Jddar's Profile

I love this apartment – especially the lofty ceilings and the two generously scaled rooms. However, if it were mine, I'd definitely make that dressing room the bedroom and the bedroom would become the dressing room. Having the bed pushed up against the wall, is a quite an inconvinience, making it a nightmare to makeup and if two people are sleeping in the bed it's difficult for one to get up without disturbing the other. I'd much prefer a spacious bedroom than a large and too public dressing room. Of course, what's ideal for me isn't necessarily the same for someone else.

Try the art department at a nearby university or college. Student and recent graduate's work is usually quite affordable. I'd rather have a big original oil painting than a mass produced print. Also, students and young artists usually need all the help they can get.

I've been wanting a pair of potted lemon trees for years. Why haven't I gotten them? Another mystery....

I've had Paprika on my iPad and iPhone for about a year and love it. It works perfectly for me. It's well worth the few dollars it costs.

Ice is kept foremost. I keep frozen spinach, artichoke hearts, green peas, and pearl onions, also individually frozen strawberries and peaches, plus individually frozen shrimp with no additives, homemade chicken and beef stock, and a few chicken leg quarters and breasts. Then there is usually a few quarts of hearty homemade soups and stews in autumn and winter. I wish there was room for more.

I like both. However, I'm glad to see the long reign of white medals waning. I'd love a beefy parsons style dining table in brass or gilt wood. I'm not sure about what kind of top to go on it. Any Suggestions?

What a coincidence! 5-minutes ago, I just ordered King Arthur Queen Guinevere Cake Flour. No one sells it anywhere near me – it's good stuff.

The only time I ever open the email app is to copy the tracking number for some expected delivery. I really hate wading through all that junk mail that can't be stopped no matter how I try.
