The company's customer service is also excellent. My first Thermapen died suddenly due to some unnoticed water damage - it was an older model. The company had me send it back to see if they could repair it; since they couldn't, they offered me a discount on a newer splash proof model. Which I happily took, because I love my Thermapen. :)

Joining the chorus of "stuff I can't kill." Or "stuff that won't get attacked by nasty caterpillars."

And since I'm in an apartment, "stuff that likes containers."

Leaving me with a lot of little potted succulents.

Right now? A cheesecloth wrapped sausage is hanging from my living room ceiling. Watching "The French Chef" will do that...

1. Love the little bar cart, especially with the Bulleit Rye and the Sailor Jerry. When's the party? :)

2. The ball of string print in the bedroom is delightful. Would you mind sharing the source?

Also, love the pup.

My mum's quilt group sent us a lovely set of placemats, a table runner, and napkins as a wedding gift and they're fantastic. The napkins are dark colored, so stains don't really show, and we tend to follow a more *ahem* French schedule for their laundering.
