Candy or snacks are great in bulk because you can buy just a bit instead of being tempted to eat the whole (packaged) bag. I also love to buy spices in bulk as it's exponentially cheaper. It is important though to shop smart when buying bulk items and think before you pour out a large amount of cashews or pine nuts into a bag because if you get to the till and decide it's too much they do have to throw them out. I work in a grocery store and have seen so much waste because the customer thought that the huge bag of Jelly Belly jellybeans they just poured was only going to be a few bucks and was actually 30 bucks (for example).

No need to stick them with a fork before cooking. Cook for a half hour, then stick them once with a knife and flip over to the other side for another half hour, directly on the oven rack. I like to rub the outside with butter.

I rub the clean potato's skin with butter, put in a 400 degree oven or so for a half hour, directly on the rack...spear once with a sharp knife, turn over and bake for another half hour...perfect baked potatoes every time.

I just can't get over the falling apart ceiling and walls on the first floor, to me that would give it a damp feel...and the couch isn't shabby chic..it just seems shabby. I do like the floors upstairs though and the other details seem very homey.
