Sofa for Room with Narrow Entryway Opening? Good Questions

I know this is a bit of a departure from the style (and price) you are looking for, but it may be something to consider due its generous size:

They say in the description that it was conceived to fit through narrow NYC hallways. Hopefully it would also fit through your door.

I recommend against taking furniture apart and having it reassembled. That adds A LOT to the cost, and when you want to get rid of the piece (or move out) you have to pay at least the same amount again, which is especially annoying if you're looking to sell/donate the sofa. Speaking from experience.

I second the comment of dmoutsop, you have to use real paximadi (παξιμάδι!). Oh, and purslane (γλιστρίδα) ...I miss it so much.

...and that beach and sea in your photo... you're making me so homesick.

This is really great, I think it's the first kitchen with two-tone cabinets that I actually like.

I second the house tour request!

Very well said! It's ridiculous how easily people judge each other on the money and money-spending front.

Could you let us know what you think about the Miele appliances? Are they worth the cost?
Thanks.

I was thinking the same, but then thought that perhaps those are normal pores and present day photoshopped pics make us think they're huge :)

The grape construction would be a great way to demonstrate lattice structure.

What you describe sounds like Navy beans. They are smaller, taste great in salads, make a great hummus, and their skins are thick.

I have also heard that adding baking soda during soaking the beans when they're still dry helps to remove their skins--my mother swears by it but I've never tried it myself.

Not everything needs color and not everybody wants color.

This is a really beautiful space that you created.

The responses to the 'favorite element' question somehow feel so representative of their respective political views.

Irrespective of kids, I would warn against a fabric like the trip, which is largely cotton-based. This fabric has a tendency to lose its tightness and to appear like it sags. Microfiber, which is synthetic and much tighter, is the way to go. It will hold up to regular use and spills much much better.
