Um....pretty much 75% of the furniture I own could be considered "placeholder". I'm 27, paying off student loans / college credit cards and while I have a good job and salary I just am not in a pla...
Good directions with info about your house (no one ever really remembers the number it seems!) is great. I tell people things like "at the first stoplight" when I give street names.

A good conditioner for my usually-past-my-shoulders hair is one item I have yet to find a good, yet not too pricey "green" replacement for. Often they just don't do the detangling job I need them t...
I loved Orange Spice and Red Zinger as a kid...my brother and I would swipe the packets from the tea bag holders at our Dad's restaurant a couple at a time so we could always have a stash of them a...
I've got a question for my fellow cure-ees. This morning I picked up a few plants from my aunt, she was very generous to give me a gorgeous mature variegated schefflera and two HUGE hanging ferns. ...
Mine are in my "hall closet" that's actually in the dining room/office. It's the only storage area and real estate is hard to come by. I need to reorganize and take advantage of the spot under the ...

@GrainSmasher, you are right, her comment WAS constructive. I suppose I didn't get much out of it due to the tone. As the saying goes, "you catch more flies with honey..."
But agreed, ...
I really need to work on our landing strip...I set things up very similar in our new apt. as in our old without regard to the fact that instead of a solid wood door we now have one with (gorgeous) ...
@sunshine You have the best attitude ever about your fridge! That's half the battle, keeping a positive outlook. As for tackling the cleaning supplies, just think about how much better it will be t...
I finished the last cupboard last night and it made me even more grateful for our new apartment. We have, compared to our teeny tiny old kitchen, a glut of available storage and some cabinets are d...
I love when I go to a party and someone has thought to light a candle or two or otherwise "light" the bathroom for a party. I always do the same. Makes it look a bit fancier and welcoming, and also...
