It seems like running a pan over low heat for 30 min every time you clean it just to seal in the seasoning isn't the most "green" thing to do... How To Clean and Season Old, Rusty Cast Iron Skillets |

ah, clicking on the tutorial would have been a good idea. It looks like it does wash well! Now I just need to find something like citrasolv or wintergreen oil here in Israel... Amazing DIY Fabric Art |

Does anyone know if this stands up to washing? I really like the faded look... but I wouldn't want it to get TOO much more faded. :) Amazing DIY Fabric Art |

If you don't care about preserving the view, cover the windows with a translucent film? Some kinds can be easily removed. Window Treatments that Allow Light & Provide Privacy? Good Questions |

I live in Israel and collect this water too! I use it to water my plants, not flush... you're making me wonder if we can switch around our habits. Save 4.6 Gallons of Water a Day Without Even Trying FuoriBorgo |

Don't feed the cats! I live in Israel, which also has a huge cat problem, but feeding the cats just exacerbates the problem by helping the population grow even more. See what kind of organizations work with street cats in your country and see what can be done about spaying/neutering. Then put up a good fence / get a dog. We had a huge cat problem in the stairwell of our building (a cat decided to poop right outside our door multiple times a day... yeah, help THAT) and we seem to have fixed it simply by putting mesh up around our entry area (which before was easy for cats to enter through.

You can also heat the milk and the yogurt in a crock pot for two hours, then turn off the crockpot, wrap in a towel, and let sit overnight. I did this for a few weeks, but I ultimately decided that the time and dishwashing wasn't worth 75 cents How to Make Yogurt at Home |

I think it will look TOO matchy and coordinated if you go with light teal. I second the khaki suggestion-- I even think it could look awesome if the khaki tends slightly green! What Color Would You Paint These Walls? Good Questions | Apartment Therapy Los Angeles |

I agree that AT has seemed derivative lately. I mean seriously, how often do we see before-after shots from Design Sponge? While these posts are credited in SMALL text at the bottom, their sources aren't emphasized anywhere in the posts themselves, which seems dishonest and lazy.

You can also roast peanuts in the microwave... seriously. Just do two-minute bursts on slightly reduced power and they roast right up. Works for my peanut butter! How To Roast Raw Peanuts | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

Microsuede saved me. Our cats can't get traction into it. Leather is the worst, because while they don't scratch it, they gouge holes in it just be running across the chair backs. Curing Your Couch of Cat Scratch Fever | Apartment Therapy Los Angeles |

Btw, I would add that I think the best idea is to google images of "dark red dining rooms" and see what you find that you like. This can give you a better sense of your own style as well as a good idea of color combinations that work. Personally, I'd suggest a lot of soft gray, cream, white, and pops of turquoise, but that might not be your style. How To Brighten Up Deep Red Dining Room?

Why not paint the ceiling? Even if you don't add molding, you can certainly tape off a clean, level line around the room and paint the ceiling that way. All it takes is a little extra time invested to make sure the line is perfectly level. A color slightly warmer than white might look great there. How To Brighten Up Deep Red Dining Room?

I just discovered the blog "the lettered cottage" (from the first picture) and love it... I'm not even particularly into cottage style (doesn't work in Israeli apt buildings! :) but I'm very inspired by Layla and Kevin's ideas.

I really liked #1 and #3... #1 is more my personal style, but #3 is something I could see our whole family loving. It looks relaxed and laid-back. The Power of Accessories: 3 Looks For An Empty Porch Southern Living | Apartment Therapy DC |
