I am buying new apliances and am torn between the style of stainless steel and the lower price tag of white apliances. Do you think it is worth the extra 300$ or so an aplliance for stainless steel or is it just a passing fad so I should save my money by getting white?

i have these shrubs along side of my house, and i hate them. they are the typical shrubs you see everywhere, the ones that grow about 3 ft high, they are used in landscaping alot, but i hate them. what is the best way to get rid of them? i am thinking to cut them down very far, spray with shrub killer, then pull out the roots. they have been around a long time, i bought the house 10 yrs ago, and am sure they are way older than that. thank you

Lots of contradictory things I've read on the internet. Baught a pair of rebocks over the summer and they smell, I guess they have some kind of leather on them.

Is it bad for leather to get wet?


Is it safe to throw them in the washing machine by themselves?
What about the laces and insoles?
what about muffeling the noise?
How long do they take to air dry?

Any advice would be greately appreciated, especially if you've experimented with this yourself.

oh, also, I have this neopreene knee brace, starting to smell bad too. what's the best way to clean/remove odor from it. I've heard stuff about vinegar but....iono about it

The proper name for the plant is Portulaca oleracea. I have one right now as a hanging plant that I bought. I just want to know if I should cut a stem off or if there are seeds someplace that I don't see.

We have a cedar wall in our condo and will soon be painting our walls. We have chosen to leave the cedar as is so we will not be removing the cedar or painting it. What can we do to freshen it up?

Our home is located in the Pacific Northwest. My current furnace is over 16 years old. I am very interested in other people's experience with newer furnaces.

This plant ledge is above the foyer and is pretty high. The foyer has a black bench, back console table and a large mirror which faces the door. I have wood floors and very light salmon cream walls. It really is very light, it just not a flat cream. I have one large silk plant up there. Any ideas? More plants, candles, baskets . . . Oh, I have a moderate budget for this project, so I can't do expensive art.

Th only really visible room from the foyer is the living room, which currently has a green print chair. We have not purchased a sofa, but expect it to match or complement the chair.

Thanks for your ideas!!!
