We have an industrial pipe-themed den in our home, featuring a curtain rod and two shelving units built by my husband. It's a versatile, relatively cheap and easy material to work with! http://circadee.com/2012/04/27/evolving/ Plumbing Pipe Design Roundup: From Barn Doors to Bedframes |

The red in this kitchen makeover is pretty awesome, too: http://circadee.com/2011/11/17/did-you-see/. Really tied the red accents in with the appliances without being too over the top. Seeing Red: Bold Accents in the Kitchen |

Saw this on lifehacker last week and tried it over the weekend, because runny eggs and avocados are two of my most favorite things. I'd suggest hollowing out a bit more than you'd expect, because my egg whites mostly ran over. They cooked faster than the yolks in the pan which made for a messy clean up. I topped with sea salt, red pepper flakes, and a dash of curry (because that's how I like my guacamole). If you cook in a covered pan on the stovetop, it should take about 5-6 minutes, a little longer if you like your yolks more firm. A piece of toast is a must for soaking up all the extra goodness that you can't get onto your fork! Healthy & Hearty Breakfast Idea: Egg Baked In an Avocado Lifehacker |

We just had our kitchen remodeled and have red Big Chill appliances - we love them! They have yet to come out with a microwave though, so curious if anyone has found a efficient, not-huge retro-looking microwave that would complement our new look. Get The Look: A Retro Kitchen |

I wait for Troeg's Mad Elf each winter. While I could definitely drink it during the summer, it feels more appropriate for cold weather (since it's on the heavy side and high in alcohol content). Plus, don't things feel more special when you have to wait for them? Summer Ales & Winter Lagers: Why Are Beers Seasonal? Beer Sessions |

Greece! Went there on a 12 day honeymoon and ate constantly, yet managed to come back a few pounds lighter. Everything was fresh and not exactly what we expect from eating Greek food in the states. I've always loved Mediterranean food, so eating feta and olives with the Acropolis in site was unforgettable, wine tasting on Santorini was great and I long for another meal from Kouzina, a restaurant on Syros in the Cyclades.

We make smaller holes and serve them egg side down, so it almost just looks like plain toast. Hence their name in our house - Egg Surprise! I often season with curry, cumin or a healthy dose of freshly ground pepper. Egg in a Basket from Joy of Oh Joy! Breakfast with a Blogger |

Growing up, my mom used our microwave like a breadbox, always storing freshly baked goods inside. My friends knew when they came over the microwave to look for brownies, cookies or bread. Warming Food and...? How Do You Use Your Microwave? |

I always love Massaman Curry for some reason. Perfect amount of heartiness and spice. I usually order it from the nearest Thai place, but I should probably learn how to make it myself What Are Your Favorite Hangover Foods? |
