I know my place would be gutted and renovated if I ever moved, so I did some DIY renovations on the cheap. I put down vinyl stick tiles on the floor on top of the existing tiles - I "retiled" the c...

I grow herbs in a 23 gallon oak fish tank that had been empty of fish for quite awhile. It's lovely to look at, and since I don't get much sun, gives the plants the light they need with the full sp...

I wonder if it would be just as good without the corn syrup, which is the only ingredient and don't have, and don't care to buy.

Mine is a very rich turquoisy blue called Bahaman Sea Blue.

Does anyone know of malted milk powder that isn't all chemicals and trans fats? I have the Carnation stuff but I'd rather be eating a natural food.

Just a little correction to adiaphane's post - Le Creuset skillets are enameled on the interior as well as exterior. It's just a black enamel. I love mine to death and there is little sticking.

I've slept on a Mitchell Gold sofabed every night for the last 9 years (studio apartment, hate when the whole apartment looks like a bedroom). It's totally comfy. That Room and Board C...

Pixie - because my electric bill would get very high the months I used it. Near summer rates.

I live alone in a great neighborhood in NYC thanks to a rent stabilized place I've had for over 14 years, but it's too small to ever live with someone. Which is probably why I am single.

I have one but it eats a ton of electricity which doesn't seem so green to me, plus costs me a small fortune. So I haven't been running it lately...it was bought to alleviate the cigarette smoke th...

I don't take either. With all the reusable totes out there, and many folding up into tiny envelopes in a purse or pocket, there's no reason anymore to take a bag from the store.

Mine lives in a huge pine armoire with my home theatre and DVD storage. It's nice because when I have company over I can close the doors and have the apartment nearly media free (my computer monito...
