Love it, though I'd probably want a slightly more orderly pattern than the one pictured above. I can understand why others might consider it hazardous because of snow or mosquito breeding, but luck...
Sarahrae, thanks for the great reminder of what a cool artist Adam is! I lusted after his print at ArtCrank this year but it was already sold out that night. I'm leaving Minneapolis at the end of t...
I enjoyed the article (and his dorm room) quite a lot, but I couldn't help but think that he reads like some Wes Anderson character come to life (down to the "melon" colored trousers), he almost se...
I actually enjoy the Social Workout links/posts. It inspired me to try (and er, not completely followthrough) on the April Workout Challenge (between the Cure and work and stuff, I think I got a li...
I'd say your title question, "do supermarkets offer the best choice?" can be met with a corollary, "do wine shops/alcohol-specific retailers offer the best choice?" In both cases, the answer is no,...
Might as well add some whinging to the pile, haha! Portland has a dedicated contributor (according to the Team page), Lise, as part of AT:SF but I haven't seen her post since January :( Does Daniel...
I dislike how quickly many are to point out that it's a computer-manipulated photograph. So what if it's been Photoshopped? It's not as though the artist simply cut and pasted one pose to collage t...
I've seen a lot of basement apartments, but none done up so nicely as yours! The painting on the living room wall is superb. You have done a great job keeping the scale of pieces dramatic enough to...
ChristopherB is spot on about current prices vs. what they were in the actual mid-century, even adjusted for inflation. My mother and my aunt bought my grandparents a Harry Bertoia Bird chair (with...
woo hoo, an Ashland entry! I lived with a friend in Ashland for awhile when he went to SOU, and needless to say, the apartment was decidedly less cool and well-designed than what you've got going. ...
Oh blah blah blah. I got my shih tzu from the shelter and he happened to be purebred. Dogs with fancy pedigrees do end up being left homeless, too.
While I'm not complaining too much a...
We are a quiet bunch, no?
Things at my apartment are going along sort of slow, thanks to a killer cold that's knocked me down for a week and a half (going straight to bed after work is...
Haha, I love how some people apparently didn't read her write-up about how she has a sleeper sofa.
What a fabulous job making such a small apartment seem spacious! I like the idea of ...
Heh, might not be the route for everyone, but if you're prepared to throw down a bunch of cash for plastic laptop sleeves and such, you might just look into getting a cheap used/refurb netbook so y...
Hi Seshat, thanks for breaking the ice!
I followed along with the last Fall Cure, and then my boyfriend so kindly got me the book for Christmas so I was all amped up to do it this time...
Once again another Portlander chiming in with some of the commenters above that while it is an amazingly lovely city, it probably would not be anywhere close to being a sure bet right now.

check out the Chop meat counter at City Market (735 NW 21st Ave). It used to be the old Viande Meats outpost-- but it sounds like they'll be opening a new location where the...
Oh so excited! Never participated in The Cure, but my boyfriend (oh loving, understanding lad he is) bought me the book for Christmas so now I can play along at home!
I think a big part of it is being selective about the bandwagon styles. Trends come and go and inevitably come back again, so a few pieces integrated into the whole work well.
I like ...
Beeeyoutiful. Even if I had the space and were just as lovely as the above examples, I'm not sure I'm really the type to lounge around in my bathroom. Not out of any germophobia, but because as the...
