wow, all the women are working and the husbands/bfs are at home. It's been a year since my live-in bf was laid off. He's had consistent at home side jobs and out of home part time work. I love that he's cooking for me almost every night and does get a lot of work done. I'm just mostly worried about his self esteem. A job is so much more to a man. How do you encourage and support without showing your own insecurities and frustration?

Glad to know we're not alone.

They should've build out the desk too. It looks mismatched.
If they made the effort to do the beautiful bookcase...they should change to desk to white or grey to match.

easy DIY

I didn't watch this season and I'm glad I didn't. Both designs were lacking. I agree that they do look like model homes. Very generic and look like catelog layouts. There are no creative uses of material or anything architecturally interesting.

I've tried 4 of the 5 "good" foods.

Durian has a very strong flavor. You either love it or hate it. I hate it. My mom used to eat it after we go to bed, so we can't smell it.

Frog legs taste like catfish to me. It's not bad.

never tried reindeer pate

Bird's nest soup is really good. It's very good for you, especially women. My mom makes a sweet soup with it.

Mangosteen is probably one of the best fruit I've ever tried. I've only had it in NY. It's sweet and very refreshing. A little like logan. I love that it's so rough outside and so delicate inside.

It's cool looking but I don't know how comfortable it would be. It might feel like there's always something crawling around.

wow...mariob_1998, the couch looks great! Was the couch white before? Nice job...i never would've thought that would work.

I was just about to renew my subscription. I really liked them. I loved those sticker tabs. I didn't know O at Home is gone too.

It looks so complicated but it's so easy. I have to try it.

anything like this in Chicago???
