I have a recurring dream in which I have moved into a new apartment and it seems big and wonderful and cheap and then all of a sudden I find really terrible things wrong with it - like the shower i...

I love the C&B whiteware. I have several platters that I've used for years and had no problem with breaking or chipping. (Maybe it is an issue with new pieces?) Working with a catere...

I only ever had frying pans until someone gave me the sautuese that came with my pots as a gift. That sautee pan has changed my life! I honestly believe that I became a better cook wi...

I love it! One of the few featured apartments that I could see myself living in without any changes. Making that wall/cabinet between the kitchen and living room was genius. I wish I...

I never really considered the outdoor shower until renting a beach house with friends. I would say that over the course of a summer 90% of our showering gets done outside, even though we all have ...

I have one of those and I use it all the time! Since I am mostly cooking for one, I will use it to make a few veggie sausages, cook a pancake or two, sautee mushrooms, etc.

I've been having trouble since switching to all-natural peanut butter. I pack my sandwiches and get to work and a good amount of the PB has leaked out of the sandwich! In an effort to...

In NYC - My favorite was the small one at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza right by the UN. It was easy to conqour in a short lunch break, and had everything I wanted. (And also had a Yuma's stall...I thi...

Maybe I'm just over-sensitive, but this seems kind of in bad taste today, given the Air France accident...

I hate shoes in the house, so I think these would also be great for guests who are uncomfortable taking their shoes off in your home.

I wouldn't buy one, but I like the concept so I voted Hot. After working with a caterer for a while, I learned some good cutting/chopping techniques, but I still tend to make a mess of...

It is what it is!!

I selected 6 in the survey, because I think that is a good number - 6 people can still have one conversation, which is nice. It's easy to cook for 6 - I can still use my smaller pots and bowls, et...

As a renter, I really hated my kitchen flooring, so I replaced it with inexpensive IKEA flooring. (Last year when a long-time tenant moved out, they totally renovated the kitchen, so I didn't thin...

I gave up on "normal" shampoo & conditioner a few months ago. I tried just water, but I cannot get over the hump of my hair being that greasy. It looks gross and feels gross and doesn't look nice...

I do have a set of glasses that belonged to my Grandfather that I don't use, and I don't let guests use them either. For a while I have been collecting vintage china pieces and one o...

My mice seem to come and go. I did two things: 1) Invested in a Rat Zapper - www.ratzapper.com - it is humane in that it kills them immediately and you don't have to see or touch any...

Just call Brad and ask him! Seriously, I think that Brad Boles works at the Zarin's store. Maybe you call there and ask him what paint/treatment he used.

I would change the locks, but I'm paranoid and don't even let my super have the keys to my apartment. Also, if you have insurance, see if this is covered somehow. My renters insurance...

I read the article in New York, went to Trader Joe's a few days later and there was only spagetti left! The pasta shelves were completely cleared out! And if that wasn't annoying enou...
