What a thoughtful sister you are. As a mother of three, myself, I would rather not have others cooking in my kitchen. Cleaning-up after cooking will take energy she may not have...so I think your...

Several years ago, I hosted my very first Thanksgiving for my husbands family. His grandmother brought her coveted pumpkin pies (two of them), which everyone was looking forward to enjoying. Well...

I agree with PaminBoston. The kitchen is great except for all those lights installed where the recessed lights would be. My eye was immediately drawn to them...and not in a good way.

Do we have something against hall trees???

Lisa...I completely feel the same way. So, I usually find myself attracted to decor that is deemed out of style by most people. However, I am slowly learning to listen to my instincts and ignore ...

This is exactly how I do my pumpkins. I bought a set of lino cutters (different sizes) from Dick Blick, and I use a strand of 50 christmas lights for each pumpkin. I cut a hole in the bottom of t...

I noticed La-Z-Boy had a version awhile ago....can anyone comment on the quality of their version? Has anyone seen it in person?

This is really, really neat. Great job, guys!

Don't forget to run the dishwasher and the garbage disposal. In one week, those unwashed dishes or bits of food in the disposal can work-up a stink that would gag a maggot.

Good timing on this post. I just made some with white grape juice and Cointreau. Next time, I think I will add some green apple liqueur and frozen grapes.

You should always be using unsalted butter for baking. If salt is an ingredient in the recipe, then it will tell you exactly how much to add...there should be no guess work here.

I don't get it. Why would you put any more time, money and effort into this if you can't keep it. Certainly, there are many that would buy it and finish it to their liking...just list it as unfin...

I second the corn cake dish or the fruit salad. I would not care for a bean side dish that mimics the flavors of the tacos. Contrasting flavors is the way to go.

My favorite so far. Love the calm, comfortable vibe. Candice--believe it or not, there are people in Columbus that don't live and die for the Buckeyes and have a sense of style...jeez.

Love it....the floors, wall to wall books, tiles in bath. This home looks fresh and unpretentious throughout. Perfect.

I have a "greenhouse" window with shelves above my kitchen sink, which sounds wonderful on paper...however, every plant I have ever put in that window gets fried in the summer and freezer burned in...

I am just lovin' the heck out of this kitchen! Well done. This is exactly my aesthetic...and, I love that there is NO stainless.

My friends and I would play this game all the time. We would always have one "undesirable" boy on the list, which made it very funny, albeit immature. I told my eight year old and her friend abou...

I just had a window installed in my bathroom because there wasn't one. The window is about 3' x 3' and it is sooooo nice to have fresh air and sunlight. It also made the room feel bigger. I thin...

I replaced my white, plastic medicine cabinet door with a framed print. The old door was screwed onto a piano hinged metal plate that couldn't be removed, so I used the metal plate as my "backer b...
