I gave a bunch of these as stocking stuffers for my cousins last year. They even have molds to make frozen shot glasses.

If my husband isn't home I still prefer to eat frozen green beans (especially when there aren't pretty fresh ones at the store). My mom really hates cooking so the fact that my sister and I l...

My grandma had a long appliance garage put in her kitchen when she re-did it in the early 80s. She was ahead of her time :-)

On a tangent note, I saw a picnic basket that had a flip up square so that a wine bottle can peek out the top of the basket. Reminds me of this picture.

and double-check that the coffee maker filter is emptied.

ooohhhh, I like this idea. For the times when an evite just isn't classy enough but you don't need to worry about real USPS stamps.

I think this would be great if your goal was to keep the rest of the pepper whole so you could stuff it for baking or grilling (like jm chen just said). Or you'd need a skinny sharp knife and hold ...

It's almost embarrassing to say, but my most recent IKEA I-love-it item is a dish scrubber with a suction cup at the end of the handle. I HATE when the scrubber just lays in the sink and gets mucki...

Whether or not you knew what PEI stood for, if you've eaten more than a couple meals of shell fish or visited a restaurant with an oyster bar you'd know that most oysters and mussels and lobsters a...

I LOVE Penzeys. We have one on 19th St in Houston. I agree that the best part is to be able to stand there and sniff/test the different variety of herbs and spices and spice mixes before comm...

I have my grandmother's strawberry huller. It looks like fat tweezers. I always thought it was called a strawberry topper till I tried to find another one. You just pluck out the stem with a...

my mom has one. yup, slices tomatoes. don't know if she uses it.

I can't put my hand on it now, but a couple years ago I came across a recipe for savory waffles (with curry and other spices in them) and pan friend chicken. Yum-o. The waffles were less like break...

you should see how much shampoo my husband uses. He gets a kick out of filling his whole hand with it before sudsing up. Can I get him to "halve it"? still working. no luck so far.

To get it good and fluffy I usually put all the ingredients in the blender and let the batter whip up for 30 seconds. Then let it rest a little before going in the hot butter. mmm, bake till ...

I'm all for the note. That's great. Really, there's an element of "I really don't need to hear this" that is separate from being mad that the neighbors are noisy. And I'd be right the...

The radon is produced by break down of uranium in some of the accessory minerals in the granite. Manufactured countertops wouldn't have those minerals so they're not part of the warning.

guacamole isn't guacamole without cilantro. it's the best. wish our plant didn't croak during a heat wave this summer.

dogs not allowed on our sofa nor the bed. Dogs not allowed in the bathroom either. I. hate. pet. fur. And really, even though our dog gets a bath every other week she creates grimey smudges ...

I keep trying to put my husband's polo shirts in color sequence... they don't stay that way for long.
