I grew up in a house on a corner lot and it was great because the bus stop was right there and you didn't have to drive down a long alley to get to your garage (it also felt safer to have an expose...

I like to make them into a sweet mung bean soup as mentioned above. I also add tapioca pearls (that's how my grandmother would make it for me when I was growing up).

Oops - forget what I said above. I didn't look at the plans - I thought this was one of those doors with a pivot hinge more towards the middle.

When you look at the clearance when the door is open and the path of the door swing, you will see that it is no different than a normal door in terms of space being taken up. In fact, this door ta...

5.5'x7'. On the plus side, I can stand in one spot and do anything from it.

The Madeline Weinrib rug looks like another I saw on the ABC site just a few days back: http://...

If I had a red brick house with black shutters that matched my neighbor's, I wouldn't go to the trouble of painting my bricks. I would just paint my shutters and trim.

I knew a chef from Naples, and he would say that a fish never sees a cow and vice versa, so why would you put the two together?

I think red would be nice. Or red and white stripes.

I remember buying this issue in Canada a few years ago. I hung onto it for a while - not sure if I still have it.

I went to a Texas public school and remember eating in elementary school things like Frito Pie, Salisbury Steak, Pizza (rectangular slice to fit the tray compartment), Taco Salad, Burger, Grilled C...

It looks a little like the stairwell in the new museum on the Bowery. But I've only been there once, so maybe me memory is a bit fuzzy.

This store isn't here anymore. It's now a Marc Jacobs Children's Store.

I think a round table would be best - center it more in the space rather than close to the window. I think having a generous traffic space around the table without having to duck under the sloped c...

Given the light fixture on the left in the photo, I would forgo a shower curtain rod (the light would be in the way.) The next inexpensive solution would be a hospital curtain track, but it looks ...

I'd orient the settee so it faces a short end of the table if that doesn't look too off balance.

Next time try using Wine Away on the stain - it's worked for me.

I have an equally tiny kitchen and the same Williams-Sonoma green and yellow dishcloth currently hanging in it right now.

I actually like this house. It looks cozy, inviting, and unlike many interiors I see on AT, I feel the person who lives in this space has a sense of humor and isn't pretentious.
