When I first saw the headline I assumed it meant a vehicle designed to drive extremely close to the car in front, maybe to improve mileage by drafting :)

I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I always get pumpkin ale (Buffalo Bill's is the one most widely available here) because I like pumpkins.

This doesn't solve the problem of getting even slices from the whole tomato. I'll keep my cheap Target brand slicer, thanks.

Definitely tea, and also random blue bowls. Wine doesn't stick around in my kitchen long enough to be considered a collection :/

Blue cheese and roast beef are an awesome combo, and I'm usually quite open-minded about ice cream, but I'll pass on this one.

It's certainly inexpensive enough to try out.

I've made Eton Mess without mint before, but it sounds like a delicious addition!

Check if they are in the public domain (no longer under copyright), and if so you may be able to make nice color copies if the library has that ability.

Wheeled baskets are less expensive and have more uses. I can just see the oblivious crowd at my local FM bayoneting people in their nether regions with that protruding bar,

We used Westside for a long time until a tight budget forced us to stop. Great produce and great service!

I used to eat oatmeal every morning, either instant or the steel cut, but one day I just couldn't face it anymore. Now I usually have a bar before running out the door, or a Pop Tart at work (my of...

Another shaker here.

All my wine glasses are from art & wine festivals (two of each), so there's a vast array of shapes.

Bakings soda, vinegar, Bon Ami for the stainless steel sink and pans, leftover lemon chunks for the garbage disposal. Method go naked all-purpose spray is good for anything those won't take care of.

LOL @ pdxcarrie - While I certainly need pantry ideas, panty ideas would not be unwelcome either :D I am also in a rented kitchen with the worst possible countertop material ima...

This may even be better than the silicone steamer I picked up a few months ago (no center post to interfere with things like tamales).
