I saw a broken keyboard, I bought a broken keyboard. (Had to)
I bought a rotary phone from a church sale and painted it a cute color. It's over 50 years old and still works!

What the WHAT?! This will make drinking my moonshine on the go much easier. J/K. Once it goes down in price and/or is available in stores, I would totally buy this for thin smoothies, coffee, juices, impromptu sippy cups, etc.

It's kinda odd; my spice cupboard is totally disorganized, mismatched containers of different size & make, baggies, tubs, little bottles for oils, etc. BUT, I know exactly where everything is. My delightful sister is always introducing me to new spices


Spice Cupboard Style: What Do Your Spices Reveal About You?

Did anyone ever stop to consider that maybe some of us LIKE pepper?
I love black pepper...on eggs, on veggies, in gravy, etc. I don't switch to another spice because I'm not going for the flavor of another spice. I'm going for the comfortable heat & spice provided by the little grinds of black pepper.
Of course, there are exceptions; like using white pepper for lighter colored & more delicate dishes.
What's up with this anti-pepper crusade?

Squids. You're welcome.

J/K, our local intl. market has it on occasion. If you don't see it there, ask! They might know how & where

Hmmm, I just use a dry, then a damp, then a dry paper towel real quick. It's a George Foreman grill, not an operating table. :-)

I am overcome with want. Beautiful! I love it! I love their efficient use of space & light. I love the staircase. I love their dresser.
If I were photographing that house, I would have to resist the strong urge to invite the owner's to stand outside while i changed the locks :-)

It's kinda a dick move. Because it's good for Amazon's business doesn't make it any less of a dick move.
A friend of mine is a small business owner. She was hoping that this would actually drive people into her store; where she also hoped they would realize how wonderful her shop is, and how they're not all that more expensive than Amazon

I, too, came out with wine slush. What's the freezing wine trick?
I also freeze stock. And I make concentrated stock that I freeze in ice cubes


Wait, You Can Freeze That? Wine, Eggs, Cheese and More

I wonder how sales of the bed will be affected! I'd like to see an AP post about that whole place. Very pretty!

Um....I don't think that will have a significant impact on the product's life. Especially in comparison to it's current useable life. Honestly, when was the last time you threw away a tv because it malfunctioned. Compare that to the last time you "upgraded" to a new tv.
How much of what you own do you throw away from over use? (honest question)
The exception that comes to mind is furniture. That stuff is garbage. But their old stuff probably doesn't last much longer than the new, less resources, stuff. Should WalMart stop trying to conserve resources because people thing that extra stuff has extra value?


Is Your Stuff Falling Apart? Blame Walmart.
