When I worked in an office with purified chilled/room temp water available at all times, I was a serious gulper. Now that I work from home I drink significantly less. I have a Britta filter, but I still hate the way the water tastes.

I love the Parker! I would also like to recommend The Colony Palms. It's very pretty and has a wonderful restaurant.

Yum! I love these. How about a stone fruit medley with whipped cream? Loquats, black plums and peaches.

I hate to say this, but...CRAVINGS! Cravings always throw me off without fail. I try to stick to my meal plans because it helps me to not waste food, but sometimes my desires rule over my potential to be practical.

Talk to other tenants if you can. What the neighbors think of the landlord, the property...and the other neighbors. Sometimes this is impossible, but if you have the chance- go for it! Also, ask about any prior pest infestations, noise complaints, and break-ins.

Iona, that's not a proper mince! Although, it is my favorite way to get garlic into a dish too : )

I have a different idea of TINI. I recently visited the store, and was really surprised by how inexpensive I thought the items were. Yes, most things need to be reupholstered and cleaned, but they had some design icon pieces floating around in there. I spied a Noguchi bench, a Saarinen tulip chair, and many other labeled designer pieces for under 200 dollars. For a new store on Fairfax those lower prices felt like a surprise. Sure you could search through the Rose Bowl flea market and find most of the same things, but if you don't have time, TINI is great. It's just fun to look around even if you don't have time to buy.

I live in LA in a studio apartment with a full kitchen and a garage and I pay 1,500. I feel like for a studio it's really high, but I ADORE my apartment and neighbors. It's a gorgeous building that is fully landscaped and has fountains, so it's worth it. I could pay the same amount for almost double the space in a not-as-nice building.

I love a large bowl or composition of pomegranates. They are so gorgeous!

Ginger tea, ginger ale, and any kind of Japanese soup with lots of broth and green onion.

I have linoleum. Does anyone use a linoleum-safe floor cleaner that they love? The pattern is really cute, but it's mostly white...it always looks dirty and I am constantly wet-swiffering. HELP!
