I have been searching for the ideal pitcher for iced tea in the summer. These borosilicate glass pitchers look great - but do you know of one that also has a lid that can seal out refrigerator smells/tastes??

I painted over the old speckled linoleum in our small upstairs bathroom but it didn't stand up to foot traffic. Then I repainted it and put a clear coat over it, but the clear coat turned an awful yellow color and ruined the pretty silver-blue-green color. What did I do wrong?

I am a big fan of donating items to our local thrift store, but when there are items that the thrift store doesn't take, freecycle has been great! For example, we had an old double-size box spring (no mattress) and an old TV - both items that our local thrift store does not accept. I put them on freecycle, had 5+ inquires in less than 24 hours, set the item on our front porch and gave our address to the selected recipient and by the time I came home from work it was gone! Saved us the time and energy of hauling it elsewhere and the recipients were thrilled to get what they needed for free!

I used Potty Scotty (pottyscotty.com) training pants with my son. They were great and much less expensive than some of the other cloth brands that I looked at.
