{diy: organized t-shirt drawers}
I found a pin linking to {this post} and all my thoughts about how to organize t-shirt drawers were forever destroyed. I consider myself a pretty orderly person (and I do love organizing a drawer), but this revelation seriously had me yelling, "HOLY CRAP WHY DID I NOT DO THIS BEFORE?!"
The epiphany? Folding t-shirts in a drawer in horizontal rows instead of vertical ones so you can actually see all of your t-shirts at once. I KNOW. CRAZY.
Here's the before and after, once I dumped out my drawers and tried it out:
It's kind of embarrassing looking at the before picture, actually. I swear most of the time it looks better than that... but I get lazy.
So, in case you're not already convinced, here are reasons this technique is awesome:
1. It's ridiculously easier to find the t-shirts you want to wear because you can see all of them at once.
2. You'll start discovering t-shirts you never even knew you had because they've been shoved in the bottom of your drawer so long. (Seriously. It's like Christmas.)
3. You'll have oodles of new-found space that suddenly wasn't there before. (It's like magic!)
4. You'll be able to clean out those old ratty t-shirts you've long forgotten about. (Or turn them into something craftier...)
For me, folding shirts like this is a different method than I'm used to. It's ideal to have the pattern of the shirt facing up so you can distinguish between them. Here's a handy-dandy folding chart featuring my Mt. Washington observatory shirt so you can learn how to organize your drawers, too!
1. Lay out your shirt with the print facing up. (In this case, it's the back of the shirt)
2. Fold the shirt in half length-wise, print still facing up.
3. Fold in your sleeves (this takes an extra fold with long-sleeved shirts)
4. Fold your shirt in half width-wise, with the sleeves tucked inside the fold.
5. Fold one more time width-wise. (In this case I tucked the bottom up behind, in order to best show off the pattern.)
6. Stack shirts in rows in your drawer with the patterned fold at the top.
And there you have it. Can you believe 30 t-shirts only took up half my drawer folded this way, when before I was finding it difficult to close the drawer without shirt tails hanging out?
Sigh. Organized bliss. :)

So glad I saw this on pinterest! I've been on the lookout for a new real wooden dresser though and I was just wondering where you got yours? (:ReplyDeleteReplies
We picked it up at a flea market! Usually you can find some great wooden pieces at your local markets. Ours is lovely; my only qualm is that the drawers tend to stick a little.Delete

Mine were too tall this way to fit with the drawer closed =[ trying to figure out a way to fix it now..ReplyDeleteReplies

Ended up folding them in half again, fits only 7 across, but not as wide then. & i sadly can't see the pattern as well. At least they all fit nicer though!Delete
Folding them again would have been my suggestion, too. That, or it's a good excuse to get a new dresser! :)Delete
Maybe folding that last time in thirds would work, instead of in half twice.Delete
Oh my goodness - why haven't I ever thought of this? And no more digging through piles to find the shirt you want :)ReplyDelete

Don't they get all wrinked, though, folded so many times?ReplyDeleteReplies
They tend to get creases in the them, but no more than folding them in the drawer the other way. I usually take out the one I want and hang it in the shower room to "steam" out the wrinkles in the morning.Delete
such a simple but helpful diy! did it immediately.ReplyDelete
I organize my undies like this! That's even more fun!ReplyDelete
Thank you SO much for this simple yet brilliant idea! After reading I ran upstairs and reorganized my entire dresser. My previously chaotic and near overflowing drawers now have room to spare. I'm ecstatic!ReplyDelete
Thank you for this idea! Just completed the shirt drawer and decided to reorganize the rest! I'll do hubbies tomorrow! Thanks again.ReplyDelete

All of my problems solved :)ReplyDelete
I love this idea... we've been hanging our clothes and using the dressers for underwear and socks... now there's too many clothes to hang. Great idea, do you know if they pull out easily, or do three or four try to come out with the others? That was my problem when I used to lay them flat in the drawer.ReplyDelete
If you don't pack them too tightly, it's pretty easy to pull out just one (I usually keep my hand on the others, just in case). And they do fall down a little when you pull too many out, but it's easy to fix the stack when you put clean ones back in! :)ReplyDelete
Woo Hoo!! I just did this to my drawers.I took an overflowing drawer and made room for more! Anyone want to go shopping!!ReplyDelete
I love this idea. I just started blogging, but I'm featuring this idea with a link to this page on Monday as one of my favorite pins on Pinterest, I hope that's okay! It will be up on June 25 @ planprepareandprovide.comReplyDelete

My Joe's shirts are getting a lot of notice! You guys can spot them from a mile away... way to go! :)Delete
Genius idea, except when I folded all my t-shirts, they're taller than the height of the drawer, so it won't shut now! Gutted as I thought this would have been perfect for what I needed.ReplyDelete
Will be measuring depth of drawers next time I go shopping.
Cheers for the tip! :)Replies
Oh no! The curse of shallow drawers! Perhaps you can do an extra fold in your shirts to make them shorter?Delete
- AnonymousJuly 18, 2012 at 1:43 PM
I have always folded my shirts like this anyway, however, I laid them flat. My 8 year old daughter has an over flowing drawer of shirts and as soon as I read this, I went to her room and redid her drawer.....AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
Thanks!! :)
Thank you!!!!! I'm going to do this asap! My t-shirt drawer will now have way more space!ReplyDelete
Just did mine today! I did my own little tutorial on my blog here: http://fightingcomet.blogspot.com/2012/07/getting-organized-clothing-drawers.htmlReplyDelete
It makes my drawers so much more organized! I have a TON of room now, and can see everything properly. :)
Thank you SO much for this simple yet brilliant idea!ReplyDelete
Great blog; happy I found you!
- AnonymousJuly 25, 2012 at 4:32 PM
I found that the folded t-shirts would fall over if you didn't have enough "sandwiched" in the row. So, I experimented and discovered that rolling the shirts (as suggested when packing a suitcase) worked, too. I still ended up stacking the rolled shirts two deep, but it's way better than having a stack of 5-6 shirts folded the regular way (and it would work for shallow drawers, as well)ReplyDelete
- WhitneyAugust 4, 2012 at 9:54 AM
LOVE this!!!! I can't wait to use it when I move into a much smaller space for my overflowing wardrobe!ReplyDelete
This just changed my organisational world. Thank you!!ReplyDelete
OMG. We have one chest of drawers and one closet, and I am sick of only having a third of the closet and one drawer to myself because of DH's unending supply of T-shirts! Lifesaver!ReplyDelete
I'm actually going to do this...ReplyDelete
Thanks so much! I did it and I have more space.ReplyDelete
Oh I LOVE this!! Thank you for posting :D!! This may actually mean I can get away with NOT buying yet another chest of drawers for our dressing room (makes us sound fancy, it's just that our bedroom has a weird dividing wall in it meaning it's only big enough to take the bed and a couple items in one half, and the wardrobes etc in the other half :D!).ReplyDelete

My drawers are very short so I tried rolling my t-shirts rather than folding (they were too tall then) and it turned out great! Now I can see all my shirts at once!ReplyDelete

My husband tended to wear the same 5 polos. I did this with them and we get along much better. Why I never thought to do this with tshirts, I dunno. :)ReplyDelete
I saw this while perusing Pinterest over my Sunday morning coffee and immediately had to go reorganize my 5-year-old son's t-shirt drawer. (I only had to fold his in thirds because they're smaller.) Now he can see all his shirts without digging through the entire drawer and making a huge mess. Happy day!ReplyDelete
Argh! I love it. Thanks for this. =DReplyDelete
I did this to all my drawers and the amazing thing everything fits now! I can't believe it and I am so proud of my accomplishment I want to take pictures of my results and post them, but really who wants to see my clothes. :)ReplyDelete

Do you have a solution to keep the shirts vertical as shirts are removed as worn? I would assume that the rows would fall over as shirts are removed.ReplyDeleteReplies
They do fall over a little, but not too terribly. I find that the folded shirts still retain their shape well enough. And I don't usually go through that many t-shirts in a week, so once I do laundry, everything fits fine again.Delete
I have seen compression bookends, kind of like what a stapler does. You might be able to use one in your drawer, I havent tried this but your question made it come to mind. As you remove shirts, it shrinks to keep them all in place. I think its called an expansible spring-loaded retention bookend. then you could probably make small plastic dividers for between your shirts to make it easier to slide in and out, only the shirt pulled will come out. Just a few thoughts. Put a retention bookend in your drawer and put a piece of plastic between each shirt. then if you make the plastic slightly larger, you could even put labels on them.Delete
I was seriously at my wits end over our lack of storage space, so much so that I was about to pare our wardrobes down to a fraction of what it is. You just saved our wardrobe from that unfortunate fate! :) Thank-you so much for sharing!ReplyDelete

Omg! I thought i was folding my shirts the best way possible! Thank you thank you thank you !!ReplyDelete
Thank you so much for this! It's so simple, I can't believe I hadn't thought of it sooner, I did my shirt drawer and a variation on my bottoms drawer as well. My husband saw it and wants me to do his drawers too! :) Thanks again! Amazing!ReplyDelete
I love this so much! My neice has so many shirts and her drawers was so small I thought, so I tried this out! Fits perfectly now! Now I just gotta teach her how to fold and put it up this way!ReplyDelete
Oh this is fantastic. I have so much clothes and my dorm room dresser is so tiny! I have almost all of my clothes stored away! WOOHOO.ReplyDelete
This even works for jeans if you fold them in half along the zipper, then half them twice from belt-loop to bottom hem twice.
I just did this and it's a genius idea! Thanks!!ReplyDelete

how about folding the sleeves in before folding n half...ReplyDelete
- AnonymousDecember 17, 2012 at 2:27 PM
great... but... this method will give you a sort of ugly crease right down the front of your shirt... very visible :(ReplyDelete
folding by thirds, like you see in the stores will work, you just have to play around with the way you do the second 1/3 folds.
for what it's worth..

Sad this did not occur to me before---this is, after all, the very way I learned to fold my white t-shirts in Navy boot camp and the way I still fold my husband's white tees today! Thanks for the reminder :)ReplyDelete

Awesome idea, thank you. I went and tried this, brought my drawer from full to 2/3s full. I have them organized by long-sleeve, short sleeve, sleeveless and then by color. The only con I found was if I grab one and end up not wanting it, it is a little bit of a pain to get it back in the drawer without redoing a part of the row.ReplyDelete
Awesome idea, thanks for helping me rediscover all my old tees!ReplyDelete
Thanks so much! I love this!!ReplyDelete
I hope you don't mind if I share this idea with my friends on Facebook, I'm giving you full credit of course. Thank you for this, it's very useful.ReplyDelete

Love the whole idea but don't like a fold down the middle. Maybe fold the shirt with front facing down, then fold each side to meet in the middle careful to keep the sleeves flat, fold from the bottom up and placing the shirt in the drawer with graphic showing.ReplyDelete
I m really very lazy, but what I have most is tshirts. I love buy tshirt online. so especially I put a closet to hang up the tshirts.ReplyDelete

Hello! I saw this picture on Pinterest earlier this evening, clicked the link to get to here, then flew around my flat re-organising my tshirts in this way! I managed to fit about 3 drawers' worth of tshirts and tops into 2 of them in my chest of drawers (which looks exactly the same as yours - is yours pine?). Oh and if anyone on the outside thinks dong this to one's tshirts is a bit OCD - I have organised mine in this way but also subdivided into general printed tshirts, vest tops, band tshirts, plain black tops, plain purple tops, and black&white stripey tops& tshirts :p Thank you for the inspiraton!ReplyDelete
thanks so much! Just spent an hour refolding all of my shirts. Super nice, now I have room for new shirts!ReplyDelete

Prairie Farms to celebrate 75th anniversary
As part of a year-long celebration of its rich history of providing high-quality dairy products to communities for 75 years, Prairie Farms Dairy is hosting multiple fun-filled anniversary events. The events will take place during the month of June in 17 communities throughout the Midwest and will coincide with June Dairy Month. The 17th and final event will be June 29 at the St. Louis Zoo.
All events are open to the public and free of charge. Each location will feature a variety of activities and giveaways for families, community members and employees to enjoy. Activities will include a sampling station, where attendees can sample multiple Prairie Farms products, an education area set up to inform attendees about a variety of topics related to dairy, new products, farming and general health and an area where attendees can interact with local farm families.
Each family attending is also eligible to register for two great prizes. The first gives families a chance to enter to win a family trip for four to the Magical Theme Park in Orlando, Fla. The drawing for this prize will occur at the final event at the zoo and the winning family will be notified. The second prize, a year's supply of Prairie Farms Dairy product, will be drawn and awarded at each location.
"We are excited to bring the communities we serve into our anniversary celebration with these events, and June
Dairy Month is a great time to celebrate our cooperative's rich history, our farm families and employees," says Ed Mullins, executive vice president and chief executive officer. "Attendees will be able to see what Prairie Farms is all about, serving the community and bringing quality products from our farms to their tables."
Attendees will also have the chance to sign a section of the "World's Largest Anniversary Card." Sections of the card will be distributed to each location to be signed and returned to St. Louis for the final event where they will be pieced together to form the full version of the card.
For more information visit www.prairiefarms.com/celebrate75 or contact Rebecca Leinenbach at 314-513-3580.
Headquartered in Carlinville, Ill., Prairie Farms Dairy Inc. is a farmer-owned dairy cooperative. Founded in 1938, Prairie Farms manufactures and distributes a complete line of fluid milk and dairy products throughout the Midwest to retail outlets, schools and food service outlets.

Welcome to my website. After a great time in Spain selling my Modelminiatures tools, accessories and kits at the many wonderful competitions in Spain, Portugal and Europe, I have returned to the UK with my now wife Sol.
I am keeping my website and interest in the modelmaking hobby alive here. I am interested in scale modelling, tackling all subjects from cars, ships, aircraft and military vehicles. I have even been known to attempt some figure painting! My main era of interest is WW2 aircraft and vehicles although I do like some modern jets as well.
On my website my aim is to keep as close to up-date as possible with the shows and events in the scale modelling world in the UK, in Europe and the world.
I have three events pages and if you wish me to promote your event then please email me through the contact page.
I have a gallery where I have many photos and images of models and events I have visited.
I will keep trying to visit as many events as possible and show photos in the gallery. I do attend shows with Paul of Little-cars.com and along with Brian we help sell his tools and accessories here in the UK.
Please keep looking from time to time as I am up-dating all the time. If you wish me to add any content or an event you know would be good here, please contact me through the contact page.
Maybe we will meet at one of the shows.
May you always have fun making that favourite scale model replica.
Thank you for looking, Pete and Sol.

Civic Health IndexCivic Data ChallengeService YearThe Civic 50Annual Conference and Events
A Civic Nation: Executive Summary of America's First Civic Health Assessment
September 16, 2010
The National Conference on Citizenship (NCoC), founded in 1946 and chartered by Congress in 1953, is charged with the mission of advancing our nation's civic life. In accordance with this mission, NCoC has produced America's Civic Health Index for the last four years to measure the level of civic engagement and health of our nation's democracy. As a result of the passage of the bipartisan Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, this work is expanding through an annual Civic Health Assessment. The Civic Health Assessment will measure America's civic habits across a wide range of indicators in an effort to strengthen citizen participation in their communities, states, and nation. Below is NCoC's executive summary of the leading findings from the 2010 Civic Health Assessment, based on research conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau and U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2008 and 2009. This document supplements an issue brief we are jointly releasing with the Corporation for National and Community Service. The joint brief is titled "Civic Life in America: Key Findings on the Civic Health of the Nation."

Felon mistakenly released from jail
Authorities in Brevard County say a man was mistakenly released from jail.
According to Florida Today, Sheriff Wayne Ivey says Lamanceo Dorsey, 35, was supposed to be held until he saw a judge.
Police say he was arrested on burglary and grand theft charges at the end of April.
He walked out mistakenly on the same day. Police say Dorsey hadn't seen a judge and jail staff allowed him to post bail of $7,000.
Sheriff Ivey says Dorsey was on probation for a heroin conviction. According to court rules, Ivey says he should have been held without bond.
Jail staff looked past the probation thinking his recent crime replaced the administrative order.
Sheriff Ivey says it's up to Dorsey's probation officer to decide what happens to Dorsey. He can be arrested again for violating probation.

A judge has ruled against Hulk Hogan in the sex tape case that has been going on since the video was leaked back in 2012. The website that owns the footage has now been informed that they are within their legal rights to publish the video and do as pleased.
"One time, and this is a true story, we were in South Africa and [Cena] started battle rapping. He started rapping with someone and it was awesome. He went five minutes just talking about things around the room. And we were like, 'Oh my gosh. Where did that come from?' Tommy Dreamer heard it and Tommy took it to Shane McMahon and Shane McMahon heard it and took it to Vince McMahon and next thing you know he's a rapper on TV…and he had already been with us six months or so. Slowly but surely he just became John Cena the superstar."

Several people within WWE brought up the idea of interviewing Shane McMahon for a DVD, but upper management informed them to avoid doing that.

Siberian iris just happen to be one of my favorite iris plants.
They are easily grown, tough as nails, have few if any pest problems, survive in my cold zone 4 garden and bloom without flopping over.
What's not to like?
Siberian Iris are hardy down into USDA zone 3 and will bloom reliably there. They are usually hardy into USDA zone 2.
Zone 9 is the warm end so figure you can grow this plant almost anywhere except the hottest parts of the continent.
Siberian Iris - variety unknown
This iris prefers full sun but will thrive in light shade. The more heat you give it, the more shade it will tolerate. In other words, if you're growing in the South, it will take more shade than in the North.
Moderately fertile soils seem to produce the best flowering rather than heavily fertilized gardens.
In spring and summer it prefers a damp soil and this is why it makes an excellent bog or waterside plant. In the fall and winter however, it does want to be dry – standing water will kill it over the winter.
The plant is very easy to divide early in the spring or later in the fall. It is also relatively easy from seed and almost every flower will produce a seed pod after bloom.
Early summer is the height of the blooms. Early to mid-June in USDA zone 4.
One of the reasons I like this plant so much is that in my garden, I rarely had a problem with it. I occasionally will see thrips but that's about the extent of any problems.

Shoutout: Just because we've come to expect 32 and nine from Tony Parker like it's no big deal, shoutout to Aron Baynes for throwing down a nice 10 points and seven rebounds in 15 minutes of playing time. Big dude even got a standing ovation for his work in the second quarter, so if you don't know who he is, you best get familiar.
Not so much: After the Greatest First Round Ever™, all four Game 1s of round two have been basically over by the start of the fourth quarter. Yeah, Indiana only lost by six, but that's because they decided to start hitting threes after the game was decided. Take me back, I wanna go back.
Teary: If you haven't yet watched Kevin Durant's MVP speech, take a look. Might want a Kleenex though.
Shoutout to moms everywhere. Moms are the best.

Hello World Lyrics - Lady Antebellum
Review The Song (1)
Traffic crawls, cell phone calls
Talk radio screams at me
Through my tinted window I see
A little girl, rust red minivan
She's got chocolate on her face
Got little hands, and she waves at me
Yeah, she smiles at me
Hello world
How've you been?
Good to see you, my old friend
Sometimes I feel cold as steel
Broken like I'm never gonna heal
I see a light, a little hope
In a little girl
Hello world
Every day I drive by
A little white church
It's got these little white crosses
Like angels in the yard
Maybe I should stop on in
Say a prayer
Maybe talk to God
Like he is there
Oh I know he is there
Yeah, I know he's there
Hello world
How've you been?
Good to see you, my old friend
Sometimes I feel as cold as steel
And broken like I'm never going to heal
I see a light
A little grace, a little faith unfurled
Hello world
Sometimes I forget what living's for
And I hear my life through my front door
And I'll be there
Oh I'm home again
I see my wife, my little boy, little girl
Hello world
Hello world
All the empty disappears
I remember why I'm here
Just surrender and believe
I fall down on my knees
Oh hello world
Hello world

Oct 11, 2012The first season, to me, was a mixed bag. It started out not very strong, not using the potential that was there. Luckily, the second half of the show was better, giving us some interesting plots and funny moments.
I hoped they could take that verve to the second season, but having seen three episodes, I must say that I'm disappointed.
They have even more characters in the show now than at the beginning of the first season, but they don't really know what to do with them.
Instead of developing the characters, the show currently relies a lot on oneliners, many of them could come up in any sitcom.
It all feels very played out even though it's just season 2. Most of the characters are still one note.
How about coming up with more backstory for Max and Caroline? You can always introduce some people from Max's and Caroline's past. Family issues are always good material for comedy. Instead we get Caroline's father in jail giving us some "heartfelt" moments.
What I find odd is that we still know hardly anything about Max, even though she's one of the leads. Why is that? There are four more regulars in the show and only half of them have something to do.
That plot arc with Oleg and Sophie was ok, but it now feels stale. He's horny and she's a tramp, we get it.
Han Lee, the owner of the diner isn't an interesting character and it feels like there is almost no use for him. The worst thing, I must say, is what they did with Garret Morris. Why is he in this show? Just to have someone of color present? Ok, if he needs the money, keep him in the show by all means, but give the man something to do! It's depressing seeing him sit there and having about 2 lines per episode. He deserves better!
All in all, the show has the potential, but it needs better writing and fresh ideas. For now, it's not enough to call it a good show.… Expand
Jan 17, 2013This is an amazing series. Everything about the charecters has improved, the jokes even better, and finnaly one of them is in a relationship! Also, the episode where Han pulls out a GUN(!) was pure comedy gold.
Jun 17, 2013Season 1 was a 7.7/10 but season 2 is a 8.6/10 and it had better stuff in it, I honestly cannot say more. But I obviously have to so I I can fill a 150 characters lol.
Aug 15, 201310 out of 10, a comedy thats based on 2 young women trying to stand on their own feet, I also love the title 2 broke girls, its adorable and hilarious, Im absolutely looking forward to watching the 3. season. (I just dont like this American-Korean stereotype and jokes about him being small all the time..it was ok for 3-4 times but please)
Sep 23, 2014The Wantonly Queer (tm) agenda propagandizing made this season difficult to find acceptable watchable show instances.
2 Broke Girls would be a 9 if the humor would be other than base.
Feb 5, 2014Love this show, love the one liners, Max and Caroline make a great team. The whole show is a pleasure to watch, I look forward to Monday nights..... And I agree with the person who said people who gave this show a bad review just don't get the humor, a little bit of sarcastic adult humor, some great adult one liners, you need to get the humor to love the show, its not for kids, its for the adult with a quirky sarcastic sense of humor.… Expand
The endless sex jokes, most of them uttered expertly by deadpan Dennings to bubbly Behrs, are a pain. [12 Nov 2012, p.45]

With roughly 60 percent of Americans now living in urban zones of more than 200,000 residents, finding a quick escape from big-city stress has become a lot harder. But some large metropolitan areas are lucky enough to have undeveloped tracts of nature so large, they can offer a taste of wilderness within their city limits. Here are six of our favorite spots.
Rock Creek Park, Washington, D.C.
A long swath of green cutting through the northwestern quadrant of the nation's capital, this park created in 1890 offers a slew of amenities, from a planetarium and an amphitheater to a golf course and tennis courts. At more than 2,000 acres, it's the largest urban natural park administered by the National Park Service, and it offers plenty of breathing space. Thirty-two miles of hiking trails meander through wetlands, meadows and a deciduous forest of oak, hickory, sycamore and maple. Only a few miles from Capitol Hill, the park nonetheless teems with animal life, including white-tailed deer, foxes, beavers, neotropical migratory birds and the country's largest concentration of raccoons.
Griffith Park, Los Angeles, California
With more than 4,210 acres, this municipal park and wilderness area offers the 3.8 million residents of Los Angeles — and at least one resident mountain lion — an appropriately sprawling space to get away from it all. An observatory, the Greek Theater, the Hollywood sign and other famous attractions dot the perimeter of the park. But its location in the sometimes rugged Santa Monica Mountains, at elevations ranging from 384 to 1,625 feet, has ensured that a huge portion remains as it was when Native American villages occupied its lower slopes. During hikes through chaparral-covered terrain and deep canyons, you'll encounter few people but plenty of other California natives, such as local species of oak, walnut, lilac, mountain mahogany and sumac.
Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Refuge, New Orleans, Louisiana

You could wrap a million candles into a torch
And hope that it steers you home
You could cut all the telephone wires
And hope that nobody does get through
I might not have the power of telepathy
But I'm gonna be contacting you
Because I borrowed a book that I saw
Was planted deep inside your bag
It gave me an excuse to see you again
But I'm not a thief I'll give it back
And don't you ever wonder whose living in that house?
It's too small for people? we all said
But there's people in the floorboards said the mouse

And I showed you the things that I made
You didn't think that they were too great
But I'm glad that you thought
And didn't think what you're taught
Because everybody elses mind is grey
And we kept up that ad for two dates before it needed glue
Well I didn't drink what you drank
You didn't sink when I sank
So there's little else for us to do
And don't you ever wonder whose living in that house?
It's too small for people we all said
But there's people in the floorboards said the mouse
Well I didn't say goodbye today
Oh I didn't - the cow's away
I tied it to the neck of a seafaring deck
That was sailing on down your way
But you pour petrol all over
The ship you used to sail to sea
You didn't think that you'd be coming home again
So you said fine out of me
Don't you ever ponder on things we never said?
Yes I did but when we were kids
Now it's too late because we're dead
Because we're dead
Because we're dead
Because we're dead
Because we're dead

Nuquí has long beaches, and it's best to discover them with a guide. /Photo: Natalia Gómez Carvajal.
Nuquí is so isolated from the rest of civilization that it's perfect for rest and relaxation away from the bustle of the cities. The sea is immense, the waves are high and the currents strong: the jungle swarms with life: there are river and long beaches and charming people.
Here are some practical tips to think about before you go there to find a haven of peace on beaches where thousands of little crabs scurry away from visiting human feet.

Fey World Ch. 03bymadam_noe©
Barnarct was an ancient city founded by the empire that had come before the last empire. It was huge with buildings as tall as ten stories of stone, and a great wall surrounding the city with a moat and sewer outside. There was only one gate and I grew nervous as we approached it.
The wedding feast was close and it seemed like everyone was there. A bottleneck arose at the gate and Bornagold was sent ahead to investigate. I took Pietyr by the hand and whispered the plan as we watched Elfgwyven peer over the shorter crowd to see what was holding things up.
His attention locked on something and we took our chance. I dashed my brother to the side of the road towards the secret gate. With everyone's attention scattered we entered the door and found a lit torch and a guard.
"Your highnesses!" He seemed so glad to see us we knew the news of our guards' murders had been spread. "You're home!"
"We must see our parents, right away."
He nodded and scooped Pietyr up into his arms and started to walk. I glanced back at the door and wondered if my husband would be anything like Elfgwyven. I hoped so.
He'd lost her. He cursed in seventeen languages making people stare until Bornagold came back. "We can make it through, if you have your papers."
"I do."
"Where are the others?"
"They've run off and I don't see her."
"At such great height with that hair, she cannot hide easily." And yet she was nowhere to be found.
Elfgwyven cursed again.
"What is it?" Bornagold asked. "She is only a woman."
"She is my sensschat," Elfgwyven grumbled.
Bornagold stood struck. A sensschat was a soul mate, the perfect other half. Elfgwyven had lived five hundred years without finding his, he'd given up and agreed to marry the human princess to form a desired alliance.
"I must find her. The king must know I will offer him the same alliance for her hand. I do not care if she is the lowliest pauper."
"Hold on, how hard can she be to find? All these people are short and dark. You there, woman!" He caught a middle aged woman with plump features and a wary smile.
"Ah, fey men here for the wedding of your king. What can I do for you?"
"Do you know of a woman, very tall, red gold hair?"
She looked at Elfgwyven as if he'd grown an extra head. "You're a kidder, right?" She threw her head back and laughed while they patiently waited. She saw they were staring at her and she cleared her throat. "Oh, well, you must mean Queen Anni."
Elfgwyven felt panic in his breast. Queen Anni? The woman he had held was a virgin, no man's wife. "Queen Anni?"
"Her official title is Princess Hannah, but by the laws of the Norselund, as the last remaining member of a royal house, she is queen of all the north lands. Queen Anni is her nickname. She's going to be married to your king tomorrow."
Elfgwyven felt his knees tremble and sat down in the road with a loud laugh.
The woman scurried away, sure that all the fairies were mad.
My father was a booming man of loud voice, broad shoulders, and black hair. He was nothing like my birth father in terms of stature or appearance, but in bearing they were very much the same. We hugged after Pietyr had his turn and he ruffled my hair.
The reunion with my "mother" (who had never officially adopted me) was much cooler. After all, it had been her elder sister who had poisoned my mother. I had killed the woman in my grief and my father covered it all up for my protection. Darnal had never forgiven me.
We told our tale of the strange wolf men again and again until it was committed to memory of all those who mattered. At long last we retired.
I marched to my room, ignored my ladies in waiting, and fell face first on the bed into a deep sleep.
When I woke a bath was waiting and the fussiness began. Tonight was a banquet for the entire court and tonight I was to meet my future husband. I was primped over and over, softened, moisturized, scrubbed, perfumed, powdered. My hair was washed and dried carefully, brushed until it shone and then braided in the most complicated manner the court now dictated was fashionable.
I was forced to unbind my breasts and squeeze into a dress that was somewhere between blue and green, reminding me of the sea. It was cut low and scooping and I felt, guiltily, that Elfgwyven would have approved. There was boning in the dress so that when it was tied my stomach was sucked as tiny and flat as it was ever going to be.
I wore my mother's jewels, lapis lazuli interwoven with gold wire and amber. Wearing them was an acceptance to the world that yes, I was queen of the now destroyed Norselund. Yes, I was a fit choice for a fairy King who had lowered himself to marry a mortal.
He was king of the Seelie court, all that was shining and beautiful. There were tensions with the Unseelie court, all that was dark and tempting. He needed human allies to tip the scales of his cold war, just as we needed fey allies to dispel the growing empire to the east.
It was my duty to stop two wars by giving my body and life to a man I'd never met. Such was the fate of a royal, but that didn't mean I had to like it.
When at last I was pronounced beautiful Pietyr arrived as my escort. He was dressed in velvets and lion's furs, a miniature version of our father and looking every square inch an impish prince.
"I cut a fine figure, don't I?" he asked as a last minute flower was tucked behind my ear.
"You certainly do. And I?"
"You'll do." He took my hand and followed four guards into the hall where four more waited to fall in behind my ladies in waiting and their escorts, who snapped to attention.
"Are you nervous?" he asked. Some ladies giggled.
"I'll ask you the same thing the day you meet your wife."
"I'll be sure to pick her myself."
"If you're smart you'll start finding out about eligible young princesses from the eastern empire. With a marriage between us and them there would never be any war."
He frowned. "I like girls from here, they're so much prettier."
More giggles.
We made it to the dais as they finished announcing my father's titles and we knew we had to wait, for Pietyr and I had many.
"Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you Prince Pietyr Alexekov Michael Anders Luxberg du Castille Windmer, Crown Prince of Andorland, Prince of Marxus, Marquis of Waterston, Earl of Ravenswood, Viscount of Torm, Marquis of Essent, Prince of Aucklund. May I present to you Princess Hannah Freyja the Fifth Janusdotti of Jarlsburg Windmer, Princess of Angorland, Queen of Norselund, Baroness of Loikiti, Princess of Aucklund."
After that mouthful we stepped into the light as the court rose and bowed. Pietyr and I walked to our parents where Pietyr sat at my mother's left, I two chairs to my father's right. Between us would be my future husband.
"Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you King Elfgwyven Marcusius Seelie, King of the Seelie court, Prince of all Fairydom, wielder of the hands of flesh and and light."
Okay, that sounded ominous.
I rose like everyone else and my great height let me see over my father's chair. My heart stopped. Elfgwyven. Elfgwyven was the king!

Join the Bum Rush for Charity Water!Written by Jeff Larche on October 15, 2010 – 8:51 am -
I've been blogging about the book series Age of Conversation, and its affiliated Social Media Bum Rushes for charity, since the first one in 2008. I'm proud to have a chapter in their latest volume, Age Of Conversation III: Time To Get Busy. Within its pages I'm in extremely good company, with 170 other social media pros. My very brief chapter (really a micro-chapter, with a lower word count than most of my blog posts) is on social media analytics.
I am pleased to announce that we're staging another Bum Rush today, on Blog Action Day.
Each year any blogger who wishes to participate in Blog Action Day writes on the same theme. This year's theme is water. So let me tell you about Charity Water. It's a nonprofit organization that brings safe and clean drinking water to developing nations.
Now, every sale of Age Of Conversation III: Time To Get Busy goes to support Charity Water and help developing nations get clean, safe drinking water.
How cool is that? Please join our bum rush. You'll learn more about the power of social media, and become part of the solution to one of the world's toughest health challenges.
How do you join the Bum Rush? Generate more sales of book at Amazon.com. Purchase it yourself and encourage others to as well. If you work for an organization that hands out Christmas gifts, get them to pop for multiple copies. They make great gifts!
One caveat: Please only purchase 1 copy at a time because Amazon.com counts bulk orders as one.

Looking for ways to promote your cause? Look no further than this Conversation Bum RushWritten by Jeff Larche on March 11, 2008 – 5:20 pm -
As marketing technologists, we are like entomologists in a thriving new ecosystem. Everywhere you look there are new species of creatures flitting about, evolving — it seems — right before our eyes. They may use similar techniques for survival and reproduction, but the combinations employed vary slightly from one to the next, and by observing the most successful species, you can learn much about surviving yourself in this teeming Web 2.0 forest.
Now don your pith helmets, and behold the authors of a book on social media. You will not encounter a more highly adaptive critter. How do they thrive?
Well, you wouldn't expect them to typically run ads in the New York Times, or on the sides of cabs, for that matter. To promote the latest edition of their book, they are practicing what they preach. And they will succeed.
Watch and learn.
On March 29, join a social media movement (and help a good cause) by purchasing the latest Age of Conversation. And for an excellent blueprint for promoting the book, read Chris Wilson's blog entry on the campaign (by way of David Berkowitz). The tactics Chris outlines are how the most successful social media "creatures" are surviving in this thrilling — and dangerous — new media jungle.
Watch and learn.
And, come the end of March, buy the book!

Informal poll-- how many New York Chowhounds realize that if you order "chow mein" in New York you're actually getting chop suey? [moved from Manhattan]
- Mr Taster Dec 25, 2009 12:33 AM
This has been bugging me for years, and I'd love to know your opinions.
First, my Chow cred. I grew up in New Jersey eating Chinese food my whole life. I now live in Los Angeles, am married to a Taiwanese woman, have spent several months traveling and eating all throughout China and Taiwan, and I speak Mandarin.
After many years of traveling and eating across this country and around the world, I came to see that the same Chinese-American dish ordered in Topeka is not necessarily the same as the same dish ordered in New York (or Beijing).
When I came to LA well over a decade ago, I remember ordering "chicken chow mein" and was surprised to have gotten not the soupy gravy with meat and vegetables with crunchy noodles, but rather a dish of stir-fried noodles, veggies and meat. (This is what I would have called "lo mein" back home).
Eventually I came to the odd, ground-shaking conclusion that in New York City (or New Jersey), when you order "chow mein" you get what Topekans, for example, would call chop suey. When I learned to speak Mandarin, I discovered that "chow mian" literally means "stir fried noodles", not "thickened soupy mess of veggies and meat over rice with a few crunchy deep-fried wontons sprinkles over the top".
Why or how this widespread misapplication occurred is an utter mystery to me, and if anyone here can enlighten me I'd love to know. Does it not seem insane to anyone else that this is so deeply embedded in the food consciousness of New Yorkers, and that there is no attempt being made to educate people or correct it?
As a kid I grew up eating "chicken chow mein", never realizing that I was essentially doing the equivalent of going into an Italian place, ordering a pizza, and getting a chicken parm. But the thing is, the Italian owner knows I want chicken parm, because people have been asking for pizza and getting chicken parms for so long that it's just expected.
It's lunacy, I tells ya!
Your thoughts?
Mr Taster
re: Steveinjapan
100% seconded.
I don't think I've even thought about chow mein or chop suey for 30 years. Horrendous glop.
re: gordeaux
You should come to Toronto, and try Cantonese Chow Mein. It is a bed of egg noodles which are boiled first, and then quickly fried in the wok. I like the cantonese version because it contains a mixture of meat, all of it stir fried with vegetables like water chestnuts, broccoli, carrots, etc. The meat usually contains chicken, shrimp, and bbq pork. If you're lucky, you get scallops as well.
It's not at all "soupy" or "gloppy" -it has no sauce to speak of, and its moistness comes from the little bit of oil it was fried in. It doesn't come with those deep fried crunchy noodles.It gets its crispness from the water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, etc. Its one of our favourite dishes. Chicken chow mein is boring by comparison.
re: FrankD
This is more or less my experience of Cantonese Chow Mein when ordered in NYC's Chinatown for the past 40 years.
Growing up in NY my favorite school lunch was CCM, that dish with the gloppy veggies, chicken served on rice with crunchy noodles. My grandfather had a restaurant in Columbus, OH and CCM was the same dish. La Choy (canned Chinese food) has Chicken Chow Mein and that's what it is too.
My experience in NYC Chinatown was "Lo Mein" which was stir fried whatever with noodles...same as Chicken Chow Mein you'd get in Los Angeles, stir fried with noodles.
My first experience ordering "Lo Mein" in Los Angeles was a shocking surprise to get a pile of plain noodles topped with the meat of your choice say char siu and a side of plain broth.
BTW: Paul's Kitchen in downtown LA has the best old school BBQ pork chow mein around.
re: monku
Here's my take for NY/NJ Cantonese restaurant style Chow Mein
re: Mr Taster
It is served differently in different restaurants. That's why this and the other posts that fourunder has linked to are topics of discussion.
Hong Kong Style is crispy noodles, Cantonese style is stir fried noodles.
re: Mr Taster
they're crispy, but they're not canned La Choy noodles or anything like that
re: thew
Hong kong style chow mein is a fried noodle 'cake' with vegetably gravy over top.
It's a wholly different animal than the new york chow mein that is being discussed here. I think the idea is to top a meat & vegetable stir-fry with crunchy noodles.
I think the mid-western Chinese style chow mein is because 50+ years ago there were no fresh or soft Chinese noodles available in those regions, only those crunchy chow mein noodles. Chinese food probably didn't become a recognized main stream cuisine in the mid-west until maybe the mid 1940's. My grandfather's Chinese restaurant in Columbus 50+ years ago (he had two restaurants in Columbus and one in Cleveland) didn't have soft noodle dishes, only those crunchy chow mein noodles. We loved going to the kitchen and snacking on them all day, like potato chips. My brother who lives in Ohio said he didn't have access to fresh chow mein noodles until maybe 30 years ago.
True, there is a misapplication of terms, but they will never change.
I am aware that outside of Metro New York, chow mein is a dish that we grew up with called Lo Mein. However, New York area chow mein and chop suey are not the same, although both are vegetables in a starchy sauce. Chow mein had large pieces of celery and onions that were crunchy when you bit into them. Chop Suey has softer, mushy vegetables. Both are still served that way in my area of Fairfield County, CT.
I grew up eating traditional American Cantonese food in the 50s and 60s and experienced the wave of Szechaun, Hunan, Hion Kong food as politics changed and more Chinese came, and then those leaving Hong Kong before the British returned the colony to China. The quick takeout places are all mostly run by Fujianese and serve a homogonized stylke of Chinese-American cooking.
I have eaten 'Chinese' food all over the globe and until the last 15 years it tended to be greatly influenced by what foodstuffs were available in the local market and the tastes of the locals where the Chinese emigrated. Now with China fully open to foreign trade and reliable jet cargo transport authentic Chinese ingredients make 'true' Chinese food available. However, most locals around the globe don''t want or appreciate 'true' Chinese cooking, they want the hyphenated Chinese-xxxx food adjusted for their palate.
Isn't there something similar to this going on with gyro vs. souvlaki? I originally learned about gyros in NYC in the 1970's, but later on I saw the same thing, i.e. lamb cut off a big wheel of meat after being grilled on one of those vertical rotisseries, being sold as "souvlaki".
re: johnb
Not in the Greek restaurants in Toronto - gyros are that mystery meat on a big spit, and souvlaki is chunks of chicken, lamb, or pork threaded on to a skewer and grilled. Gyros are almost always served in a pita, while when most people order souvlaki, it comes on a plate and you eat it with a knife and fork. However, they serve "souvlaki on a pita" for people who want something to go.
re: FrankD
I think what you describe is the "classic" or "correct" association of the names with the dishes as they would be found in an authoritative source. But out in the wild I have seen them switched around.
re: ipsedixit
What is a "real" Chinese restaurant?
re: ipsedixit
They should also serve Peking Duck, and their sweet & sour sauce should not feature corn starch as its main ingredient.
re: FrankD
There are thousands of "real" Chinese restaurants in North America that do not serve Peking Duck. Cantonese restaurants, Sichuan restaurants, Hunanese restaurants, and so on. Chinese cuisine is very regional, and Peking Duck is a regional specialty, just as tea-smoked duck is.
re: ipsedixit
Let's put it another way: chop suey is not a real Chinese dish (i.e. one that would be served in China). Chow mein is a real Chinese dish, although it doesn't bear much resemblence to the NY version.
re: Ruth Lafler
"Let's put it another way: chop suey is not a real Chinese dish (i.e. one that would be served in China)."
Of course not...it was probably the result of only American available vegetables like onions, celery, carrots and bean sprouts and soy sauce.
re: monku
Of course not...it was probably the result of only American available vegetables like onions, celery, carrots and bean sprouts and soy sauce.
This is very true....back in the 50's and 60's the various types of cabbages popular today were probably very limited. Snow Pea Pods and such may have been scarce as well.....In my friend's restaurant however, I distinctly recall Napa, Bok Choy and Shanghai cabbages in both Chop Suey. It was not a terrible dish as most have described in this thread.
Chow Mein was made with onions, celery, bean sprouts, bok choy and ground pork in Beef and Chicken and Red Roast Pork varieties. Shrimp Chow Mein omitted the ground pork.
Depending on where you go in NYC, chow mein can either be pan-fried noodles topped with meats in a gravy (Hong Kong style that people are referring to in this thread) or meats and veggies in a cornstarch-laden sauce topped with fried noodles.
I've never ordered chow mein in NYC and have received what you refer to as "lo mein." Doesn't mean this doesn't exist -- just never ran into it.
It is pretty surprising when you see how many American Chinese dishes don't even have a distant parent dish in China.
Did anyone see that short documentary investigating the origins of General Tso's Chicken. The filmmakers go to the hometown of THE General Tso and can find no one who's heard of the dish (even from weird/sentimental tourists), nor can they attribute any known dish name to it, after being presented with a photograph.
Unbeknownst to them, their famous General Tso has reached a magnitude of fame and appreciation that they can't grasp, in a foreign land, and for something they'd never expect..
General Tso is their David Hasselhoff.
re: Russel Shank
General Tso's chicken was invented sometime in the 1950's by a Hunanese chef named Peng Chang-Keui, in Taiwan, where he had emigrated with the Nationalist Chinese after Mao kicked them out in the late 40's. It essentially started out as a dish for the Hunanese diaspora in Taiwan. While it isn't traditional, it certainly has authentic roots (this would refer to the dish invented by Peng, not necessarily to imitators). Peng was a highly-regarded Chinese chef, and a very inventive one, who after serving as a main chef for the Chinese leadership in Taiwan finally opened a place in NYC, and reworked the dish for non-Hunanese by adding sugar, and that is the version of GTC most Americans are familiar with. So the "authenticity" of this dish can be argued. Its history also makes it clear why the dish is largely unknown in its "home" province.
The above is a summary of Fuschia Dunlop's discussion of the topic in her "Revolutionary Chinese Cookbook," pp117-122. There are other versions of the story involving other chefs (see the Wikipedia article) but they are broadly similar.
There are notable inconsistencies in the stories. For example, Fuscia Dunlop has an article in the NYT in which she recounted an interview with Chef Peng who stated he had added sugar to the dish for the US palate (same as the story in her book). Yet Jennifer 8 Lee, a writer for the NYT and author of "The Fortune Cookie Chronicles," states that in her interview with the same Chef Peng he emphatically stated that sugar should never be used in the dish. Take your pick.
re: johnb
Chef Peng's original dish was originated in the Sichuan cuisine. It's dark meat chicken coarsely minced and made into croquettes which are crispy outside and decadently rich inside. The sauce is a sugarless fresh garlic sauce with a little chili paste. The Chinese for this is 魚香八塊雞 (in my bad Pinyin: Yu shan ba quai gee) "crispy chicken chunks in garlic sauce." The garlic sauce is not to be confused with the garlic sauce on dishes like "pork with garlic sauce." It's more garlicky and not sweet at all.
General Tso's chicken as it's served in this country is the kind of dish I call "food candy." It appeals to most Americans' love of sugar.
re: shaogo
I doubt that. What is your source? Peng was a native of Hunan, apparently cooking mostly for other Hunanese among the Chinese Nationalists in Taiwan, and named the dish after the greatest historical figure from Hunan, General Tso (Hunan's other great historical figure was Mao, but it's clear why the dish wasn't named after him). I can find no reference to any Sichuan connection at all, and given the numerous Hunanese links, it seems questionable. As to the ingredients, every source I have consulted suggests the dish is and always was made with chunks of chicken, not chopped and made into patties.
You are correct that the original dish did not contain sweetner, and I agree that Americans eat way too much sugar.
We were just discussing this here in Texas the other day, when I suddenly had an irrational craving to order good old fashioned, New York chicken chow mein, and I was trying to figure out what that might be on the menu I was reading. Chow mein here contains noodles, not celery, onions and bean sprouts. Chop suey, if you can find it, is the closest thing to it.
On-topic: the closest thing in the Chinese repertoire to what most of us think is chow mein is "liam mein huang." That means "mixed noodles yellow," literally. It's a "pancake," if you will, made by placing par-cooked noodles in a hot wok with oil and rendering the outside crispy. Then gravy and sliced meat and vegetable are placed on top of the crispy noodle "pancake."
Now, the shredded veggies and meat in white sauce with deep-fried noodles on top may not be authentic, but it's one of my childhood comfort foods. If made with fresh ingredients, cooked right, and sauced with good stock and condiments, it's sure tasty.
re: shaogo
Not in Toronto - chow mein noodles are soft, not crispy. And there's no gravy or sauce placed on the Cantonese version.
