I don't mean to sound like a fangirl but both LEGO is both singular and plural. Also, what a wonderful way to meld two passions together... I will be voting for Thomas and his amazing designs!

I don't understand all the fuss over the bar spacing either. I grew up in the exact same bed and still have it as my guest room bed.

I have never been shopping on Black Friday... my mom always had us decorating for Christmas. Now, I take my dog to a park or hang out with friends and leave the decorating to Saturday. It really makes a difference in relieving stress post-Thanksgiving.

Has anyone had good luck with LED bulbs? They are a bit pricey and I haven't heard if they are worth the $. I'd really like to go that route (currently 100% CFL) but it's an investment.

I love them all... but I don't think I could live with any of the colors shown except the orange. I don't know if I'm color phobic or if these colors are just too dramatic for my taste.

It's interesting that so many people commented on the sugar content but no one seemed to notice how sodium packed packaged spaghetti sauce is! Because my husband is on a sodium restricted diet we very rarely buy sauce.

I admit I do "redecorate" for seasonal changes. However, I'm usually switching out tablecloths and buying plants for the front porch. The mantle is always a work in progress but I don't buy new things - I simply use things I already have and rearrange them for the time of year.

Yay! I got them all right. That never happens!

As a former Realtor, my colleagues definitely recommended NOT to play music during an open house. I personally think that it depends - sometimes it can make a space seem more inviting and encourage people to linger and contemplate living in the space. The music choice - too loud or too fast a tempo - could prove to be distracting, but I think it should be left up to the homeowner.

My mom had a set of Marcel Breuer chairs (the tubular steel cane style) that mismatched with our kitchen table. I still can't believe she got rid of them.

I love the kitchen cabinets and the amount of storage, but think it's almost too bare. I would love to see the rest of the house... let's get a full tour AT!

I have the exact same bed! I love the night stand... thrift or store bought?

I have used many cracked crocks for planting and saved a beautiful one for my kitchen utensils.

I have tried, and failed, to like the following: pickles, beets, cantaloupe, and oysters. I also detest ketchup. Fennel actually makes me ill - perhaps I have an allergy. I'm with another poster - I really dislike ham but can eat a small amount once per year at a family function.
