I saw this in the email earlier in the day and waited until now to come back and look at the comments. Somehow, I just knew they'd start out so negative. It's like your grossed out by people who live alone. It's amazing that so much of the slow foods/home cooking/simple design movements are getting flooded with this negative "You don't do it the RIGHT way" attitude. Please. If I wanted to be shunned for every little sin, I'll go hang out with the upper-crust ladies who lunch. Don't turn it into a club no one wants to be in.

@plan9nyc , I was flat-out jealous. I've always always wanted to live in NY and have those amazing dinners where your friends are your family and you've managed to make something awesome in so little space. You look like your having a blast. Can I come over?

Variety and spontaneity in this life is good. I've eaten in my bed...cookies with my sister over stupid boys...grilled cheese with the sick boyfriend. Who cares? I have a washing machine. Making your life so precious and clean is stifling. You can have it, I'll keep dancing in the kitchen while the soup is on, then finish it on the couch with a good book.

If that pale yellow fence is 20% color, I'll stick to some other rule. I get what you're saying, but only to a degree. The fun of color is playing, mixing, and finding these wonderful combinations. Always putting it against white is more of a look/style (not a rule) to me.
