In this era of multi-tasking, this is a welcome (and wise!) quote (well, maybe except for the bit about the lipstick and the husband...). Thanks!

I love this! So much cool-looking, unusual stuff, and you've arranged it beautifully! I'd love to see more of this (esp. the art) more close up eventually (hint hint to AT editors). I was wondering about the rug, too, and had assumed that it was from super fancy rug source. Nice job!

In DC, a new one that I've seen recently is "penthouse level." I equate "penthouse" with the 25th floor of a building with amazing views of the cityscape...not the top floor of my somewhat humble (though beloved) six level building. Real estate agents...

It always drives me nuts when people say that renting is "throwing money away." Buying a place may be a better long term investment but you're certainly getting something in return (a roof over your head!) and, as many folks have pointed out, renting simply works better for a lot of people.

Off topic completely....I have that same rug! I like it a lot but have had it for a few years and it's STILL shedding. Not sure if this picture was from someone who had the rug but if so, how do you clean it and is yours still shedding?

Super nice; also love the art and the way it's presented. Would love to see a little more of the kitchen.

What is it about lima beans? I also HATED them as a kid and would feed them to our dog, under the table (who liked them, to my surprise). I now eat pretty much everything except for...aspic.

Oysters are the best! I loved your mention of the Grand Central Oyster Bar--it is such a classic and authentic place. I went their once as a kid with my dad, once in college when I was a camp counselor, and very recently with my boyfriend on his 50th birthday. "Foodies" may not love it but it's great for people watching and the oysters I had were pretty tasty.

Cool house! I'm crazy about the rug, too... Can you tell us where you got it? It seems to be a hit.

Really nice place! I especially like the grouping of pictures on the wall. The whole place looks well thought out...but not overly curated.

The trend that I'm SO sick of is crystal chandeliers all over the place. It was kind of cute/fun at first (in a little girl's pink bedroom! in a kitchen!) but now the whole thing seems out of control and they are everywhere.
