
