Seems like such a lovely space and lovely people; I do wish I had a better sense of the layout and entire space from the pictures. Well done, but not thorough. Ashlae & Thom's Eclectic Downtown Loft House Tour |

@dec408, I realized something the other day when my immersion blender container broke: the immersion blender works perfectly in a STEIN! I have a big ceramic one I got for a buck or two from a thrift store, and it's perfect to hold about 2 cups of smoothie and blend without splattering!

Living in a geographic location with good public transit is such a beautiful luxury. I used to love my hour-long GO Train commute to Toronto, and when I lived in Toronto before that the subway was wonderful. I'd rather take the subway than drive any day.

as an addendum, my other thought is resale - in ten years when the dark base cabinet/white uppers is on its way out, are you worried about resale value? Should I Go with Dark Base Kitchen Cabinets and White Uppers? Good Questions |

I love going to stores on Christmas Eve since it's the day after the busiest shopping day and it's DEAD. We did Ikea this Christmas Eve as a 2-hour break from the family craziness, and it was wonderful... quiet... perfect. 4 Tips for Getting In & Out of IKEA Faster |

I wish I knew a good source to get a qualiy 96" long shower curtain in real fabric. I love RH's diamond matelasse but it only comes up to 84", and I'm not spending more than $100 on a curtain elsewhere. Adding Color: 5 Impactful Shower Curtains |

In my particular area and social circle, most couples I know have gotten married relatively young (just finishing university) and many haven't lived together first. Registries are a useful way to know if they really need ice cube trays and towels, or if they've both been living on their own for a few years and only need a few more permanent items A Freewheeling Discussion Of Wedding Registries |

One good thing about being a girl who has a more masculine style is that its easier to agree with your partner when you end up getting married! I'm so glad that both my husband and myself like "masculine" rooms (but not the overstuffed "bachelor pad" look). (Glad to have met a guy who knows what he likes for colour and isn't afraid to tuft a headboard or knock down a wall). Can a Dark Color Palette Be Girly? Good Questions |

I'd whitewash a portion of the walls first, see how it looks. If it's not great then paint the walls and leave the ceiling. Help My Mom Decide: The Great Wood Paneling Debate |
