I make a really nice cocktail with gin, squeeze a wedge of lemon or lime (usually Lemon for me, since I have a Meyer Lemon Tree in my yard!), rosemary (also from the yard) and a dash of bitters, all over ice. If I want something lighter I add sparkling water. 5 Refreshing Summer Sips with Rosemary |

We took a a 6 week cross country road trip with our Boston Terrier, Doc, a few years back. In order for our family and friends to keep track of where we went, we created a photoblog for Doc to post all of his pictures: in Las Vegas, the Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Mt Rushmore, Chicago, Boston, a farm, Bourbon St., Nashville, etc. We have pictures of him in all sorts of places. In order to share it with others, we turned it into a book that we gave as gifts to grandparents and things. They love it, and tragically, Doc passed away very unexpectedly about a year later. We kept his ashes, but the memories from our trip and the book specifically are the most comforting. Dog Days: Remembering Past Pets at Home |

My boyfriend loves the Toffeenut syrup at Starbucks in his coffee, and we found that the Torani Almond Roca is a great substitute. We both use it every day. What Are the Best Syrup Flavors for Mixing with Coffee? Good Questions |

An interesting approach is to press the burn gently with a free hand or other body part. This cools the burn down slowly to the natural body temperature and is supposed to prevent blistering or shock from cold water/ice/et. Ouch! How Do You Treat a Kitchen Burn? |

I once microwave steamed some broccoli at work and it sent my colleagues in a frenzy thinking there was a gas leak. I was pretty offended by their reaction, but I ate my broccoli raw after that... Why Your Co-Worker's Smelly Lunch Makes You Feel Bad |

I feel like this could be accomplished with any snap case. I just tried it with my Incase snap case for my iPhone 4 with pretty decent results. I would like to know what makes this case different. Don't Carry Your Tech, Wear It |

I usually scan to an FTP my boyfriend set up for me and then access it on my iPad. I can save the file, image or pdf and do whatever I want with it. How to Scan to an iPad Without a Computer |

I made a great pasta salad with it, and it's so simple. I toss whole wheat pasta, cherry tomatoes (or diced tomatoes), arugula, feta cheese and and some olive oil to bring it all together. No need for salt because of the salmon and feta, and no need for pepper because of the arugula. It's a great lunch salad. What Can I Do With a Surplus of Smoked Salmon? Good Questions |

I'd love to take my boyfriend (a coffee fanatic) to try this. Does anyone know if any of the great coffee shops in Los Angeles do anything like this? Doesnt look like LaMills or Intelligensia do.... Slurp Loud and Proud: Stumptown Coffee Cupping in Portland, Oregon |

In Los Angeles I like to get Zapopan Reposado Tequila. It comes in a 1L bottle and usually costs about $10 at Trader Joes or Super King. I'd say it's almost as good as Cazadores at less than 1/3rd the price. Bargain Booze: 7 Top Picks From Bar Experts Straight Up Cocktails and Spirits | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

I noticed they missed the flea market I grew up going to: Montana Charlie's! It's on Joliet Rd right off 55/355. I haven't been in almost 20 years or so, but when I was a little girl we adopted a kitten we named Charlie from there. I loved going there as a kid and still drive by it all the time when I'm visiting my parents. Apartment Therapy Chicago | Guide to Illinois Flea Markets Chicago Reader 7.31.08 |
