Our house is full of poorly-done DIY projects from the previous owners. The worst is our bathtub. Apparently it had hard water stains or something, so they decided to paint it with som...

We store ours in a cool, dark spot in the basement inside cardboard boxes. They keep longer if you don't wash the dirt off before storing. Our root veggies are from our CSA so they come to us dirty...

those patterns would look great in our kitchen!

Apple cider doughnuts are one of the few things left that I still really miss since being diagnosed with celiac disease. I'd love to find a gluten-free recipe that works. (Or better yet, find a glu...

I met her and saw her work at Craft Boston a few years ago, and have four of her water tumblers, which are tall, handle-less drinking cups. Her work is absolutely beautiful, and inclu...

I have a perpetual categorical list on my fridge. it's a pad by RealSimple that I got a Target last year and has common items pre-printed with checkboxes, plus lines for additions. It's been so hel...

I use fiber-reactive dye like procion dyes. you can get them in bulk depending on how much you need and you can also dye in the washing machine. The colors bind to the fiber and don't run. mrs yow'...

We're turning our garage into studio space as well, but because of poorly-planned plumbing above (the kitchen renovation done by the previous owners put the kitchen sink directly above the garage d...

The kindergarten teachers at the school where I worked last year did something similar in the hallway with post-its, but in a star shape. Each one had a quote from a child about something they were...

millet is delicious. But teff, used in injera, is a different grain. It is much, much smaller than millet. They are both very nutritious grains, and millet makes a good couscous or barley substitut...

I make turnips (and radishes, or the awesome harukei turnips in early summer) similar to art, above. Sautee in a butter/olive oil mixture, then add wine, vinegar, and maybe a bit of sugar or ...

We'll be enjoying the last fresh veggies from our summer CSA, which ends next week: Brussels sprouts, kombucha and butternut squash, kohlrabi... I'll probably also make a pot roast and plum cake.
