I'd love one of those! I guess the worst mishap I've had is that I dropped my beautiful new blackberry in a parking lot about three days after I got it. It scraped a lot of the silver off the sides. But thankfully it still worked.

I'm so in love with these I cannot even tell you. I am a huge fan of the old mid-century travel posters and I love how imaginative these are.

I too had one of these when I was a kid for when I brushed my teeth. I miss my whale!

I just can't bring myself to buy anything but white sheets anymore. Of course, number one is the cleaning factor, but I don't have to worry about the color fading out or getting crazy blotches. And white just seems calm and soothing to me, and that's what I want to feel when I'm in bed. I also get bored with decor really quickly, so its easier for me to change a few pieces in my room to give a quick burst of color if I need it (like adding a colorful picture), then have to spend a fortune buying a quality sheet set I might hate in 3 months.

what do you do with all the empty cases? Now you have to find spots for double the amount of dvd storage. I'm also too much in love with my door DVD storage system from the container store to get rid of it just yet.

I'd probably make a collage of some of my favorite pictures. It'll make me want to answer the phone, even if it's a telemarketer!

I purchased this not that long ago when it was on sale on Amazon.com before it has been officially released. I still haven't made up my mind about it yet though. It is great for those small areas, but you have to change the head so many times it gets annoying. I wish they would have combined the small trimmer with the foil like a regular electric razor and kept it the small size. I it would be easier to get the smoothness. However, I do find that my old regular electric razor leaves smoother results.

Call me crazy but I actually like the taste of whole wheat and grain pastas better than white pasta. Sure, it takes a little longer to cook, but it adds a nice dimension to the dish. But sometimes when i do cook white pasta I forget and end up cooking it too long.

I send all my old cell phones into the Best Buy cell phone program and get online gift certificates for them.

I think it's unfair to automatically assume she has mental problems or is just imagining things when it sounds like she really feels uncomfortable in her own home. The last thing someone wants to hear when they are legitimately afraid is that they must just be crazy.
But, I think she should definitely try all avenues (carbon monoxide, emf or a blessing) before going through the expense and hassle of breaking a lease.
I don't necessarily believe in ghosts, but sometimes you can't explain why something make you feel uncomfortable.

I'd absolutely love to have a little gardenia plant in my room so I can smell those wonderful blooms! Either that or some basil to make pizzas and sauce!

I definitely would include my grandma's potato casserole. She used to make it everytime she visited and now my mom makes it. It's perfect for cold days.
