I used catalog choice and it seems to work pretty well. My main problem with junk mail is the stuff that comes from my two banks, and the few places that I order from (RedEnvelope and ...

Sometimes I will make a cake just so I can eat it for breakfast! Although I would never admit that.

I love this little vase! It reminds me of the old glass my grandmother kept on her window sills.

I love white washed! As it turns out, it's not really my style, but I always like it when I see it. Years and years ago I purchased two pieces of furniture from Gothic and had it whit...

I would love to take one of these to the grocery store and open up packages to find the freshest meats! Or take it to the butcher and make him test the pieces of steak I am interested in. I bet t...

I switched over to the IKEA hangers years ago, but I just started phasing them out in favor of the slim flocked ones from Bed Bath & Beyond. I just don't have the closet space - especially in my s...
