I'm all for sex advice or relationship advice, but seriously - AT is not the place for it. I was surprised to see this here and, quite frankly, I'm disappointed. Stick to what you're good at. I'd hate to see this site turn into some freakish omni-media "lifestyle" monster.

I've made these two nights in a row now. NOM NOM NOM!

I put chipotle & paprika chicken, broccoli, and mozzarella in mine. They were a bit dry until I put some pizza sauce on the dough under the filling.

I'll definitely be making these again, maybe using whole wheat flour.

Just a heads up - you can get those same under-shelf baskets at almost any Dollarama for $1.25 a piece instead of $7-$9 at the Container Store.

I used to live in that building until a couple months ago. I never dreamed one of those apartments could house so much fabulousness! I'm insanely jealous and I totally regret not stumbling upon this apartment when I lived there. :( Good work!

I'm going to try this with skim milk. I can't stomach full-fat milk. :(

Use it as a flower holder. Throw a few super bright & colorful fake flowers in it to brighten up a darker corner of your place.

I use Healthy Pet Milled Grain litter. It's totally flushable, biodegradable & has none of the crappy dust that comes with clay litter. I've been using it for years & I love it.

I also enjoy how it doesn't get tracked throughout my apartment because the grains are a bit larger.

Amazing! I'm moving into a new rented apartment and I totally want to try making those pipe shelves. GREAT WORK!

At the risk of sounding kinda creepy - Patrick, I think we live in the same building! What do you think about the new "art" and tables on each floor?

You've made really good use of the space, especially the small living room. Good job!

I love the lighting & the pot rack! I'm moving to another rental apt. in a couple weeks and this is exactly how I envisioned my new kitchen! Thanks for the awesome how-to!

Absolutely. I've hosted someone from Turkey on my couch here in Toronto & it was a great experience. I learned all about his culture & I got to play tourist in my own city for a while as I showed him a few landmarks.

I chatted with him online before he arrived to suss him out & I told my BF and family everything about him just in case it got creepy (contact info, etc.)

He left me with a lovely Turkish trinket as a thank-you gift & I'd love to host another traveler as soon as I can!

I'm squeezing in my trip to IKEA this afternoon. I'll be picking up some organizational stuff to help with the 'cleaning out the kitchen' task. Hopefully it'll make things go a bit smoother.

@fuzzpedals - I'm not sure what kind of set up your Landing Strip has, but would see-thru baskets or low-edged trays on a shelf work? The stuff would still be "put away" but visible at the same time.

I just started reading the "Apartment Therapy" book last night. I made it through Part I and I'm reading the Week One info now.

As I was going through Part I, I kept thinking over and over "Wow, that's exactly what I'm feeling, but I've never had it verbalized. It's like someone's reading my mind.

Is that happening to anyone else?

I'm going to be recycling old magazines that I've been accumulating since I was 15 (eep!).

My boyfriend & I have already cleared off an old rickety bookshelf and disposed of it. My living room already feels more spacious!

I'm hailing from Toronto currently, via Winnipeg and Ottawa before that. I'm trying to make my tiny, downtown 1-bedroom apartment more pleasant.

I discovered the Cure just as my boyfriend and I were discussing revamping our place. Good timing!
