I wasn't in Florence, but I did just get back from a week in Italy. I went to Lucca, the Cinque Terre, and Lake Como, and highly recommend all three. The town of Lucca is lovely, with the intact ...

Oops..re-reading, I now I *do* see the reference to stainless appliances, and definitely agree with previous commenters that white is better--and I do love the stove!

Am I missing something? I didn't read anything about not liking the kitchen or wanting to replace the stove--I thought that they were only wanting ideas for floor options...? I would go for somet...

What about tapes? I have a whole collection of reel-to-reel tapes that belonged to my dad--is there a tape deck to mp3 converter? I know there are some for cassettes, but these are 8" reels.

Love the book and onesie ideas! I hate the games and all the silly stuff--but at my daughter's baby shower, there were only a couple of games and they weren't too bad. (But, really, you *don't* n...

Charleston WV: Taylor Books Ellen's Ice Cream Sitar of India and, beyond those three, Capitol Market and all the independent growers who sell there, Bluegrass ...

I see it as more of an outdoor chair than a living room chair, but I would love it on my terrace!

I really like the feel of this apartment and the way it's arranged. I do have a slight quibble with this and several other entries that show stairs down to a basement or up to an attic. There's a...

Habitat for Humanity's Re-Store might be an option.

NC--Winston-Salem, Asheville, Wilmington PA--Pittsburgh or Philadelphia TX--Austin! Va--Richmond or, possibly, Va Beach NM--Santa Fe, Taos ????? Because, reall...

IF you think your three year old is ready to sleep in the top bunk, I would consider getting a bunk bed with a futon on the bottom/twin bed on top and the crib. The futon in the couch position wou...

The older I get, the more I realize that "stuff" is just stuff. If you love it and can afford it without agonizing over it, fine, but the happiness it brings you is only temporary.

I love this, and would really like to see more pictures!

Gallupgirrl, I think both of these are pretty reasonable, especially the sale prices, and they carry fabrics that are hard for me to find locally, like Mexican oilcloth (fashionfabrics) and 100% wo...

I've had the same waterbed mattress for over 20 years and I love it. It's comfortable and in the winter I can keep the room cool but when I get into bed it is always warm. I have the very basic, ...

My local Sams Club has this for under $10/lb.

I have that Ikea rack and highly recommend it. No, it's not a new concept, but this is better than some I've had before. It is very stable, holds a lot of clothes, and is really adjustable as wel...

I second/third/fourth the labyrinth, a water feature, bigger scale and more color. Maybe you could start near the door, and carve out a private sitting area, using the trees and plants as a screen...

Camping! The only time I've used these was on a 10-day rafting/camping trip in Idaho. I took pre-cooked bacon, too! I don't use either at home, but five days down the river, those scrambled eggs...

Wonderful house, wonderful collections, great photos! I *really* wish I knew this lady, because I think this is who I want to be when I'm 89!
