Yes Joan in SB! I have been hinting hard every time a tea-topic comes up. Seems to me, there is plenty of interest and topics for a bona-fide tea week :)

I just wanted to say THANK YOU for the post a week or so ago about how to tell if the eggs that have been sitting in my fridge are still edible. Sometimes I have them in there for quite some time. ...

I love my step stool. I named it Raul. As in "Ra-ool the step stool". Just a run of the mill thing from the hardware store, but I can't live without him.

Carolynapplebee, I just heard about green bags while sitting around the Easter dinner table last weekend. I haven't seen anything advertised though. Someone brought it up and swore that any bag tha...

Amen, wig3000! I cringe everytime she tosses empty tin cans into her garbage bowl! Throw those apple cores in a compost pile Rachel!

I love it. I want it. Here's me throwing my name into the mix.

Hooray for the tea drinkers! I vote for a counter to coffee week with our very own TEA week on the kitchn! I agree with badhuman above, I have found some pretty good loose leaf teas sold by t...

I NEED this! Anyone know of the same product available at a retail store? I hate to spend more in shipping than the thermometer actually costs.

The woman on the new Food network show, Simply Delicioso uses one of these. I had never seen anyone use one before, but she scoops up everything with her scraper.

Love the doggies in the bathroom! where can I get one? (that is a picture of my sister's Lilydog if i ever saw one)

I have been struggling with no full-length mirror in my studio apt for too long, mainly because there is no wall-space for it. Literally nothing. I have hooks on my doors (I only have one door in t...

I unplug my hairdryer or straightening iron and leave it out to cool, often as I'm running out the door to work in the morning. I put them away immediately when I get home at the end of the day. I'...

TP etiquette requires ALWAYS unrolling from the top forwards. That's why hotels do it the "right" way and then make a little neat triangular fold to let you know you have a fresh roll to use. I can...

I recently volunteered at an animal shelter, and they said they really appreciate donations of old sheets and bedding for the animals. If you have sheets or blankets that are too old/worn/stained f...

What a great story! I was burdened with the worst fridge on the planet when I moved into my apt, and I suffered with it for 2 years before I demanded a replacement from the landlord. My old Automat...

I have the Adesso Jumbo architect floor lamp and I think it's great. It was my long-researched solution to having no overhead lighting in a dark apartment. I wanted to feel like I had overhead ligh...

I'll choose paper if I have to. I'll always reuse them. As for refusing bags at the store... I was shopping at Century 21 and said I didn't need a bag for my new purchase (just a couple pair...

I've been using these Reisenthal bags for a couple years now. Picked them up in the checkout line at the Container Store. They are incredible. It seems to be parachute-type material that doesn't ri...

Everyone is travelling for the holiday and New Years, so I'd like to get my friends all back together in the city at a cozy dinner party in my apt (and i do mean COZY in my little place!) maybe mid...

A pomegranite martini would look oh so nice coming at me on that tray.
