Where's the bathroom?

A quick comment: find out from Con Ed if there is an applliance rebate program. You may be able to get a bit more out of this by buying an Energy Star refrigerator.

RE: Frost quote: It's from "The Death of the Hired Hand" and the accurate quote is "Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in." And in the first movie quote, Woo...

It's always a bad idea to give a dog a name that rhymes with "no," something I learned the hard way.

For a laugh, please feature Jill's renovated apartment on Real Housewives of NYC. In a recent episode, Betheny said that if she were to spend a weekend alone in the apartment, she would feel as if...

I love the color of the wall behind the salmon-colored sofa. Anyone know what it is? Thanks.

I have a David Weeks two-arm lamp that I got at his sample sale a few weeks ago. I love the lamp but can't decide if I like the way it looks where it is. I hung a small abstract painting right (a...

An ottoman.

Thank you for sharing this. It's lovely and moving. Your brother sounds like he was a wonderful and loving person. Stacey

Check 1st dibs.

Don't give up on Maharam. You won't need a lot of yardage so check out some of the ebay stores. Some of them will send swatches too. Also, try www.Modern-Fabrics.com . They were written up in R...

Wow! Talk about timing! Right now our closet is an open pit while we replace our flooring. We haven't yet decided how to proceed but will soon. This would be a huge help.

Two summers ago I learned how to make Bonet, a dessert from Northern Italy. It's basically a caramelized baked chocolate custard with crushed amaretti cookies added to the custard before baking. ...

This is lovely, very calming. I too love the white sofa and wonder how people who live in cities deal with the inevitable dirt if they have light colored upholstery (grit that just seems to float ...

I had a bb scare (turned out I don't have them, phew!) but I called Positive Pest Control (1-800-294-3130) and Lyndell (516) 849-5268 and partner came over and did a thorough inspection of my apart...
