i have a set of bowls with lids which are very similar to the Urban Outfitters pictured. i think i got them from an Avon catalogue. they're ridiculously useful.

i was a fast eater as a kid, then slowed right down in my late teens & twenties (probably from a fear of being perceived as a hog at the table). now, i'm a fast eater again. i blame...

it may be a little gross, but sometimes i mix the crumbs with some salsa and eat them with a spoon.

well, this recipe does not translate well to a crockpot. after well over 20 hours at the highest setting i only had bean soup. it was tasty enough, but not fit for the barbeque i had planned to t...

i have the opposite problem: great hardwood floors but dingy beige walls i'm not allowed to - and my landlord won't - paint. it's quite frustrating.
