I'm an avid reader, but really not much of a re-reader. About the only thing I really like to re-read is LOTR -- I re-read that about once every 4-5 years.

Ah -- books......
I love them. So much so that I'm still kicking myself for not becoming a librarian.
I'm constantly in a state of panic over what to do with all of mine. ...
@TRUE BLUE:
It all depends. Before I was an apartment dweller, I once planted a tomato plant in my backyard in a spot that got blazing hot sunshine. Then I promptly forgot about it for...
I would NOT paint the two wooden cabinets that face the table -- that looks like it might be original condition and it would be a real shame to paint those. Besides, they pop against the rest of it...
Note: Jim G's planter suggestion is very much like what I was thinking, only I was envisioning large square or rectangular wood ones. I like his idea of making your own planters too -- while you ...
The retaining wall itself doesn't look particularly attractive. It also feels cut off from the land above (that might just be the picture). If there isn't already a way up there I'd like to see so...
How about hanging a curtain flush with the side wall of the kitchen, so you can block it out of view? It could either stretch across the entire view or it could be fixed so that there is an uncurt...
OK, OK -- I repent my evilness!!!
I promise to go find a book on Eames and read about it before allowing myself any further snarky comments.
I don't think I'll end up lik...
P.S. -- AT:Canada is at minimum.
It really needs at least two: one to cover Toronto and Montreal (and the rest of eastern Canada), and another to cover Vancouver and the rest of west...
Hmm...
I think what is needed is an AT:Canada, not coverage by AT:SF and AT:Chicago.
And there's a lot of US between AT:SF or AT:LA and AT:Chicago that isn't getting cover...
Hmm --
See, the things I tend to have are not things I picked out to complete a look. Rather, they are things I've carefully chosen that say something about me. I suspect a lot of othe...
@TRUE BLUE:
Well now that is interesting and puts things in a little different light to me. I would find it interesting to read a little more about the original intent even if I still ...
Re open shelving: not to mention that I find it very stressful to have to see all that stuff.
I like kitchens with just a couple of open shelves displaying a few things. An open-shelf...

I'd love to have one of these graceful old houses with a haint blue roof. Maybe I need to move to the south.
Not to mention how would you FIT in that tub? My 5'11" body and it's curves isn't going to work with this. (dblitz is a her).

I would spend my whole day worried about falling down those stairs. OK, I don't really see what's so exciting about this.
