I love this. This is my favorite party yet.

The best vanilla cupcake recipe ever is from Billy's Bakery in NYC and it calls for cake flour. I can't easily find King Arthur cake flour in my neighborhood, so I usually use Swan's Down or Softasilk.

Rude cashiers. There is a grocery in my neighborhood that I refuse to go to because the cashiers don't address you or make eye contact, and in the off-chance that they have to for some reason, they roll their eyes. I went there once, walked out and then went back in because the cashier forgot to bag my baguette. "Oh its there," she said. And it was. She folded it in half to fit it in the bag.

Not sure, but these remind me of Lafer chairs from the 60s.

Cool. This is like the Bulthaup cabinet except smaller (maybe more affordable?)

I would go for the Plumen bulbs. They're relatively inexpensive and the curves will be a nice foil for the strong diagonals you have there.

This is a nice post, but I think the only real point of debate is whether or not it looks good.

And in my opinion, it doe not.

Hooray for Young and Kenneth! My husband, Markus, buys wine from them often (I won't say how often...)

Cheers, guys!

this is awesome! i've had two very nice butter dishes leap from the cubby in the door and shatter, so i've been shy about getting another one. this could be a nice solution.

I cannot begin to describe my love of gochujang. My husband and I want to develop a bottle that fits on our keychains so we can have it on our person at all times.

I can make a wide array of things without referring to a recipe, but with dishes that require measured ingredients, I usually have to follow one. Except for Buttermilk Pancakes and David Lebovitz's Tomato Tart, which I've made so often I can recite the recipe for you.

I also write all my "keepers" on very informal recipe cards. For me, they're easier to access this way and I can simply pin them to the fridge while I cook. I also love how personal the handwritten mark is. Its almost the only time I actually write something substantial.

As for the cute letterpress cards, I really like them, but they all seem to be more cute than practical. And expensive.

This house is in my neighborhood and I love to see it when I pass. With Brownstones, it seems that everyone takes pains to recreate what it once was with interior finishes and exterior details. The owner here opted for a different approach. And I respect and admire that.
