I shop at the Cambridge location when I need meat, and I love it! Their cuts are always delicious and great quality.

Do I have to point out that Czechoslovakia doesn't exist anymore?

I'm loving that this actually still looks like a church. I've seen a number of condo conversions done to churches in the Boston area, and most of the interiors lose any semblance of the original c...

I think one of these might have to go in our office when I move next month.

yay, this is super inspirational! My new apartment has the smallest kitchen I've ever lived with, so I LOVE seeing posts like this. I can only hope our kitchen will look anything close to this ne...

I agree with previous comments that changing simple things like the hardware and light fixture will go a long way. You have the nice bonus of having a great open space to begin with. Honestly tho...

Can you paint your window sashes? Painting those something less stark than the white would look nice. If they are vinyl, vinyl-safe paints exist that won't damage the windows.

I think a large floor plant is a great way to warm up a room if you have the space. But I also agree that the on in the image above is a bit overwhelming to the space. What are some people's favo...

Hi, Michelle here. Thanks for the tips so far! Definitely some ideas coming out that were totally lost on me. I think the idea of adding a ribbon stripe to coordinate with the red is a great ide...

This is a picture or plate rail, rather than a chair rail. Use it as such! But I agree if you're set on some larger piece of artwork, that it's fine to hang it OVER the rail.

That looks like the same Hemnes canopy bed available now, just in a new color. Seems like it's gone through several colors over the years. I love that bed, but I'm always concerned about how stur...

Guess a lot of people need more beauty sleep than I, haha. On the weekend I'm up late anyway, but if neighbors are making noise, I crank up my fan and sleep peacefully. If I'm having a party I tr...

Oh my, all these succulents are absolutely gorgeous!

I wonder if you installed a pocket or bifold door, or even reversed the way it swung, would you be able to install a sink in the bathroom at some point? If so, I'd leave the vanity as is for now a...

bepsf, not all of us have range hoods. I haven't had one in either of the last two apartments I've been in, and the bottom of the line one in my college apartment was barely better than none anyway.

Totally gorgeous.

YES!! Living in a densely populated area, parking at grocery stores is at a premium unless it's 6am or 10pm (or later), so I do most of my grocery shopping on my way home from the subway. At my c...

Love arugula pesto!

Although the chandelier is pretty, I'm imaging how dust immediately glues itself to every surface of our bathroom after a steamy shower...cleaning nightmare!! Otherwise I love it and so glad they ...
