Growing up, my sick and snow day favorite was Snow's clam chowder. Best canned clam chowder! But I can't get it where I live now, so I just have to make do with other soup - usually tomato soup and grilled cheese.

I love seeing all of the tours in DC! I love the hallway runner! Where is that from? My other favorite part is the AU diploma (but that's probably because I'm a fellow AU alum!).

Ha! What a coincidence! I live across the street from the Car Barn and my roommate and I were just saying this morning that we wonder what it looks like on the inside! Now we have an answer - awesome.

I completely agree with the comments about the light. When I first moved into my room with very little natural light, I was completely disheartened with the way it looked. Now I have two lamps, one on my bookshelf and one arc lamp over my bed, and you would not believe the difference it makes!

I also have a sheer curtain on the window that I do have (that looks onto this sort of cut-out in between the next row house) and that definitely helps with what light does come in. I got a sheer curtain with a design so it wasn't as boring as a plain white sheer curtain panel.

You could also try painting your unfinished dresser a new color! I think that would help a lot.

I completely agree! I fundamentally disagree with the idea of 'dieting' because I don't think it is something that I (or a lot of people) can stick with for an extended period of time. Instead, I try to make healthy choices all of the time, but not count every single calorie. Adding more veggies and fruit to my diet is definitely something I do a lot of times when I've been eating a very carb-heavy diet.

Looks awesome! Had a laugh because someone must have had a pretty bad cold when the before photos were taken - soup lids, Theraflu, and a prescription bottle...
