Lovely. Very comfortable and homey; what a wonderful place to spend your days and nights.

Green beans can safely be pickled in a hot water bath. I think that is what the picture is and they are awesome!

What project would completely fit with every reader? I pretty much lurk and gather, but lately it seems there is an over abundance of whiny, nasty comments on how much projects are disliked. With every post I look at I see something I could use and something I dislike--isn't that what we are all looking for? I guess I am outnumbered but I take what I like and leave the rest.

I have one at home and one at work. Love them both and use them several times a day.

Amazing! So well put together--and I love that there is lots of stuff, but it does not appear cluttered.

I love it--is that particle board? I don't think I have ever seen it used that way before. I have conflicting messages--part of me is screaming "unfinished" and the other part is saying "whoa" great idea!

I have to agree about the cooking once/dividing it and tossing one in the freezer. Even our family of five (with three teenagers) doesn't consume a whole lasagna for dinner. So I split it and freeze one.
As kls987 said--it is nothing novel, but on the nights we are running late, I feel brilliant and organized!

I live in North Dakota--as I type it is -26 before the windchill. We keep our thermostat at 69, to save as much as we can on utilities.
Seriously, we only have a very good down comforter--no top sheet, and we stay toasty warm at night.
My point is, the right comforter really makes a difference--check for temp ratings when shopping for one. The downside is: we cannot use ours during the summer--it is simply to warm.

They are lovely--am I the only one that thinks they are a little spendy?

I use all cotton towels also--I guess that is what my grandmother used, so it has never even occured to me to use plastic.
