Oh my - this reminds me of when I rented a home where Saul Bellow once lived. The landlord refused to let us go near any of his random scrawlings on every wall of the house with either an art fram...

Holy, that's a tall bed!

DIAPERS DIAPERS DIAPERS (and WIPES). 'nuff said. I'm with charybdis112 - I rarely buy large, bulk items (except for the items listed above!). They have plenty of smaller-sized items ...

I'm on board w/marthachick - our family has been using cotton napkins from World Market for a few years now & we love them. Someone purchased some poly-blend napkins for us (WalMart, I believe) an...

Yikes. Bad name. Bad, bad name.

I've had the same problem in the past and went veggie with a couple of stuffed delicata squash and lots of dessert. :) Didn't miss the turkey at all... although these days I'd probably just roast ...

Without question - my 2 cast iron pans. More effective than a griddle: I frequently heat both on the stove & press sandwiches between them. I use them to crush garlic. To pound meat into paillar...

I'm glad I'm not the only one avoiding silicone bakeware - I know I'm slightly paranoid, but I'd rather use my cheery stoneware or sturdy steel pans that take up an extra inch or two of space and r...

Yes. Yes, I do want to rush home right now. I think some Yorkshire Pudding is in order because I like the beefy goodness. Definite inspiration w/this post!

What a great prize! You know, I can see Veneto becoming the plaid of the 70s in about 10 years... I like Maestro, but the shape of the cup handle is giving me a problem. I do, however...

You're so lucky - our Craigslist Farm & Garden section (Milwaukee) pretty much lists horse saddles and tractors. And the occasional snowblower. :)

Wow - tell me about that chair in the photo! That's wonderful - it looks like it holds both kids and adults comfortably.

I've been wanting a play kitchen for my son for about a year now (he's 2 1/2) - he loves his IKEA pot set & helps me in the kitchen all the time. But we have NO ROOM for anything like the size of ...

That's a fantastic idea - I love the wooden bikes, too but I'm definitely going to check out the Trek.

Please - I've asked the entire family countless times to "give the gift of time" for my boys. They'd love nothing more than "a day out with ____" or to be taken to a movie or the zoo. Yet, this y...

@magmae - I loop my pot lids over the pot's handle and hang the whole thing up. Granted, this only works if: 1. you have a loop handle on the lid and 2. you are able to hang your...

I love the "Italian dishwasher", which is essentially a wall-mounted rack inside a cabinet over the sink! (the bottom is open so the water drips away) It hides everything away nicely.

I have to say I never experienced it until I moved to Wisconsin, but there are so many old-school supper clubs and steak joints here that most would be surprised if they *didn't* receive a relish t...

I was invited to bring a dish to Thanksgiving this year and I offered up choices from roasted root vegetables to an awesome cauliflower gratin or these maple ginger carrots I make frequently... and...

I agree, EmmieB... I've been eyeing one of those sling-type bookcases and we'...
