AMEN! I'm Renting...And Okay with That Flag this comment	3/27/13 2:35 PM
I had a tiny apartment kitchen for 3 years, and cooked A LOT -- I bought a Magic Bullet, and a 20 dollar stick blender -- the two of them took up a tiny amount of space, the magic bullet was super easy to clean, powerful, and worked like a champ for all my chopping and blending needs. I hate blenders -- they never seem to be able to handle tough/thick items, and they are a MESS to clean up.

The first, third, and fourth are lovely. The white wrapped... not so much. Where are the titles? Junper Books: One-of-a-Kind Collections Flag this comment	9/21/11 10:16 AM
For me, all of the oh-so-perfect designed or designer rooms I see make me really appreciate the homes I see that actually have a sense of humor, a sense of place, a sense of reflection. A home should be an extension of who you are. Decorating Image Overload: Good, Bad or Just Different? Flag this comment	9/19/11 5:56 PM
Hi Brande -- I'm a travel agent and a veteren of Amtrak trips so I think your idea to bring your own meals is great! 1) Are you in a sleeping car or in coach? If you're in any of the sleeping cars then your meals are included, which greatly reduces the need to bring so much food. (if you're not using an agent that detail sometimes gets lost) 2) When I was a teen my Mom took me and my two brothers on a 3 day train trip -- in coach. She brought a cooler with bagels, sandwiches, string cheese, granola, yogurt, crackers, nuts, precooked bacon, pickles, fruit, etc. It's better if you get some dry ice, and there are easy-to-tote coolers now, that roll on wheels like a suitcase for about 20$ at Walmart.
