Yeah, Amazon is sort of putting my dads business out of business since certain people on there can do the same thing he does for much cheaper- sort of sucks. Support local business and spend a bit more people. Why Christina Tosi Buys Baking Ingredients on Amazon |

I hate wrapping becuase i worked as a gift wrapper at the mall for 8 years in a row. It got old. That being said I don't buy wrapping paper now, really just to save money. Instead I flip Trader Joes and Whole Foods paper bags inside out, cut off the handles, and use that as my gift wrap paper. It really only works with smaller gifts though. For larger ones I use old maps from work. Getting Crafty: DIY Holiday Wrapping Paper |

Constructive critisicm to the house tour folks: Please stop with the 5 million vignettes, some are good, but not as many as y'all provide (like the plaid canteen) and give us a couple more wide angle shots of rooms. I love house tours, but lately I have been having a bit of a problem with seeing "the big picture". Chris & Roger's DIY + Modern Farmhouse House Tour |

I wish someone would come pick off all the pecans on my pecan tree. The sound of them hitting the roof and skylights of my tiny house has turned my great dane in to a mess. She can't even stay with me right now because they scare her so much she tries to escape by any means she can. Aw, Nuts! Why You'll Pay More for Pecans This Year |

I would put a bright colored coat stand behind and to the corner of the door. Also a friend of mine had an entry like this and she put a pair of her and her husbands shoes on each step up. I don't think they wore shoes in the house. It looked really cute, you just have to obviously push them to the side. Good luck! Help with Landing Strip in Small Apartment? Good Questions |

Just painted my bottom kitchen cabinets grey, and the top open shelving is white. Planning on getting new countertops, subway tile with dark grout, and chartreuse on the walls. This post just makes me want it sooner. Working with Chartreuse: Color Pairings |

I'm a 21+er with no e-reader. I go to the library or buy books at goodwill, yard sales, etc. I probably buy less than 10 brand new books a year. Final Frame: Who Reads More, E-readers or Book Readers? |

Growing up I was like most kids who hated vegetables. My mom would make fresh asparagus, I hated them. My mom would serve canned beets at Thanksgiving I hated them. My whole family adored tomatoes, I hated them. I hated tomatoes so much I wouldn't eat tomato sauce on pasta... only parmesan. Do You Have a Vegetable Conversion Story? |

Keep it hidden in a very simple hiding place on my front porch. All of my friends know where it's at. Probably not a good thing, except my great dane is usually there and I don't think many unknown people would try and come inside with her standing guard. Where Do You Keep Your Spare Key? |
