This is so timely - I was just grumbling this morning about what a pit our apartment has become lately. After living with my boyfriend for 3 years, I've gotten used to looking past this gigantic short-coming of his of not being cleaner. But, there are days when all of a sudden I start noticing just how awful it's gotten. This morning... the cooler with fruit and yogurt from making smoothies with friends on Wed is still sitting in the living room (yes, with the yogurt still in it)... ugh. I swear, he is utterly incapable of seeing anything that's below about waist-level, because once it hits the floor, he doesn't even notice it. Thanks for all the other comments - I'm so glad I'm not the only one! :)

hooray for my little home town that made #1.

Our seven bikes (yes, seven bikes for two people) sit in what would be the dining area if we had a garage (or even a balcony) for the bikes. We bought some bike stands that sit on the floor. You roll the back wheel into them and they hold the bikes upright. We've ended up with our own sort of bike shop in the middle of the apartment, but since it's such a part of who we are, I think it kinda works.

I'm not on the above list either, so I just signed up again. But, to keep things totally confusing, I'm Crawford153 on Flickr. :)

I have a really hard time believing there's anything positive about Whole Foods. They gobbled up my local Wild Oats (which, granted was still corporate, but at least felt smaller and closer-knit), and it has been a nightmare watching all the changes... The store has gotten so cluttered, the amount of pre-packaged items has ballooned, customer service has gotten worse, they discontinued the wooden nickel program, and prices are steadily going up across the board. If it wasn't the easiest option for organic staples (like rice), I'd boycott them and spread my general discontent.

chicken with rice noodles and spinach. or a nice hearty caldereta (filipino stew).
