I miss Veronica Mars!!! Oh, rumor has it that Rob Thomas is writing a movie! YIPPY! I was wondering the same thing about this image but thought it may be a Alexander Rodchenko print because of th...

Love the real tree...can't beat the smell and it's lively branches. Plastic isn't the same. I have the same theory about fake flowers...has to be real or no deal!

Saskia is correct. Museum display standards for kimono installation recommends low light, low humidity and to wrap the dowel/rod with an inert material prior to hanging it. The acidic issue menti...

I love Pimms! It's really great with cucumber and apples. Gotta have the apple wedges.

I agree with the more egg yolks the creamier ice cream bit. I followed a vanilla bean recipe that had 6 egg yolks. It turned out fabulous! Before that, all my other attempts created rock hard ic...

Kudos for living with style in such a small space!

Hmmm, wouldn't chopsticks in a glass do the same thing? I usually prop a few chopsticks in my dishrack and hang the bags on that.

Why not a chandelier with candles, would that be against code?

I'm in!

Love the color...
