Think about what you've got on your floor. I bought a huge flokati rug second hand from someone who had to get rid of it when their baby started crawling, because the baby kept getting stuck in it! Baby-Friendly Decorating 101: Rethinking Home Design with a Baby on the Way |

My husband's grandfather was a carpenter. Now my husband has quite a few of his tools including a plane with a beautiful wood handle, and they have been put to good use in renovating our house. I like to think his grandfather would be pleased that they are still being used. How Do You Memorialize Loved Ones at Home? |

What a gorgeous kitchen, it looks really stylish but really comfortable and relaxed at the same time. Agree that the floor is spectacular. I'd love to see a house tour! Sarah and Frank's Live-In Kitchen Kitchen Tour |

Up until I was about 10 I had a tiny room that had a feature wall with Rainbow Brite wallpaper, and matching Rainbow Brite bed linen. Do You Remember Your Childhood Wallpaper? |

Looks like the large one is £85 in th UK. That's a LOT of money! I have a large Bialetti moka pot that does the job when several people want coffee at once, of course it doesn't keep the coffee hot but I don't think you can beat it for flavour and I suspect most of Italy would agree.

Doughballs with garlic butter. Make pizza dough, let it prove, then knock back, roll into walnut-sized balls, and leave in the fridge on a baking tray till you want to bake them. Then just before you want to serve them, pop them into an oven around 240ºC or 460ºF for around 12 minutes. Serve with whatever garlic butter recipe you like. I've done these lots of times when we've had friends round and they are always very popular. Make-Ahead Recipes to Serve Mid-Way Through a Party? Good Questions |

Never had a dishwasher, never been bothered about it. My kitchen is small. When I cook I clean as I go (I'm a trained chef and it is literally the first thing you learn at college, the habit is ingrained in me). So after dinner we only have the plates and cutlery we're using, plus maybe a saucepan or wok or something, most of it will have already been done. My Life Without a Dishwasher Renters Solutions |

A little one bedroom flat in London with a tiny kitchen. It was right beside the river (I mean if you looked outside the living room, kitchen or bedroom windows the river was only about twenty feet away) and I spent countless hours running countless miles along the river. The landlord was a lovely guy and used to babysit our cats when we went on holiday, and when every single appliance broke down within a year he replaced everything with brand new stuff within a few days of it breaking. Our heating bills were tiny because it was such a cosy, well-insulated building, we had a massive attic for storage, and the rent was an absolute steal, £750 per month which in London would sometimes only rent you a room in a shared house. Oh and we could paint or do whatever we liked decor-wise but I never bothered because I grew to love the landlord's mad colour choices. Tell Us: What Was The Best Rental You've Ever Had? |

Bexsa -I'm also a real Irish person but I grew up in Northern Ireland, and we have always had white soda bread. In fact if it was made with wholemeal flour, we would call it wheaten bread rather than soda bread. Perhaps it's a local thing. How to Make Easy Irish Soda Bread Cooking Lessons from the Kitchn |

My husband (who doesn't use Facebook, Twitter or most other forms of social media) has always been really freaked out by the seedy bits in butternut squash, or corn on the cob middles when all the corn has been eaten. I always thought he was just being weird. Fear of Cantaloupes, Crumpets & More: Is Trypophobia for Real? |

I have an orange one of these, bought from Aldi for about £25, and a slightly smaller no-brand one in a kind of cappuccino colour (which I really like) for about £20. Both of them are about three years old now and have taken quite a lot of use and abuse and are still going strong, a few signs of wear but nothing major. I'm really quite attached to them as they've produced some memorable meals, and would hate to have to replace them, even for a Le Creuset!
