I think this calls for a House Tour!

Toile comes from the French word for fabric. Fabric printed with a decorative pattern similar to the one seen on those dishes is often called toile de joie.

Ceramics printed with the patterns seen above are called Transferware, due to the printing processed used.

This, along with Anna Dorman's home, is probably my favorite house tour on AT.

Love! Where is the leaf pillow on the sofa in the second photo from?

Oooh, I want the recipe for that Senegalese stew Danae mentions. That sounds tasty!

I love this place! It's very put-together.

It would have been nice to see the floor plan.

I would suggest either cranberry juice concentrate or pomegranate molasses. These are both simply reduced fruit juice. The cranberry is very tart, while the pomegranate is more sweet-tart. You can get cranberry concentrate at health food stores, or even the Vitamin Shoppe, and pomegranate molasses is available at middle eastern specialty shops.

"Filing" is SUCH a good idea! I'll definitely try that one-- it's so annoying to have to dig to the bottom of the pile to find the one shirt you want.

Looks good! Is 3 tbsp sugar really enough to sweeten a whole bag of fresh cranberries?

I LOVE this place! It looks so comfortable and friendly, without being cluttered. Well done!

Where are the bedroom sconces from? They are so quirky--love them.

I made this right after they first posted the recipe-- it was very tasty and pretty! BUT: you really do have to take it out of the freezer and eat it after two hours. Otherwise it becomes rock-solid. And if you let it sit out to defrost, the outside melts while the inside is still hard. So I'd definitely recommend this for a dinner party, where you could eat the whole thing in one sitting. It was delicious.

I LOVE the oushak rug in the living room! Where is it from? (Forgive me if it's listed in the article...I did read through the sources, but I didn't see it.)

Salads! It's amazing in Greek salad, or in any simple salad with a lemony dressing. It's also nice in a salad of sliced cucumber, mashed feta, lemon, olive oil, and mint. Yum yum.

I feel your pain. This looks a lot like my NYC rental bathroom. Except my floor is pink. Ugh.

I can't wean my cat off of her (rather unsightly) cardboard box. Oh well! This is a nice option, though.
