I had a very similar all white set in the 70's. You could find them in any small town furniture store (hmm, they don't have those any more). The chairs were naugahyde and our cats poked a million...

I've always dreamed of having more counter space. I like to bake and when I do, I seem to have trays, bowls, and supplies on every surface. If I take out the scale, I have to put it away immediat...

Thanks for reminding me about American Frame. I was in Michaels yesterday to have an 18 x 24 poster framed. At $142 I had to walk out. I just went to AF and got the same configuration for about ...

I love/loved MLK. Can't see the relationship to Obama. Sorry.

Alcoholic vomit. Heh.

I have casserole dishes up the wazoo. They are a weakness of mine. Plus I have a friend who loves to shop and she buys them for me, too. No more room! Yes to the puttanesca, bob, it...

Thanks for the suggestions, and I mean ALL the suggestions.

Yes! I have to make this. I didn't even know it, but it's what I've been craving. I remember first roasting tomatoes from a recipe in the NY times Sunday magazine. Let's see, it was Molly someb...

I think it's lovely. I wish I had a vase like that.

Beautiful. So open and airy.

Both rooms are ugly. I wouldn't be comfortable reading there at all.

A literal translatiion of "sov gott" is "sleep well." A very nice room.
