The link for #7 is actually the link for #6 again. Would love to see the tour for "JoAnn and Dan's Creatively Collected home" if it's available.

As I'm originally from southern Ontario, I'm definitely proud of the great lakes and how inspiring and gorgeous they are. This quilt is gorgeous and as much as I'd love to win it, I think all of these passionate people deserve to have one! I am enjoying the great lake love going on here! xx

I'm surprised that Yves Klein hasn't been mentioned at all in the course of discussion that has followed this ridiculous gesture.

Yves Klein was exhibiting "Le Vide" (The Void) in France, 1958, which was simply an empty gallery space. He then sold pieces of the void for gold, providing buyers with a certificate. People then were asked to destroy their certificates in order to truly own the void, etc. Anyway, look it up if you're interested. Then came Piero Manzoni, inspired by Klein, who sold his own feces in an effort to make a parody of the art market; a fascinating critique of consumerism and the waste we create.

These men were brilliant. They were innovative and dedicated to making their audiences reconsider the society they live in and create.

James Franco is a plagiarist and a fool. It's unfortunate that people know nothing about the great artists who have come before him.

And this is why I adore the homes of the fashionably inclined: “I think that is the mark of a good apartment; you can never really be done—It’s like a proper wardrobe." Always progressing, always in flux, just like the person who lives there. Simply gorgeous! Thank you APT for sharing the addition link to the Vogue article as well.

"This is the best thing I ever put in my mouth" -- I was skeptical about this no-cinnamon-in-my-bun Buns, but I think that review sold me. Thank you, Kitchn, for reposting this recipe! I can't wait to make these for Christmas.
