I'm glad someone mentioned Lachine. It's where I live, and although it's considered "far" for those who live in the heart of downtown, it's only a twenty minute drive downtown. The west island definitely should have been mentioned somewhere :)

My bed is against the window as well. I would rather have it against a wall, but my room is small and i don't have any other options.
I have curtains running almost the whole length of the wall and I'm going ti be installing a roman shade as well to block out light. I also plan on getting a four poster bed and i think that, combined with the curtains will go really well together.

I don't have any butter! And seeing how butter is kind of the main ingredient. I don't think margarine will cut it. Even if it is Becel
But I agree with adding the garlic and shaping them differently.

@Bungalow24 - I never thought about writing the date in a cookbook, but I think that's such a clever idea and I might just start it.

They should have put the shelves on the wall facing the fridge and moved the artwork to where they put the shelves.

I agree that it can never be DONE.
But, I think that there comes a time when your home doesn't really need as much work, and it's as complete as it'll ever be.

@ nccata - Walmart IS your friend especially if you're on a budget! And so is Zellers (Canada only)!!!! It really peeves me off when people diss these stores! NOT EVERYONE IS ROLLING IN MONEY!

And I have the Jonsbo Egby Lamp personally I love it as a bedside lamp, it gives off enough light to be able to read and everything, but if you were using it as your sole lighting source in a large room I would not go with it.
