Choose a box, of a size that you feel comfortable storing, and fill it with things you want to keep - that have meaning for you.
In my case, I found a box with the notes I passed wit...

Mice can jump over the traps. A great tip we picked up from Family Handyman (great magazine) is to use two traps, taping them back to back on a piece of cardboard. Place them along the edges of w...
I think the market for this is highly Boston-specific. There are lots of students who will only be here for one summer. (Two year grad program = 1 summer) Also, college dorms close in the summer,...
Not at home with my books, but there are lots of vacation homes in old film noirs from the 50s. Used for getaways, hideouts and such. It's often interesting to see the originals for the modern look.

For Boston, TAGS in Porter Square is a hardware store truly dedicated to apartment life, very well edited (funny to say about a hardware store, but true). They have lots of gardening stuff, both f...

Miller Genuine Draft?
A head's up - the things in the seasonal catalog are usually single run products. If you want, buy.
