"With all the different Kindle models out there, it's good to get a case that can accommodate as many as possible." Unless you plan to replace your Kindle with a new model every time one comes out, I would think that you really only need to get a case that can accommodate the Kindle you own. That said, if you are a seller, it's a good idea to MAKE a case that can accommodate as many as possible.

The point of packaging is to protect the food inside. As other folks have mentioned, I don't want to eat something that might not be clean. I'm not likely to eat the packaging which might have been exposed to germs, toxins, chemicals, etc. Also: "edible polymers"? That's still plastic in my book. I don't need to be exposing myself to any MORE plastic in my life thanks. I'd rather we find ways to REDUCE packaging.

I'm with Tasterspoon on this: I also use a grease pencil on glass jars. I reuse glass jars to store just about everything (in the cupboard, fridge and freezer). Labeling is useful for me because I can date things. It also helps me distinguish similar-looking items: home made Soap Nut liquid and home made cinnamon vodka look surprisingly the same but serve VERY different functions :)

I've never understood when a food is described as "scented". That is, why is it "lemon-scented pull apart loaf" as opposed to "lemon-flavored"?

Riiiiight. A remote control left on my porch doesn't look out of place at all. I mean, sure this could be a good hiding place for things you want to hide INSIDE your home but I think that leaving a remote control on your porch just seems kind of odd.

For a site called APARTMENT therapy, I find this (and some other) post rather humorous. I don't know many folks living in an apartment with enough room in the bathroom for laundry. I certainly have not seen an apartment bathroom as large as any of the ones pictured above.

These look great but how long would they last? I can't imagine a radish wreath would hold together after a few days.

I'd love it if these tips included some explanation of how they work. Why does putting a bucket of water in the room eliminate the paint smell?

I used to use unscented dryer sheets because I can't stand the perfume-y smell that lingers afterward. A few years ago I gave them up completely. I found no difference. There is no static in my laundry and my clothes are just as soft. (I use only soapnuts and the occasional oxygen cleaner; I don't use any softener.) If you think you *need* dryer sheets for softness or static control, try going a few weeks without it. You may not have the same results I did but you might find you don't need them at all.

Somehow I think it would take me longer to smooth out a t-shirt flat in order to use this method than it would take me to just folk the shirt as I already do. And, um, it's a t-shirt so it's not like it has to be prefect. As long as it fits in the drawer and isn't overly wrinkled that's good enough for me!
