Thank you, @Mary B C! I wanted to say something but couldn't articulate it as well as you did. I don't personally like some of these, but I don't personally have to live with them. Most of my "art" is hung traditionally. I do have two pieces propped on top of a short bookcase. I love the way they look layered against each other. Neither of them is anything precious- a framed poster and the other is some vintage postcards. My art, my way.

I made this for my very non-vegan family and it was a big hit. It was moist and tender with a wonderful orange flavor. I did make make a major alteration: as I'm not a huge fan of marmalade, I made some dark caramel sauce instead. The orange and caramel worked well very together. I'm going to make it again for my vegan coworker and I'll use the marmalade then. Delicious!

These have been on my "to-make" list since this was posted. What a great, satisfying little snack! I took advantage of all the options and even used cinnamon and nutmeg mixed in and a little on top. My other tweek was to sprinkle a little turbinado sugar on top as they were cooling- they just weren't quite sweet enough for me. Less than a tablespoon did the trick and pulled all the favors together. These are easy and infinitely customizable and I'll be making them again soon.

This looks like a happy place to live! All the colors and patterns harmonize instead of compete with one another.

Thank you@Illegal Danish- I couldn't agree more. I love every aspect of this home except the TV over the fireplace. I cringe every time I see one hung like this. It is just too high up on the wall for comfy viewing and is aesthetically unpleasing. However that is the only thing I can find to criticize here....wishing I was in the market for a Wiscosin home!

I'm coveting your furniture...all of it! And I'm a big fan of Ork! Posters too.

I live just north of your neighborhood and I'm currently looking for new cute little studio. Your style fits in well with the quirky nature of the space....I just wish I could snag the mini-loft for myself!

I'm jealous of the ridiculously high ceilings and all the storage in the kitchen. The loft probably wouldn't work for me but I think it is a resourceful and well done solution...some lofts can be really ugly!

Like everyone else, I'm in love with the rug, but also the light fixture and side chairs. As a Chicagoan I noticed the blown up photo from Cloud Gate on the picture ledge, and I have to admit to saving all of my old Domino mags too. What a happy place to work in!
