Great post, thank you. I too am sometimes starving after the gym, and these suggestions will help!


Refuel After a Workout: What to Eat When You Get Home From the Gym

I love the fact that dirt and messes are hidden with our quartz countertops. I never prep food directly on the counters, so I'm not worried about it being spotless. Anything that camouflages the mess is good in my book!

Another vote for Molly Wizenberg's chocolate cake. Soo good!

Gorgeous, I love this kitchen. And, where can I find a realtor like that??

Cinnamon, then cumin, then thyme. I do love red pepper and cayanne, too.

Those Litographs are so cool! I just ordered one for my husband...but not for Mother's Day of course :)

For big holidays that we host (Christmas and Easter), my husband and I take care of the necessary food and some drinks. If guests offer to bring something I'll let me know know if an appetizer, drink or dessert would be helpful and they can bring what they want.

For more casual meals (dinner with the neighbors), it's just organized but mellow.

Wow, I am in disagreement with most of the comments. As long as it's someone I know calling, I would answer any of my closest friends' phones. And my parents/husband's, too. I would expect the same from them, again, as long as they recognized the caller.

I just discovered Cheryl's blog and I love her writing. I'm almost disappointed that this book focuses on photography instead of her beautiful prose. Looks gorgeous though!

My dad's version of this is potato chips (only the kettle cooked ones, like Cape Cod) with cream cheese. Just scoop a little off the bar of cream cheese with your chip and enjoy! We don't have chips at our house, but I do indulge in this treat at my parents :)

Another whisk-er here. I just haven't figured out a sifting method that doesn't create a mess, and whisking seems to be adequate in most cases.

So boring today! I had a quick PB&J and crackers. And I ate at my desk, at home. Despite the full kitchen within reach I just didn't have the time/effort to put into a nicer lunch today.

There is a 'show images' button in the top right corner that will show a preview of the first pic of each post. Hovering over the picture enlarges it. I just discovered this recently, a big help!

Such a wonderful post, congrats to you on your new space!

For the record, I "invented" a mechanism for pouring multiple bowls of cereal at once when I had that same assignment in school. My siblings and I always started the day w/a bowl of it, and I guess I was a bit impatient about the whole taking turns thing. I love that this article brought back that funny memory for me. Thank you!

I had this same dilemma a few months ago. We ended up buying one that mounts under the counter (over the range) but does not have a fan. We didn't have a fan before either, so we're still better off than we were. It is so frustrating though, why wouldn't such an appliance exist?! Here is the one we have: http://www.amazon.com/Applica-Black-Decker-Spacemaker-Stainless/dp/B0045ANIN2 (there is a large version and a smaller version, depending on your needs)

I'm a web designer and my blog offers some tutorials that may be helpful for those looking to increase their knowledge. (Especially the 'Tips & Tricks' posts.)

An eye for home decor and layout can definitely translate to an eye for web design! :)

I have a cat who would love to munch on flowers- especially baby's breath- but cat grass does work as a good deterrent. Right now I have a pot of cat grass in the bay window next to potted paperwhites and both our cats leave the flowers alone completely in favor of the cat grass!
