I thought the view through the window there looked like Tower Grove! We actually are renting in Tower Grove Heights right now and are hoping to stay in the area! Dabney's January Cure: Week Three January Cure Diaries |

Also, I meant to ask what part of St. Louis you live in? I also live in St. Louis and my boyfriend and I are considering buying in the near future and a space like yours is something we have thought about. Dabney's January Cure: Week Three January Cure Diaries |

My boyfriend says I am a hermit crab for bags. I use one until I outgrow it (collect enough receipts etc. to fill it up) then I will just grab the important things- wallet, keys, cell phone- and start a new bag. Once when i was out of the country visiting my sister for a few weeks he decided to do a deep clean and organization of our room for me as a surprise. when I got home he declared that I had "a problem" because of the number of mostly full bags I had. One of them had a container of fish food that had since opened and dumped its contents into the bottom of the bag.... Dabney's January Cure: Week Three January Cure Diaries |

I don't think that loquaciouslaura was saying you weren't free to make alternative suggestions. I think that she, like I did, felt that your suggestion was insulting in tone to Sarah and the choices that she has made so far. What Size Rug for Large Family Room Layout? Good Questions |

I love eating and using dates. The international grocery store across the street has pitted "Baking Dates" that are essentially a date puree.( http://www.amazon.com/Pitted-Baking-Dates-ziyad-13oz/dp/B000LRFY6W ) Does anyone know how I can use these in recipes? I never see instructions such as "1/3 cup Date Puree" but rather "1/2 Cup Dates" or "12 Large dates, pureed" Baking With Dates: Which Variety Reigns Supreme? |

I have the same make of vacuum as you, Daniel. My little Boston thinks he has to move right along with me all through the kitchen. I am always terrified any time I am cooking with onions or raisins that he is going to beat me to anything that gets dropped. Daniel's Gorgeous Kitchen Re-Design Kitchen Tour |

I have had a Mint Julep Iced Tea before that was very good. My friend actually bought a Mint Julep concentrate that had instructions to make the iced tea as well. I found this recipe that sounds good as well: http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/mint-julep-iced-tea-10000000346753/ How Can I Turn Mint Juleps Into a Punch?Good Questions |

I found juniper berries at my local Cost Plus World Market. I believe they were 99 cents for a little ziplock- it would be worth the cost for sure if you were interested in experimenting with the flavor. Brine & Beyond: Juniper Berries |

I see bread machines (Some still sealed in their original boxes) all the time at flea markets/thrift stores. I know I have read somewhere about people using bread machines for every step but the baking. It might be worth picking one up to use for the knead/rise times and pulling the dough out to form into whatever loaf you want to make. Best Budget Stand Mixer for Making Bread? Good Questions |

Can anyone tell me the dimensions on the bolsters for the case study bed? (bottom depth, height, top depth) I have also looked at the Tillary sofa ( http://www.westelm.com/products/tillary-sofa-f985/?pkey=csofas-sectionals-couch ) and would like to get dimensions on the bolster pillows on that if possible. Thanks so much for any help! Case Study Daybed or Piazza Sofa in Boston? Good Questions |

I had a friend drop by with a few rolls of toilet paper when I first picked up the keys to my new apartment. Everything I owned was at my parents' house 35 min away and I had actually been contemplating where I would go if I needed to use the restroom. It was thoughtful and something that I put to almost immediate use. 5 Unique Items to Give as Housewarming Gifts |

One way that also works is if you use one slice of bread and a sharp knife. Cut most of the way down to the bottom of the slice of bread, but leave a little bit attached (so you are making one slice into two thin thin slices) and then slip your cheese into that bread pocket. As long as you leave a little space on the edges and put the closed part of the slice down, you shouldn't have a problem! Lunch Tip from Jamie Oliver: Toaster Cheese Sandwiches |
