I go every day, for fruit that I hadn't noticed or didn't want squished packed among bulkier items; for milk or eggs or butter since my partner is always baking something; for meat for dinner or a ...
I'd completely go with white semi-sheer curtains (and yes, hang 'em higher, the room will feel more together)---that will bring in more light and more balance with the bed coverings and allow more ...
The ceiling looks divine as it stands---and kudos to those who took the time to measure, tape and paint the design. I like what Fjorlief wrote, it's a "now nod" to the beams typical of Craftsman co...
Tool lending libraries are great. I made frequent use of the one in Berkeley along University Avenue.
Now grammar/style notes from a former English teacher and editor: The "we" in this...
When I've sold on craigslist, I've made sure that my replies to prospective buyers are dictated by their order in contacting me. It doesn't seem fair to call the fifth respondent for whatever reaso...

Nonprofits like Salvation Army can't operate on donor's schedules, so Leslie's advice to confirm whether you're on the schedule makes sense. Craigslist is also great for getting rid of things quick...
Nothing strange about using colors that make you feel comfortable or attractive---which is why this place, with its blues and greens and pops of yellow suits us so well.
It seems the only real solution is to find a non-smoking building in a non-smoking neighborhood in a non-smoking city. Allergens seem to increase every year, and one person's transcontinental snack...
Soothing, calming, each of these---and perhaps the best way to display any sort of collection AND maintain some editing and discernment standards. I'm especially drawn to the pale green pieces.
I love the decoupage wall in the guest bathroom, and the kitschy papal picture. I am disturbed and offended by people who post the negative comments. Others before have said it better, but really i...
Good ideas, all of these. I think it's helpful to remember that on any day, new people are discovering AT and other sites, so they may not know the inventory of earlier postings; on that note, it s...
A couple of years ago I spent 12 months living in a historic building that is now something like 80 condos. The ground floor's laundry room was well equipped with eight washing machines and eight d...
The federal government uses 30% of income as a benchmark for what constitutes affordable housing. In other words, people making the transition from "welfare to work" are supposed to pay nearly one-...

The chandelier is my second favorite aspect; the first is the man.

Yep...I was referring to the mysterious Amazon.

I mix up and grind my own--mostly because I want the cardamom to be as fresh as possible. The process takes only a couple of minutes.
Looks fantastic---a bright spot for an already cheerful room!
