Just chiming to agree that have A LOT of cloths makes all the difference. I bought a big box of flour sack dishtowels on eBay. I dedicated a kitchen drawer to them and use them instead of paper t...

Elminate paper napkins and/or paper towels. I did this last year and even my husband, who was resistant at first, thought it was super easy. For towels, I ordered a box of flour sack ...

For me, tastes have shapes. The shapes have nothing to do with the texture of the food - they are independent of that. I realized that it doesn't work that way for eveyone when I told my mom that...

I recently moved into a 1950s house with an ugly brick fireplace. I painted the brick a very very dark brown (almost black) and it looks fantastic. I gives me joy every time I see it and I have no...

We got the toddler workbench for my three-year old son for Christmas and he loves it. I think I was able to get a better price though by checking around the web.

Although I will be playing "Silver Bells," I'd like mine in red.

I have the Target ones and they are absolutely fantastic! Very soft and silky.

My father worked for the phone company and he drilled into me the importance of having a landline with a non-cordless phone for emergencies. Living in SF, with the possibility of earthquakes, I ca...

Another vote for Charlie & Lola. I love the collage-y backgrounds and animation. My son likes it, but not nearly as much as I do.

This music box is the first thing I bought for my son's nursery when I was expecting three years ago. It is supercute in person and he loves it.
