eliz- we have that world market trunk and it's pretty flimsy. My little dog jumped on top of it and broke part of the frame (just plastic), so don't worry about it too much.

is that Elena and Elijah?!

Yup, that's the Roost Halo chandelier. You can find it on Anthropologie's website. It used to be available through Velocity Art and Design, but sadly, they are no longer :(

I moved from Massachusetts to Southern California and had the same problem. While it was 90 degrees outside, I put the ac on about 70ish inside, made soups, wore sweaters, and drank apple cinnamon and pumpkin teas. I made sure my blinds were closed enough so I couldn't see the palm trees. I'd light a fire and snuggle on the couch with my dog, or if I really wanted it to feel like fall I'd read "Something Wicked This Way Comes" by Ray Bradbury.

"Is there anything sexier than a girl who knows her way around a guitar? Or a guy who can write a song? I mean, really write a song?"

No, there's not. That's why I had a huge crush on my husband, he played in one of my favorite bands, and I was just a fan. Now, 6 years later, we're married! Though he is away on tour for weeks at a time, it's all worth it.

He's playing Coachella this year, so if you're going please come by and check out his set!

Well, in reference to the comment above, I am an atheist, and do not celebrate "CHRISTmas" as you say, but we do celebrate the winter holiday. We've been over this before on AT, so I'll just leave it at that.
I actually got some of these foam trees this year and wrapped them in yarn and little adornments as well. They're very cute.

Our house has a chartreuse accent wall defining the dining area, the rest of the place is snow white, with grey accents (curtains, lamps, our sofa). So the first color pallet. It's also very easy to interject other colors from time to time, like blues and oranges. I was originally inspired by the design sponge sneak peak when it was first posted.

I, too, have steamed wrinkles from my curtains. Hand held steamers are great, but mine takes a while to heat up, which is annoying.

Well, garlic in small amounts can boost a dogs immune system and also repel bugs like ticks and fleas. Avocado is good for their skin. There is an entire line of natural dog foods called Avoderm that contains it. You can give your dog avocado, just do not let them get a hold of the pit. And I made my Shiba Inu's food for a long time, usually a mix of chicken or turkey, sweet potatoes, green beans, calcium supplements, fish oil, etc... Then we got another dog and I switched them to a freeze dried raw food with fresh meat and veggies that I would add. Almost anything that is good and healthy for you is also good for your dog. But you should stay away from giving them wheat, corn, or soy products as a lot of dogs can be allergic. Also, table scraps laden with spices may make a dog sick, and it's not chocolate specifically, but the CAFFEINE in it that is dangerous.

I have the Tabouret counter stools from Overstock, too, and they are awesome! Even guests have mentioned how they love the "handle" in the middle as it makes them really easy to pull out.
