ChzPlz, my dog also gets muddy belly and chest to go with the paws. She's a dachshund and her legs are only a few inches long. An old towel by the front door takes care of the prob...

I love window shopping I Dream of Cake. Each one is a work of art. As for the booths at the North Beach Festival, I really enjoyed most of them. I bought a great reusable shopping ba...

I think the bedroom, dining room and the two yellow chairs are nice. I don't care for the living room. Is there a couch on the porch?

For anyone who is concerned about the water bill... I keep a bucket in the shower to catch the water while it heats up. Once the water is warm enough for me to get in I put the lid on...

Ariel, if your question is about wet rags that get sour and smelly waiting for laundry day I have a tip. Keep them soaking in a small covered bucket in soapy water. It keeps the smel...

I love the "sky is falling" picture!

In many countries that use line drying instead of dryers there is a spinner the get more water out of washed clothes. They are in laundromats and homes. After wet clothes come out o...

It doesn't remove spots/stains but if you want yellowed or greyed whites bright nothing beats Mrs. Stewart's blueing. No fiber damage, either.

Horizon 12 will make me happy :)

With good music to soothe raw urban nerves after a tough day on Muni my world would be saved. The calm ripple of my soothedness would spread throughout the pond and save the world.

I'm doing a veggie container garden on the deck for the first time. My guide is "The Bountiful Container" and it has been a very easy to use reference and planning tool. If anyone has...

I have a container garden on my west facing, covered deck in San Francisco. Lettuces, beets, radishes and Meyer lemons are growing well. I can manage about 6 16" containers. With o...

The childhood book that always made my stomach growl was the "Little House on the Prairie" series. I once pestered my grandmother into giving me pound cake with molasses. My grandmother was right...

As a dog owner I'm looking forward to the added hour of light after work. It has been a long dark winter and I can't wait to see my pup and her pals running around again in the sunlight.

saradanger, yes that is a bidet. I wish Americans would learn to use them. Once you get used to them it's hard to live without. If I ever own a bathroom it will have to include a bidet.

jlg, I've read about the snow treatment. Haven't lived anywhere with snow, yet. These are wool so they are naturally antimicrobial and less likely to harbor any germs or odors other ...

I was never big on baths when I had a tub. I would use it maybe twice a year the rest of the time I showered. Now my place only has a shower and I find myself lingering over bath salts and scente...

Love 'em. Agree with Aggie927 I can think of half a dozen people I'd gift with these. Some of them would be creeped out but that would be part of the fun ;)
