Thanks, everyone for your comments! It is kind of hard to tell in the photo, but the wood finish is painted a dark red. I think for the time being I am going to leave the chairs. The fabric is growing on me and I haven't found another fabric that I love enough to pay $800 to get reupholstered. I do love the shape of the chairs. My current plan is to slipcover my ottoman in this red fabric. http://www.calicocorners.com/product/designer fabrics for the home/shop fabrics by color/red/musad brown-red.do?search=basic&keyword=musad&sortby=priceAscend&page=1 Apartment Therapy New York | Reupholster or Leave It?

Never tried this, but we also use the gogobabyz carseat dolly that turns the carseat into a stroller. It makes airport travel a little easier. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | All-in-one Car Seat Stroller |

I'm curious about the availability of organic produce at costco and non-CAFO or organic meats, etc. Apartment Therapy Re-Nest | Green at Costco? |

we used a pack n play for the first six months. It was small and had a changing table attached that we used all the time. We were able to store things under the bassinett attachment. We've moved and since bought a real crib. The pack n play folds up compactly now and we use it when traveling to grandmas. Much better than a bassinett that only gets a few months use.

We bought a baby bathtub and never used it. We ended up using one of those yellow bear sponges you get for $5 at any baby store in the kitchen sink. So much easier. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Survey: Bathing your Baby |

I'm relatively new to the whole organic/local movement, but I am really enjoying the book. It is so informative and inspiring. It all sounds great but what about those of us who may not have easy access to local dairies? What if time/cost, etc keeps us from making an extra stop at yet another store to find the most "local" organic milk. I read an article (can't remember if it was posted here) on how eating local may not always be the most "green" thing if we have to make an extra trip to buy 1 thing, which would be my situation when trying to find organic and local milk. I'm just trying to rationalize this in my head and decide where to draw the line. I see the obvious health benefits of drinking organic milk and plan to continue to do so, and would love to find organic and local, but if it's not easy, is it really worth it? I think I may have to stick with my large organics milk corporation... Apartment Therapy Re-Nest | Re-nest Book Club: Chapters 7 8 (Got Milk?) |

Great looking cookies! I tried out the egg yolk glaze on my sugar cookies and they turned out great! I will definitely be making them again. There is a great tutorial here. http://thepioneerwomancooks.com/2007/12/my_favorite_christmas_cookies_from_childhood_and_beyond.html Apartment Therapy The Kitchen | Holiday Baking: Top 5 Cookie Decorating Ideas |
