I need this in my life. I've already started dreaming up crazy soda concoctions to make with it!!!

This is exactly what I need!! My poor old fridge is so sad and pitiful that it literally cries. And I have trouble keeping food on the top shelf, because even on the warmest setting it freezes.

I made risotto and chili - things that I could feed to anyone who needed to stay with me during the storm and I wouldn't feel guilty eating all day long if the power went out.

Milk based foods help me. I had this same problem once, and luckily I had a cup of plain yogurt in my fridge. I covered my hands in the yogurt and held them over the kitchen sink before washing them off a few minutes later. I figure if milk helps stop the burn inside your mouth, it's gotta help outside too, right?

Yes, it's worth it if you ask the right questions. I recently bought a mediocre (but large) apartment in a somewhat rundown building in a nice neighborhood. Even though the building is rundown and not much to look at, the board has already started fixing some of the issues since I moved in and even already taken money out of their funds just to go towards building beautification. You just need to ask if the building has any money, or even plans to make changes. And you need to make your voice heard. I make my once mediocre apartment better everyday with small fixes and my board has been doing the same with the building. The best part is that I don't even have to pay more for the big fixes because the money was already put aside before I even was part of the community

But do headboards just connect to any old bed?? I'm looking for a headboard but every time I find a nice looking one it always says something like "compatible with xx bed"

I change my pillow cases every week, but I change my fitted sheet and wash my duvet cover (I don't use a top sheet) every 2 weeks... Sometimes 3 if I'm having a really lazy week.

Theres a really cute white and grey duvet cover from CB2. It's not exactly like this one, but it's nice and reasonably priced. http://www.cb2.com/family.aspx?c=422&f=6207
