1) use your slow cooker, if you have one. 2) you don't have to follow stock recipes exactly-just use whatever leftover veggies hanging around, this lowers the cost/effort ...

I like this!

I put a pinch into my shortcrust pastry when I make quiche, which sounds so wrong but honestly give it a try, it's great. My dad always did it, I don't know why.

It doesn't even register with me-I use salted butter in everything.

I make pasta alla norma nearly every week in the summer-here are my tips: 1. make your slices of aubergine a lot bigger-you want to have their texture there too (like hunks of meat i s...

Wow is Poland Spring real? I thought Seinfeld made it up! *clueless english girl*

I love the little snail! I am steadily accumulating a list of little things to get from IKEA thanks to Apartment Therapy...

I presume this was a rhetorical question.. I would LOVE to see the apartment someone who does though, can it be the next House Tour please!

I don't have much room in my back yard so its a container garden for me. Fennel, sage, basil (hopefully), mint, lemon balm, rocket, tomatoes. And maintaining a Bay tree and thyme plan...

Garment organisers are not for me-it wouldn't feel homely. Maybe for kids (especially if they were designed in a fun, kiddy way).

Minimalist!

I'm a student, so a lot of my student friends say that my house 'feels like a proper home' because they haven't really made an effort in their temporary accomodation (which isn't really so temporar...

I would to do that Erikthered, but as a point of law, if you got rid of the hard copy of the film/music you bought (keeping only a virtual version), you have no proof that you legally purchased it....

I don't trust myself (I don't mind snacking, but I do mind boredom eating-it's pointless when I can just window shop instead!), so I just have tea. I do bring a slice of cake every day though with...

I don't mind the schoolroom look-it looks like the sort of school you'd actually want to go to (rather than the one you end up in!), kind of like that retro school stuff vibe that's around on Etsy ...
