@MaryWinn -- I love applejack. i recently found a drink from Martha Stewart that mixes equal parts fresh apple cider and apple jack (about 4oz each) with a dash of bitters (I use sour orange) and a...
what don't I want!
1. a credenza or a desk to hold a computer monitor on top (we gave up the TV in favor of just using our computer, saves space!) and to act as a bar or storage undern...
I'll be completely honest: I've fallen flat on my face for this cure. I have no energy right now.
I recently moved to a new state and that comes with a new job. I'm a high school math ...
I've been loving savory breakfasts lately. There are some intriguing savory oatmeal recipes out there. But lately my favorite is polenta with parmesan, sauteed greens (any kind, but esp. kale), and...
I have a Waring Pro blender that I've had about 8 years now. I love it. It can be loud, but that depends on what you're blending. All the parts come off so you can get it extra clean (I'm always sc...
I'm not really doing anything Halloween-themed with my food this weekend. We're making elderberry syrup and rosehip syrup to keep the cold and flu away this winter. Then I'm just baking chocolate c...
If you knit, check out Mason-Dixon Knitting Outside the Lines by Kaye Gardiner and Ann Shayne. They have a pattern for knitting a swiffer cover. It's pretty cute and functional. AND it uses one of ...
My husband and I made a cross-country move to Denver, CO, in July. We went from a 2 bedroom HOUSE to a 1 bedroom apartment. One of the first things I insisted on was a landing strip! (I read the bo...
My inspiration, strangely enough, is the iron skillet. Seriously. I want my home to be filled with items that are not throwaway. I want the pieces in my home to be built to last generations. The ir...
I'm going to get rid of clothes that no longer fit me. I gained weight due to life happening and I've been waiting to fit into these clothes again. Problem is, I've been holding on to them too long...
I made butter and brought it to a potluck recently. It took my friends a few minutes to figure out exactly what it was. None of them had ever had fresh made butter. I made a convert of them all. I ...
I use a recipe similar to Beth H:
1 bar of grated soap
1 c. of borax
1 c. of washing soda
use 1 TABLESPOON per load. It works great. I also fill a Downy ball w...
I was vegan for 10 years (until recently) and this is one of my top cookbooks for anyone, vegan or not. I'll second the chickpea cutlets. Make the mustard sauce to go with them. They are so freakin...
We just downsized from a 2 bedroom house to a 1 bedroom 600 square foot apartment half way across the country. We've reduced most of our possessions, but I'm still holding on to waaaay too much. An...
I'm going to have to 1348753rd the DivaCup (using currently), Keeper(my previous cup that lasted 5 years or so), or any other brand of menstrual cup! I also used to have major cramps that would kno...
Nauseous-kind of sick: I can only tolerate ritz crackers and ginger ale. If it's cold maybe some ginger, honey, and lemon tea.
Yearly flu/cold/sinus crap that I get: I make the biggest...
I've totally made my own deodorant and I love it. My recipe used/uses mango butter, shea butter, baking soda, and what ever essential oils you like for a nice smell. Melt equal parts of mango butte...
Use it! My mom does the same thing but with her china. She says that she saves it for special occasions. Only, no occasion is ever special enough. Just using something like that or your honey and j...

OH! I almost forgot! the ModKat litterbox! I heart it. and I HATE having the litter box in the bathroom. This one I can put out wherever I have space.
