Good list, except I'd replace the Monster headphones with something a little more luggage-friendly like some in-ear buds by Shure. They can also double as good ol' earplugs. Unplggd's Top 10 Tech Travel Essentials Flag this comment	8/9/10 1:25 PM

I have the world's worst toaster oven, but I still prefer them to toasters because they are multi-functional and more efficient than ovens for baking small items. Toaster or Toaster Oven: Which Do You Prefer? \| Apartment Therapy The Kitchn Flag this comment	3/16/10 3:06 AM
I've read The Urban Homestead, and found it full of good tips. Each chapter is devoted to a different homesteading area: composting, growing veggies, raising animals, etc. 5 Books On Self-Sufficiency In The Home \| Apartment Therapy Re-Nest Flag this comment	3/15/10 4:02 PM

You should be able to hold liquid in these bottles because hopefully your pantry/fridge would not harbor the same activators/catalysts found in a compost pile. Sugar-Based Plastics That You Can Compost at Home \| Apartment Therapy Re-Nest Flag this comment	2/24/10 2:25 PM

And by "$75" i mean ~$80. Don't you hate it when your memory plays tricks on you? Help Me Find a Cheap Yet High Quality Cookware Set? Good Questions \| Apartment Therapy The Kitchn Flag this comment	2/19/10 4:52 PM
I've heard from a few people who teach cooking classes that the Cuisinart Stainless Steel sets are an excellent value. A quick search found a 7 piece set on Amazon for $75 Also, once I got a killer deal on a le creuset set ($400 for an 8 piece set) off Amazon. I'm planning on lugging the 50 pound set around with me for the rest of my life. That said, I'd go with Marshalls or TJ Maxx and spend more on a couple key pans, rather than a set. As for materials, I'd vote for the following: - Cast Iron, or Enameled Cast Iron is a good long-lasting material - Stainless Steel Help Me Find a Cheap Yet High Quality Cookware Set?

Good review Trent! I started using this recently too and agree: it doesn't clean better than other products I've used. But it doesn't have to. And although $ per ounce/load is higher than average, I believe that it's worth it because its environmental cost is lower. Other thoughts (similar to Trent's): - I like the small bottle (it's a bit bigger a nalgene bottle) - I like the simple measuring method (# of pumps is somehow easier than pouring into a cup) - I like the lack of spills because of the pump - My laundromat-using friend did note that it would be nice if you could lock the pump.

I thought there was a question here whether the Frigoverres were 'unlined' glass containers (and BPA-free). Does any one know if they are? Like other commenters I am also a fan of Glasslock, as they apppear to be water-tight. The Pyrex containers are rock-solid, but they do leak liquids.

By the way, Costco sells a 8 pack of glass containers for $30. (I was unable to find them on Costco.com however). They come with a plastic lid which is not suitable for microwaving, but the lids make the containers water-tight from what I can tell. I think they are a very affordable alternative to Pyrex.

Good question @thaispacci! Maybe there are glass containers with a plastic internal lining? Why they would do this boggles my mind... Cheap Eco-Friendly: Frigoverre Glass Storage Containers \| Apartment Therapy Re-Nest Flag this comment	1/29/10 12:09 PM
I find it amazing that I have such a hard time keeping my desk at home clean, but my cubicle is generally pretty neat/de-cluttered....So on more than one occasion, I have daydreamed about putting up a cubicle in my home.

I keep them for a while, and then get rid of them during purges. Sometimes the old issues go to friends, but mostly they go to the recycling bin.
