"Love is friendship set on fire." - Jeremy Taylor
A quote I often texted to my husband when we were dating and I worked it into the slideshow at our wedding with "Burning for You" by B...
The doctors warned my mother that I might lose my hearing at a young age so she started teaching me sign language almost from birth. She still enjoys telling people that when I was very little I w...
I have to have a fan on (must be a fan, radio doesn't do it for me and TV only works if I'm napping on the couch with two cats sprawled across me). I can only fall asleep while laying on my stomac...
Our clutter catcher is the garage though we use the excuse that we just moved (in October!) to justify it. I have been working on getting things moved into the house this week, however.
I was recently introduced to BrylaneHome.com. They have VERY inexpensive curtains (like, 2 panels for $8!) and they are decent quality. I'm about a week away from purchasing temporary curtains fo...
I was looking to get rid of our mismatched nightstands so when I brought home and Asian-looking stool my husband got the bright idea to replace the nightstands with them and put a basket underneath...
No bathroom on the main floor, creepy child's bathroom (with ugly 1970's wallpaper) as a second bathroom, no grass in the backyard (mud pit when it rains), ugly carpet, moldy refrigerator when we f...
Ugh, thanks for reminding me I need to get started on various curtain rod-themed home improvements this weekend. It's not that I'm not looking forward to it, it's that picking out curtains gives m...
My parents gave me a traditional first name spelled differently (Kasandra) with a normal middle name (Lynn). My last name is French and compliments my first name perfectly. I have gotten more com...
We don't eat canned tomatoes anymore (http://www.prevention.com/7foodsthatshouldnever/list/1.shtml) so I'm considering taking up home canning (jarring?) myself.
@Ellinnette in Det: Excellent advice, thank you! I think I'll put an off-white sheer (maybe some of that stuff will little picks and imperfections in the fabric) on both the sliding glass doors a...
My street's name is Mason Dr. Every time I come up on it, ready to turn, I can't help but hear Ellen Muth's line from Dead Like Me : "Ah, Mason... Mason, Mason, Mason..." (there is a charact...
We do a real tree at home and a 1.5ft silver tree in the bathroom. This year I will be decorating a 1.5ft black tree on my desk at work with multi-colored mini ornaments and lights from Target.
The sliding glass door thing is an issue for me, too, but I had already decided to do sheers with draperies. My problem now is what to do with the gigantic window next to the sliding glass door......
When my Ragdoll was little she would destroy my fake tree daily, walking up the rows of branches knocking them off as she went. I finally gave up on the 5-foot fake tree in favor of a tabletop tre...
We don't have kids (yet) but we put out Playmobil toys, a stuffed penguin pillow and the cats get really excited about playing with their stuffed reindeer toy. There is nothing wrong with indulgin...
We moved our cafe table onto the back porch to make room for our 8 foot tree. The chairs aren't outdoors ready so they'll probably go in the garage. I'll admit I'm really sad about not having the...

Would go well, I think, in our Japanese bedroom.

Snappy, but dipped in a mug of hot tea. Deeee-licious!!
The 1st and 4th are my dream chairs for the bedroom reading nook I hope to create next year.
