If you're lucky enough to be in Tucson and looking for paint, you could stop by the Citron showroom: http://www.citronpaint.com/colormenu.html

My favorite is stolen from Jaques Pepin: Trim outer edges and cut into quarter-inch pieces. Throw into a cast iron skillet with 4 slices of bacon cut into 1-inch pieces. Cook on high until bacon is...

Yes. We'd need to find a place bigger than our current 800ft2. We'd all need to develop strategies for getting out of each other's hair regularly and biting our tongues. But in the process our daug...

In the Midwest, my mom piles them atop her flowerbeds to mulch and insulate perennials/bulbs over the winter. She covers them right over. Come spring, the soil's been improved, the earthworms are f...

Is it just me, or does it look like the wainscotting is showing through the back of the open shelf? Either the shelf has a decorative back (nice touch if true), or more likely: You Suck at Photosho...

Oh Regina. I love the Flint Hills. I'm originally from Kansas and caught my breath at these photos. Thank you so much for posting them. It's so hard to describe the grandeur and expanse of this par...

I really like this idea (along with all the other desk-inside-bookshelf-ideas). I wonder whether the backlighting would cast too long a shadow on the keyboard. I think if I were to copy this idea I...

Yes, I'm a little surprised by this: Most headphones are clearly designed for men. I was under the assumption that most headphones are clearly designed for ears. Hey! Look! I hav...

Um, sorry..plain jane, but I took "vaguely racist" as a reference to your use of Barack Obama's middle name rather than his first name, and not a reference to his skin color. Nice bait and switch. ...

I'm having a really good time imagining what the last throws of summer look like. Do they come in baseball pinstripes and tight pants? Or are they the acrobatic releases of ultimate frisbee players...

Oh Rodney, I love your playful, dancing, floating bits of light . But I really love those canisters just as they were. I wish I knew of you before you drilled all those little holes.

At least if this statement is true: the local farms that WalMart uses as suppliers are mega-agriculture operations then WalMart's insistence on the absolute lowest...

Tucson has BICAS http://www.bicas.org/

Put it on your oatmeal. Especially nice with raisins and brown sugar.

Oh my. I think they're rather sharp. But isn't this post a recommendation for a service provider? I'd be grateful for anyone who could make a similar recommendation for my town (Tucson), regardless...

If your intent is green, then I would suggest against the diaper service. The services we contacted assured us that they washed the diapers multiple times (as many as 7!) in hot water for sanitatio...

TRUE BLUE, Lucky for you, public.resource.org just posted the entire CA building code online. http://public.resource.org/bsc.c...

No one can resist Mango!

If you try this using hay, be very, very sure to pile on the remaining "ingredients" and do it thick to keep the sunlight and warmth from germinating those grain seeds. We made the mistake of mulc...

The Cup Cafe in Tucson's Hotel Congress did this with real pennies. I don't know what medium they used, but the pennies appear to float between the transparent surface and the concrete floor beneat...
