Lovely. The paint colors and design detracts from the floor in a great way. Love the striped walls.

I must have misread the authors post because for the life of me I can't understand the intense anger people are showing. I think the fridge looks nice and its always useful to be reminded of simple low-cost solutions.

Make the eggplant into this:

Great post! Please add more tea posts.

subtitles pretty please.

I've never understood why eating alone is a bad thing. I suppose I'd understand if it was an issue because you are always alone and eating in a restaurant is just one more occasion without friends or family but baring that case why is it so bad? Do you think people judge you? I can guarantee you people don't think about you that much. Eat alone. Enjoy your meal. Relax.

Um...that foil thing only works for some cats. We tried to best any angry and vindictive little furry angel from urinating in his favorite corner when we slighted him (ie: didn't pet him immediately when coming home) and not only would he gleefully urinate on the foil but he eventually discovered a way to move the foil up urinate and cover it with foil - our wood floors will never be the same. :(

So I have a question for the AT community:

I just bought a large nelson pendant (the crisis cross style) for over our dining room table and the issue I'm having is the best location for the table and the location of the lighing box don't line up. The ceiling box (sorry, I don't know the proper name) is a foot or so away from the spot the light should sit. So what are my options? I"ve called an electrician who quoted me $1000 to move the box and fix the ceiling (and something I especially what to do right now). Would doing a hook ruin the look of the light? Should I add a decorative cover plate over the spot the electricity comes out of? Should I buy a huge oversize decorative cover and try and cover the whole thing? Thoughts?

Anyone who has it care to comment on its durability? This is something I've been considering for a while but I fear it will not age well.

I'd skirt the bar table in the kitchen in something like a clean bright white fabric. If possible I"d make sure the place was painted bright white (not beige).
