This is a great topic. Any breakfast idea for diabetics?

I wish Maxwell would weigh in. I have the same dilemma. All the solutions offered so far lack pizzazz (spelling?).

I can't imagine using this Dyson in a truly small Japanese apartment --say 9 mats or so. In my own smallish Manhattan apartment, I am very satisfied with my little green cordless Shark.

What SputnikSpak says is true. Humans were made to squat. When I came back to USA-land, I found for the first month or so, I had to perch like a little birdy on the toilet seat. My Ko...

Yes, please--the couch! And. . . it comfortable? Thanks!

I remember this room. The trim is painted Benjamin Moore's "Pale Smoke" which after I saw in the photo, I used for the accent walls of my apartment with a lighter shade for trim, and white for the ...

Hmm. "Want some lube? Want to test it?" he asks. I think we should have coffee first.

Well, I think Jay Gantz made a library like this in his home. (see "The Great Gatsby"). It impressed Nick Carraway. Jay had lovely shirts too. These impressed Daisy. Books and shirts. A good way ...

Next to my sink, I have a chrome spray bottle for dilute dish soap -- yeah, Maxwell's little anemic plastic bottles didn't cut it for me but I like his idea of non-branded pretty dispensors-- and a...
