I usually wake up around 3 or 4 if I haven't had a snack, and going to sleep hungry just doesn't happen for me. I exercise a lot though, and have a high metabolism.

Right outside my back door is a forest of spearmint and basil... and the flies don't seem to care at all about it. They come right on in.

I'm living this dream right now. 6 br home, renovating top floor to rent out, new kitchen and 1st floor floor in the works for us. The only things that are done right now is our bedroo...

Most of Philly has a serious parking problem but we bought our house partially because there is a community garden and a municipal unmetered lot across the street. I think we've had to park on the ...

I ran into this at my sis' house in the UK. You mix a little H&C water in the basin then wash your face from that. We did that for hands too, then rinsed them in cold.

"We" dance.

Maybe there is a bread box or a hack of one that could be mounted to the wall? My parents had a bread drawer, with some kind of metal top that you slid back to get to the bread. ...

I have the smaller one. I usually do green tea plus dried spearmint leaves. When it has steeped, I remove those and put in fresh spearmint and a little agave.

I agree with all of the people saying they grew up in a smaller home w/ 1 or 2 bathrooms, etc. We kids felt lucky to be in a house with 2 bathrooms, but it was a 60's 3 BR ranch, with open, small L...

Quinoa with caramelized shallots, red peppers and celery salad, seitan thrown on top, and mint iced tea.

Haha - I have a half plate that is holding up the soil in a brick planter where some of the bricks have disappeared.

If you have trouble with WW pasta, try Gia Russa... it's the only thing besides cat litter and TP that I go to a regular grocery store for. The capellini is divine, and I get the spaghetti too.

I agree with Button on the "every-man" and the "we". On topic: I've never lived in a place with doorstops. Now that I own a 120 yr old house, I'm going to look for dents.

"Eviscerate"

My cat rings a chime at the door when he wants to go out. It can be a pain, but it is also impressive to visitors. Birds chirping, unless it's at 5:30 like this morning, and it wakes me up.

In Denmark you'd turn them with a knitting needle, not a flipping stick.

I art heart! I mean heart art!

I like to wash mine, then toast it in the frying pan. Then I cover it with water and put it in the rice cooker (and go off and do something fun). This brings it to the "chewy" consistency for salad...

Whoever revamped my house in the 60's turned the pantry into a small laundry/mudroom, which is immediately off the kitchen with no door between rooms, and it leads to the back door. It works out ve...

Beautiful piece and not appropriate for fish. Thank you previous commenters for taking a stand.
