I hope their dry-cleaners charge them extra for using them as storage (unless they don't have a lot of clothes and pick up all their orders within a week or so, not leaving them there for months an...
I always wondered if the apple vinegar I found overseas (more specifically vinagre de manzana, I guess) was the same without "cider/sidra" in the title. Is there such a thing as non-cider apple vi...
I'm 5'4" and not with long legs, and I love me some deep couches! I hope to have one at home someday. I hate when I'm over at someone's house, and I feel like I can't really rest on the sofa, ins...
The polar bear comment made me scroll back up in case I missed something like an actual polar bear skin or something, but um, hello, it's a painting? I like it. It's amusing to have this (painted...
Most of the tea I get at East Asian restaurants that I go to with my parents get served in handle-less mugs, and I'm always annoyed at how long it takes before I can take a sip without burning my h...

Thank you for not being all minimalisty-MCM-DWR or even Pottery Barny. It feels like you have the r...
Coming back to Madrid after a visit to CA, I bring the in-laws peanut brittle from See's Candies, because they don't really have that here (there's gurlache, but it's just not the same). I also br...
My parents have a tree, and we all love them, too. Fresh is nice, but I do really love them dried, like a sweet, chewy candy. The dried ones also go into chicken soups and certain sticky rice dis...
omg, I want one. I'm a native English speaker living in a non-English speaking country (Spain) and have relatives in one of the other language countries (wow that sentence sucks). And yeah, most ...
