I would not say that letting a 9 year old take public transportation in NYC is any different from taking it in any other metro area. The problem I have is that a 9 year old is still a child. Why do...

We just try to convey to our preschooler that you keep your things picked up and your bed neat because it is a good thing to do and it shows respect for others by not being sloppy. We have modeled ...

I like the way it looks (minus the canary yellow) and the length would be fine for our house, but the problem I have with it is that it just doesn't look very sturdy. I can picture the top caving i...

I love how large it is! Great idea.

I love this fan! It would look great in any room in my house and it isn't one of those items you can only use when your kids are little.

The clutter would drive me crazy!

I love the hearts. I also really like the monsters, but my super girly girl would have to have the pink heart set.

we leave ours on, especially if we are going to be gone. The tiny amount of energy does not make me feel guilty since I am using a CFL.

I would make mango smoothies with cinnamon and yogurt. I would make mango-cinnamon popsicles. Finally, I would eat a lot of the mangoes all by themselves!

I love this! I wish my girls were old enough for me to get them a loft bed. Maybe I can implement the idea on a lower bed. Hmmm...

My husband and I would love to own our own home one day just to be able to do anything we want to it, but right now, with housing market the way it is, we are glad to be renters who can move anywhe...

I just started shopping with a list, and I think it has saved me a lot. That said, I still spend around two hours doing my weekly grocery shopping. I have to drive about 40 miles to get to a natura...

I just lay down newspaper and then wet it and that kills all the weeds and also brings lots and lots of worms to the surface. The newspaper just breaks down and then you can plant whatever you want...

This would be perfect! I love the wall mounted one since it looks nice and it wouldn't take away any floor space.

Sometimes people love to read design blogs (like apartment therapy) but can not afford the huge price tag for the "real" piece. So, they buy a knock off. Maybe they even buy it at Target. To imply ...

This sounds like a dream! My husband and I have really wanted to do this, but having two small children has stopped us. Maybe this is the push we need!

I forgot to add that when I laid down wet newspaper to kill all the grass, it almost completely decomposed and attracted hundred of wiggly red worms. My other garden has few worms. Apparently, the ...

I actually have a book by Patricia Lanza called, "Lasagna Gardening". It was printed in 1998 from the publishers of Organic Gardening magazine. It is a really neat book since it tells you step by s...

I am getting kind of sick of not being able to see the slide shows. I also hate the new album format. Ok...... I love this room. It is cute and sweet, but not overly so. I reall...

So the plastic chips are made from petroleum right? Replacing water for petroleum doesn't sound like the best idea to me.
