This may be more than you want to spend, but this could function not only as your desk but also as your bookshelf/media shelf. It could be a nice way to divide your sleeping area from a sitting ar...

How about something like this: http://www.improvementscatalog.com/product/4-panel-metal-privacy-scr...

Incandescents may have flicker too, but I think the frequency of the flicker is different from that of CFLs. For several people I know, the flicker of CFLs exacerbates their migraines or neurologi...

Hmm...Blanquette is a stew with white sauce. I agree, though, that $225 for a big towel is ridiculous.

It's beautiful, I love it!

To Matthew's comment about carrying a folded beach chair not being hard: I often take public transportation and have to walk quite a distance from the train to even get to the beach (there's one b...

I would love these for the deck!

Go JP!!! I've lived in JP for 3 years and love it! Your apartment looks so fun and inviting! Also, it was a pleasure to read your entry, which was very well-written and entertaining. The only r...

This one is similar to what's on the couch now, but I'm not sure if it would work for upholstery.

Wow, this would be great!

Normally I don't like wood paneling, but what you have in your room is VERY nice wood paneling, and I could totally imagine someone wanting to use that space as a cozy library/reading room. It loo...
