Love the clock, but the link for it is bad. :(

Just think how the space would be transformed with a bright quilt on the wall, a plant or two . . . . AT just seems to love these all-white, lab-like dwellings (no way I can call them...

I've been using Biokips locking containers to bring my lunch to work and I've had good results with them so far.

Needless to say, I was responding to a comment that has since disappeared.

Agree wholeheartedly, Chester. What does this have to do with "saving the world, one room at a time"?

muirwoods08, Re-nest is the Apartment Therapy site devoted to eco-friendly living. My question had to do with sourcing undyed, unbleached organic cotton clothing because the usual commercially-mad...

I sent a question to Re-nest and I don't think it was ever posted. That kind of soured me on the whole process, I'm afraid. It was kind of an urgent question (related to health, not decorating), ...

Another way to solve the "too much cake" problem is just to halve a regular recipe and make one standard layer or 6 cupcakes. Frankly, I'd much rather use the pans I have than buy more--I've alrea...

You should know that when you buy homeopathic remedies, you're paying a lot of money for WATER. It's a scam, pure and simple.

Nope, I'm an atheist. I'm all for conscious eating and trying to eat healthy, but those are things I want to work on all the time, not just a few days a year. And I rarely drink alcohol because I...

Elizabeth, did you ever post how you attached that yellow iron gate to the wall to make a headboard? I couldn't find instructions, and I'd like to do something similar--I have three gothic-y black...

I love the look of the runner, but I have to agree with mysoultokeep that I don't think it's terribly practical. Thanks for the link to the Sylvania site, though--I love the color-changing "decor ...

I took several quilting classes some years ago when I was first learning to quilt, and it was a great way to learn all kinds of insider tricks quickly. When I came up against a problem, the rest o...

Actually, no, sally599, the saturated fat in chicken thighs isn't healthy for anyone, while the olive oil is healthy for everyone (assuming you don't overdo it and take in too many calories). That...

I'm with kimg924 on this--I think sometimes people go a little overboard on demonizing HFCS. There are lots of reasons to avoid junk foods like packaged cookies and I'm actually more concerned abo...

OneEyedMan, the fact that a food is highly processed means that, as a general rule, more planetary resources have gone into producing it than a less-processed food, making the more processed food m...

I'm sure it's a huge improvement, but I just don't get why people get excited over rooms that are completely white. Yes, it looks nice and clean, but it's going to get dirty pretty much instantly ...

I hate to say it, but if you're trying to eat healthy, chicken thighs are a really bad choice. They actually have more fat than many lean cuts of steak.

I'm a big fan of DIY. I see a lot of interest here in simplifying, using less, spending less, etc., and posts on repurposing things, improving what you have, and that sort of thing fit right in wi...

The only Method product I've tried is the dishwasher detergent and it was just awful. I used a couple of the pellets and threw out the rest, as they didn't work at all. Have other people here had...
