This is missing the choice for those who are wondering why on earth you'd put a slip cover on a perfectly beautiful chair. Unless a chair is pretty much ruined, I just don't get puttin...

I used to work as a scenic carpenter and this reminds me of the set design for a show I built. I still remember spending hour shattering plexi mirror (safety first) into shards and then hot gluing ...

that the bathroom door doesn't latch or lock. Showering without a locked bathroom door freaks me out.

I'm amused by the suggestion that the branding on washing up liquid is horrible and tacky, but the branding on a glass soda bottle is beautiful and fresh. I guess if I just hang onto ...

ooh, my grandmother has that same stove.

I have a few Method lavender scented candles, and I think one method spiced pear from the holidays. I rarely burn them though. Only when the house feels stuffy and stale to me (or whatever dinner e...

I tend to buy small sets (4 place settings each) of various patterns. I try to think about whether the pattern I want to pick up could be mixed attractively with any of my other sets if I needed ad...

I've been meaning to get one for ages now, but I just can't decide on which one would be right for me. Brand, material, size it just eternally pushes back the purchasing process for me whenever I g...

Robert's Orange Milk. I think I was the only person in the Robert's Dairy area that drank it, but it tasted like orange creamsicles and was sooo good. And I really miss maple Shreddie...

I am now exceptionally glad that I do not own a cat.

I'm finally giving up my pizza dough phobia and am making dough from scratch and trying a potato and tapenade pizza recipe from Bon Appetit tonight. It's the last day of my week for dinner, but sin...

I don't think it's naive at all, I'm not suggesting that AT or any site cease publishing tips, products, and ways that we can live a more environmentally sustainable and healthy way, or that any of...
