I sometimes feel like I am missing something when I see these gigantic. cavernous kitchens. Is that actually appealing to people or is it just an inspiring fantasy? Find Your Style: 20 Classic to Contemporary Kitchens to Add to Your Inspiration Board |

The edging looks a bit weird in the photo. I think I might have made it smidge deeper too, so there's a little overhang over the drawers. Very practical overall. Before & After: A DIY Desk For Two Topped With a Surprise Surface How to Nest For Less |

Speaking as a landlady, I can say that you could probably work something out where you can install blinds, shades or an attic fan (or all three). They might even help cover the cost. It would be a good thing to negotiate in your next lease renewal especially if they pay for utilities. AC units are super expensive on power bills, in my experience.

A lot of random stuff trying to be trendy is not working, IMO. The light fixture, the weird strip of framed pictures. Proportion is way off, to my taste. There's so much good stuff here with pattern and color I think the room could be sensational with a little editing. Ali's Nightfall & Nature Bedroom My Bedroom Retreat Contest |

One of the cool things about granola is that it is so easy to make at home, and you can customize it for your preferences -- don't like it too sweet? No problem. I make mine heavy on the oats, light on the syrup and oil, NO HATEFUL RAISINS or other dried fruit and with plenty of nuts and seeds. A Break From Granola: Why Muesli Rules |

Maybe I am just being a grump but the vinyl tool holders don't actually seem to be doing such a great job. Part of the reason you hang tools is to keep them off the floor, but the PVC is too wide to do that, so the tools' ends are resting on bricks. I think using wooden cleats (made out of scrap wood) similar to this might have been easier: Before & After: Marji's Transformed Tool Storage |

I hate to be the dissenting view here, but it looks cheap to me. Tiles are better than self adhesive tile. It makes it look like a slumlord did it to avoid an expensive renovation. Before & After: Butterscotch Bathroom Tile Gets an Inexpensive Update |

The evidence overwhelmingly shows that eating lots of fruits and veggies is good for you. I'm not exactly clear on why that's so difficult for folks. Why Do Health Articles So Often Get It Wrong? |
