Geez nekono, grow up.

I like the idea of actually having the beds close together. Maybe you could make the rest of the room into sort of a send living area. Then you wouldn't always to have to be in the same room to relax or watch television.

I believe it came with the sink. We have the sink in the photo and I am pretty sure we didn't have to buy those things separately.

You have to stay off of Facebook as well. Some people have absolutely no regard for others.

I have an interesting situation, my parents just divorced about 3 years ago after 40 years of marriage. My mother cannot get over it. My husband is an only child. So no matter what we do, someone gets upset. My dad divorced all of us so at least he doesn't factor in anymore. Last year, because my husband had to work I drove to my mother's house. She complained the entire time and I found out later that she had been invited to my SIL's family get-together. (She lives in the same town as my brother, I am three hours away.) This year I just put my foot down and said we're not going anywhere. I get that she is in retail and has to work a lot during the holidays but my husband's company does a lot of work during this time, too. Like many have said, I just am learning to say no and realizing I can't be responsible for other people, only my own family. Everyone is always welcome to join us here at my house and to their credit, my in-laws will always come, but my mother will sit home alone and cry about her children abandoning her even though she was invited to spend the day with both of us.

My parents were big fans of avocado green. Our refrigerator and living room furniture were avocado green LONG past its stylishness. I don't think I could do buy anything that color now even if I wanted to! (I don't.)

Kathryn, I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that they like blue. ;)

Sprouts is my new favorite. Only very rarely do I need to venture into Kroger for something they don't carry. Like fake maple syrup for my kid's waffles, haha! The Kroger here is nasty. The produce is often rotting and buzzing with fruit flies. Broccoli had been black for months before the Sprouts opened and I was able to change stores.

I fail to see how pointing out that a vegan recipe is not vegan is "nasty." It's not like anyone nitpicked over an obscure ingredient - it was cheese and fish stock. In fact, the nastiest responses in this thread are from people acting as if we're over-reacting. It's not "snobbery" to not want to eat an animal product when you're vegan, my goodness.

I'd love to have a pink bathroom. It also makes me so sad on home improvement shows when they rip them out!

"It's not like you can use up a gallon of milk the same day you buy it."

Clearly, you haven't met my son. ;) Obviously, milk isn't an issue around our home but everything else we don't give much leeway to. A few days, sure but when in doubt we throw it out.
