YAY it's about time they joined the rest of the shows and channels offered on Hulu. I ALWAYS am checking out episodes...it allows me to watch what and when i want to...even if a breaking news "brea...

@ asprygal: I never thought to use it as a slicer for anything other than eggs, but I LOVE this idea. :) Thanks

There is something very comforting when I look at the "vintage" egg slicer. I just brings back subtle images of German summers, watching my mom or aunts make potato salad or egg salad, or Sunday mo...

Our Pomeranian is too little to jump up onto beds or sofas. So she's always invited up, but now in her old age (she's 10) she seldom accepts the invite. LOL Yep, we ask her to come sit with us and ...

My mom still does this. Ha. And we live in Suburbia (S. FL). The neighbors look at her weird, but it's what she's always done -- even in communist Germany, and it's what she'll keep doing until she...

While it looks very organized and clean, life seldom works out to be this cooperative. I like it, but it could lend itself to look even more chaotic if some days are overloaded. And then it would j...

I love honey and almond putter - I imagine it's similar to honey with peanut butter, I don't like pb so almond butter is my alternative. I know this is a food blog, but you could also ...

I love steamed brown rice from Thai takeout, though I'm not sure if it's guilt free this way, I'm sure they sneak some butter or something in there.

I love that Mrs. Obama broke with tradition, and instead created an opportunity for education.

I think you should keep 4, since you plan to rent it out or move soon. People can always create more counter space....chopping board over sink, using a dining table if need be. But it's a lot harde...

I like the gender neutral colors - yellow, green, and purple. If I ever decide to have kids, I will definately embrace one of those colors for nursery and such.

I plan to get back to basics. Buy the necessary items, a simpler life will = a more fullfilling life.

I've got a reason, how about the simple fact of respecting mother nature? People who just toss their tree on the side of the road - LONG before bulk pickup is due is just such a sorry image. We buy...

If only these kinds of "drop off bins" didn't look like humungo trash cans, than maybe people would have less of a stigma or stop stereotyping those who purchase second hand clothes.

I am hosting a small themed movie night. We agree on a theme - tonight we've agreed to "old school Disney" (we're in our early 20s) - and everyone who is coming is bringing their pick and we'll sit...

That's freakin awesome!! That woman in the neighborhood video is rough with that poor piece of ribbon, lol like a misbehaving child. LOL
