I went to a daycare that had one of these when I was about 3-1/2 or 4, and I remember having a *blast* playing "grocery store." I really, really wanted one at home.
I did a large part of the food for our wedding last year myself, with help from my Mom, Aunt and Mother-in-Law. We had a few things catered in, but they were pretty supplementary to the stuff we m...
I think eating more healthfully and adding variety are really two different things, though they can certainly be done at the same time. For adding variety, one important thing to remember is that ...
So are there any commercial brands that are actually semi-freshly-squeezed? Sometimes it's just not practical to squeeze your own, or spend $8 for a half-gallon of juice squeezed at the store.
Olive cheese puffs! There are tons of recipes online, but it's basically shredded cheddar cheese, flour, butter and a bit of paprika made into a dough, then shaped around green olives and baked. ...
This is my absolute favorite food, and possibly my husband's as well--we eat these too often, and we are very, very happy people. My trick is to only bake enough cookie dough for a couple sandwich...
If anyone decides to make those tea sandwiches (they look so lovely!) I would suggest doing an open-faced version (very classic Danish lunch food, eaten with a knife and fork). Two slices of that ...
I use the paste pictured, and I LOVE it. As Ms. Button said, it is packed with seeds, and has such a wonderful vanilla flavor that I've been known to lick the measuring spoon after I've used it. ...
I just figured out a much easier way to do this last week: lay the parchment across the top of the pan, and run your scissors along the parchment/wax paper where it meets the top edge of the pan. ...
The mismatched tables look like a sad mistake, but the robin's egg blue chairs are just lovely. I also like the hanging over the table in that pic- it's fun and a bit inspiring, even though I woul...
Perhaps in a climate where it was sunny most of the time this could be livable, but I can't imagine enjoying this apartment during the long, very grey Scandinavian winters.
Another vote for a shade of copper-patina-green on the walls, with cream/ivory trim. I think using more copper in the room (on the sink, trim, hardware, etc.) could start to look too theme-y, thou...
As an "Isabelle," I find this "no names starting with I"-rule highly objectionable.
I'm also a fan of Ingrid and Ilse, which are apparently not hipster names yet but probably will be b...

This might be more appetizing if it didn't look exactly like a bag of blood.
I'm curious how often a couple with two small children will have all 8 of those pillows on their bed.

What a fabulous kitchen. I'm particularly smitten with the stove.

THANK YOU! I was just trying to juice key limes the other day and getting quite frustrated. What a great idea!

I made bagels for the first time last week, and was blown away by how easy and delicious they were.

Ridiculous.

I make these stuffed with goat cheese instead of almonds, and they are unbelievable.
