Picked up two travel art "suitcase" kits for our upcoming plane trip for 1/2-price; only ones on sale at our Target. Very nice pieces. We also purchased the patterned masking tape and am amazed at my boys' creativity. Kid Made Modern: A Visit with Todd Oldham |

We have a Senseo with the coffee grounds in a paper pod. Works well, tastes pretty good, & can compost the pods easily! I'm not certain what happened with the Senseo vs. the others, but it's a good alternative to the other pods/kcups abounding. K-Cups and Coffee Pod Systems: Love Them or No, Thanks? |

@taherold: Yes, it is. Pressure-treated wood can leach those chemicals into the soil, and then into food, especially root crops (carrots, beets, radishes, etc). Cedar, concrete, cinderblocks, etc, are great for raised beds. Growing Squares: A Kitchen Garden |

Prang watercolors were what I had growing up and what my kids use. I've found a local place selling the set of 16 for under $10; it's worth it as both my children will paint for up to a hour. The Case For Using Good-Quality Art Supplies |
