Find other homes for the things that otherwise end up clutter on your fridge. The frames idea is great for kids art and pictures - I've also seen cute displays with wire and clips/clothespins. Put ...
I love bookmooch too. My only complaint is that there's no order to wishlist notifications, so frequently when one of my books becomes available it's snapped up by someone else before I can get it...
I'm a salvager too. I cut off the burnt parts. I add stuff to overspiced dishes until the flavor balances. I recently made a pretty horrible pasta in vodka tomato sauce, and salvaged it by mixin...
Mixing method maybe? You might want to take a look at Alton Brown's "I'm Just Here for More Food" - he sets forth the theory that the difference between baked goods is largely in the way the ingred...
If I think ahead, cold brewed is my favorite. If I don't think ahead, a french press is great. I keep the big drip coffee maker with a timer around for parties - it makes 12 cups without me having...
Sodas. I've been trying to treat them as a treat rather than something to have with lunch, and sparkling water with fruit syrup can be a decent substitute. But sometimes I just get the worst cravin...
Made me think of old drafting stools. I think the style is called a "screw lift" stool. I've only seen them made of steel though, not sure where to find it in wood. it's beautiful though.
I've never worked a recipe that called for wiping midway. However, after cooking I usually do a quick run with a damp sponge while my skillet is still hot. Cleans it out quickly, the sponge acts a...
Three sets each for me and my husband:
One in use.
One in the laundry.
One clean set, ready to replace the one in use. Which goes in the laundry. While the one in the laundry gets...
My parents used to have bug problems, so they took to storing several pantry items in the fridge. One thing I'd recommend against is brown sugar, as it ends up like a rock. Never had problems with ...
Yes we have one. No, I don't really like it that way. But my husband does. He's let me have my way on so many things in the house, so I let him have his way on that. One of the many compromises of ...
In Denmark I remember using a flat sheet in place of a fitted sheet, the square pillows, the duvet in cover. I'd grown up with comforters in the US, but when I moved back here I changed to the duv...
Whipped cream whipper, with the charger capsules - totally makes me feel a bit mad scientist. I'm also a sucker for bright red tools, functional and fun.
Like lotusmoss I've never had much luck with wine ice cubes. I usually just freeze it all together in a tupperware - it stays the consitency of a slushie, so I just spoon out however much I need.
Not since college 6 years ago. I used to call (or, more frequently, e-mail) for recipes from my childhood. But I have those all either in my head or written down now.
If you don't want mexican, they're great for sandwich wraps and rolls. A personal favorite: spread the tortilla with a generous amount of cream cheese, sprinkle with diced black olives and diced d...

ReverendBrown, I was gonna suggest the same one. It's really an excellent timer.

Googling led me to "adjustable piano stools'. Couldn't find a perfect match, but this is fairly close: http://w...

I've made this clementine cake , and it's delicious and gluten-free and butter free. I found
I 'chop' nuts with a rolling pin. Many nuts will break into nice little pieces when rolled over.
