The Western link seems broken?

We have them the opposite way, sheers closest to the windows, as these are almost always drawn, and thicker decorative (and light blocking) curtains further away from the window. These are over a patio door in our bedroom so during the day we usually have the thicker ones pinned back and they frame the sheers.

Unfortunately, trying to find a long lasting, quality cfl bulb that is dimmable is near-impossible which reduces potential energy savings.

I also have used the shop local function for a while, I just wish you could shop for a particular TYPE of thing within those local shops - it only shows you the most recent 100 updated shops. If you're somewhere with a LOT of shops and you're looking for something specific, not too helpful. Also it only searches for the word you use and doesn't cross reference "Oregon" for "Portland" for example - so shops that don't use your specific word don't seem to be shown.

Can't BELIEVE you didn't mention sublimestitching.com.

Make Nocino (liquer made from green walnuts) and pass it out with a handmade label. If you make it now it will be "ripe" by right around the wedding.

One other note - in a power outage a corded phone will most likely work if your phone line is still working, while a cordless phone will often not because it requires the power AND the phone line to be working.

I grew up without plastic wrap in the late 70's early 80's - and have never bought it. We reuse recycled plastic containers and glass jars of varying sizes so we don't have to buy plastic containers, and like adventurejournalist, wash and reuse plastic bags.

You also want to be sure that there is no way the bottles can leak and mix, causing potentially lethal vapors. . . segregation of things like bleach and ammonia is just as important as locking things out of reach.

I have these and have NEVER used them after 2 years because I can't microwave in them. I guess if I kept dishes at the office it would work, but I'll stick with my glass pyrex dishes with the plastic lids for now. . .
