I've expressed my opinion on the main page (Apartment Therapy) already, immediately after the change. I really appreciate the larger pictures, the larger fonts, the cleaner look. Best of all, the site has become very, very fast. And after some time now I love it even more! Very well done!

But I may have found a bug today, or you know it already. After doing a search (here 'finger food') and clicking on one of the links in the search results, I cannot see the comments on that thread. Which is a pity because in the comments is what I've been looking for.

E.g. this thread http://www.thekitchn.com/good-question-w-1-6353
It says 36 comments but I can see one only and I don't know how to get to the rest. Any idea?

I've never before heard anything negative about drinking water. And if so, I wouldn't have listened. I cannot imagine having a meal without water. Makes me think of suffocation.

Yes, tap water always plus sparkling water, if somebody wants some. Very cold, sometimes with lemon slices. I'm thirsty now...

In the fridge: medical salves and gels, homoeopathic drugs, especially those in gelatin capsules. Batteries, film, sun lotions, plant seeds. Sometimes seeds mixed with damp soil for stratification. In summer in the freezer small wet towels for refreshment.

@ AILEENJ - Totally agree with you on quality wallpaper and especially on texture.

But I strongly disagree on getting an expert consultation in a brick & mortar store but then making the deal with an online shop because it's cheaper. That's simply not fair. That's what the small shops already suffered from in pre-internet times when losing customers this way to the upcoming big stores. See what happened to them. They are all gone.

And taking into account on what the online shop saves (rental, furnishings, staff etc.) it should be even more cheaper.

There is something like glass polish available. It's used to get rid of deposits on car front shields.

I've got that from my car dealer and it was the only way deep clean my new windows without scratching them.

So why is it then that IKEA tea candles only burn to the half if placed outside in a lantern in winter? Inside the house these were fine but in the (very) cold they stopped burning half finished.

Till now I haven't seen anything other than the large standard black rectangles. Although being a huge fan of using solar energy those black slabs can look quite horrible - designwise.

This here looks like a nice alternative, especially in the last photo. Although prices and efficiency have to be well compared.

What a cute idea is this!!

These are all beautiful and I'd always prefer shutters to curtains but - smell and grime will stay the same and it's much easier to throw some curtains into the washing machine than to clean shutters, isn't it?

I've never done it myself but my grandmother did it every year. It always was some kind of neighbourhood-affair. I remember well all the women working together for several days, shredding all the cabbage on this huge cutter above an even larger trough.

The recipe was the same as yours except my grandma added juniper berries (?? Wacholderbeeren).

It was the best sauerkraut ever, no comparison to the shop bought stuff. Unfortunately, my cellar isn't cold enough.
