The only guests I ever have in my >400 sq ft apartment are of the "gentlemen caller" variety. I own 3 bath towels, and two smaller hand towels. I try to have at least one clean towel on hand for sa...

-you know the exact dimensions of every nook and cranny in case you find a piece of furniture that could fit in there. - it only takes you a few minutes to look EVERYWHERE for something

chusmabilly: Try rubbing a tiny bit of oil on the gasket, the rubber ring between the top and bottom chambers. Coffee isn't making it to the top because the seal isn't good. If t...

my mom just got a bigger jug so that she only had to dump it once and all the soap would be rinsed.

I stacked a 2x2 one onto a 4x2 and use that as a room divider. It's a visual divide more than a physical barrier, but in my >500 sq ft apartment it reads really well. It creates a clear definition ...

I like ephcee am Canadian and had never thought a chesterfield was a specific type of couch. I just thought it was an old-timey word for Sofa. I learned something new today!

I use the library for cookbooks all the time, and the internet too. I do have one cube of my expedite for cook books though. I love the pictures and the inspirations... and some of them (espe...

$$$$$$ geez! No way!

Another vote! I love this brand of yogurt. The lemon flavor is my favorite, but I also really like the coconut.

I used to hate vacuuming until I moved into a place with no carpets. Turns out I just hate cleaning floors period. I feel like I'm always sweeping and/or mopping! I easily sweep the floor onc...

Watkins works kind of like Avon. They have a great website where you can find a local seller, once you're in touch with them I'm sure they will order you all the fancy mustard you want. Good ...

I'm a lot more willing to give things a good effort now, if you're a picky eater, I reccommend you read "The Man how Ate Everything", it really opened my eyes to all the foods I might otherwise not...

I have a floating shelf up behind my sofa level with the top. It's not only great because it elimanates a need for side tables (which I do not have room for) but it also conceals a useful storage s...

I don't have a microwave anymore either. We unplugged it one day when we were cleaning the floor and forgot to plug it back in. Two weeks later when I went to melt some butter I realized this...
