Before & After: Transforming a Dark Kitchen with a DIY Cabinet Makeover Kit
Thrifty Inspirations
After Rachel had her new wood floors installed, it was clear she had a problem- her always darker than desired kitchen was now even more basement-like because her cabinets now matched the tone of her floor. Determined to create a lighter, brighter space without spending a lot of money, Rachel decided to use paint to transform her kitchen.
Rachel used a Rustoleum Countertop Transformations Kit to transform her counters from dark grey to desert sand. The room was already looking brighter but not bright enough so it was onto more paint. After installing a backsplash of beadboard wallpaper, Rachel used another Rustoleum product to refinish her cabinets in pure white. The project took six days over three months but the end result was certainly a brighter more welcoming space for Rachel and her husband.

Looks great! I
'm curious about the counter paint -- how's it holding up? (This is the only installation of that product I have seen, so not a lot of real-life input about it so far!)
That's pretty amazing, especially for DIY. I'm really interested in Rustoleum. From the website description, it offers the benefits of painting without the sanding and priming - but is it really just that easy? I mean, the results say yes, but I'm wondering what is in the material that makes it so much easier to use.
And I'm wondering how sturdy it is against wear and tear.
The under counter lights help so much. Beautiful transformation!
It looks great! What a transformation!
very well done. kind of astonishing - a lot of care and patience involved.
Wow!! I didn't think the before picture needed any tweaking, but the after picture is just astonishing!!
The after looks nice, but am I the only one who thinks the choices were poor or at least short-term solutions? Wallpaper as a backsplash? Painted countertops? Maybe I'm harder on my kitchen then other people but those things don't seem durable enough.
I do understand why she'd want to paint the cabinets because of the floors, and it's better to paint than throw away, they are lovely either way.
I think I would have liked the white cabinets with the original black countertops and a different backsplash treatment. It's a bit too white, but an improvement nonetheless.
I've read really mixed reviews on the counter treatment. It's not that cheap and requires a lot of work to apply with mixed results.
I hate my crappy countertops in my new place, I looked at this but have decided instead to save up for new countertops.
I wish she'd kept the black counters, I love the contrast.
I think this is lovely! We used the Rustoleum countertop paint in our crappy kitchen (80's melamine white cabinets with HORRIFIC fake marble laminate countertops) and it has held up really well over the past 3 years. It was actually pretty easy to apply, but you definitely have to use the right kind of roller and painters tape. It is also extremely smelly. Like smelling 900 Sharpies at once smelly. We went with the dark gray color, and it really has been great considering that the kit was only around $70 and we didn't even use the whole can. I'm tempted to try the cabinet paint on our dinged up cabinets, since I've read all about it on Retro Renovation, but I think it's probably not worth the trouble. The countertops though were a really great choice though. It has made our kitchen bearable until we can someday afford to make some bigger changes. You know, when we win the lottery.
Oh, I couldn't agree more, AT.! This looks great, but the black countertops would have provided the perfect contrast. :(
I personally love the lighter counter tops. They add a warmth to the room that I don't think black would have.
I agree with Straight. And I think the options she used were great, especially for the person who doesn't have alot of money but is sick of the way the place looks.
Hey, it looks great!
I did the same in my kitchen, using that cabinet paint kit and I installed new hardware (just over $1 each for 6" bar hardware on eBay - those were $5+ at my local big box store), and the cabinet paint is holding up so well everyone thinks they're brand new cabinets. Sanding wasn't required but since my old finish was flaking off on a few doors I really had to sand it off before painting. In my case the cabinets switched from oak to white and the cabinet hardware is bronze since I was trying to match other finishes already in the house. Instead of the wallpaper, which I'd considered using, I went with actual beadboard because I was replacing the countertops (the wallpaper's a great solution if you're not replacing yours). Instead of the countertop painting, which I've used and it worked out very well in the laundry area, I opted to remove my kitchen counters and install IKEA butcher block until I can afford my dream of marble counters. I looked at a complete kitchen tearout and new cabinet install but it turned out that my current cabinets were in great condition, because they're solid wood they're better construction than the new cabinets I'd be getting, and I only needed to add inserts to two cabinets to give them the modern convenience I wanted. My kitchen reno so far and I still have to buy a new ceiling light, install new flooring, and additional molding is under $425.
In my last rental, I used the bead board wallpaper for a backsplash in my kitchen - including behind the sink. If you paint it with a semi-gloss it holds up great. I added the extra step of taping it off carefully with painter's tape and adding a bit of caulk to seal it well. Using the tape helped to get it in the groves without making a mess of the backsplash counter trim piece or the wallpaper. Received lots of complients on it and everyone thought it was real bead board.
Um. Wallpaper is never a backsplash. Ever.
I just can't believe this is the same kitchen! You did an AMAZING job! Thank you for sharing!!!!!
Um. Why the material prejudice? Vinyl wallpaper is probably easier to wipedown than many of the 'decorative' and yet horribly impractical backsplashes we see lately...
If wallpaper is not viable as a backsplash, you must be a pretty violent cook. I lived in a house whose kitchen had done just fine for 100 years with a wallpaper backsplash. (I know because I excavated four kids of wallpaper.) I eventually did put up ceramic tile, but that was mainly because I wanted a beautiful tile frieze over the stove.
I painted the cabinets in that kitchen. No Rustoleum, just Behr's latex, and it worked fine -- because kitchens tend to have grease, we used TSP on all the wood before painting. In my current kitchen, the existing paint was oil-based, so I stuck with that when I repainted, and I love it -- way more inconvenient than latex when you're putting it up but the finish is hard as a rock.
I looked at that Rustoleum kit at Home Depot and am under the impression you can simply buy the various components for less than half the cost of the kit.
Six days over three months?? Now that's a commitment.
The result is amazing, kudos!
Love Rustoleum! I used it to re-do the interior of my medicine cabinet. Looks new now. What a big difference even small changes can make.
Wonderful. I would probably change the knobs and pulls, but its otherwise perfect. Great job!

The next time you find yourself threatening to throw every last magnetic letter in the garbage if they aren't picked up off the kitchen floor in the next five seconds, try to keep in mind that those messy ABC magnets are shaping your child's early literacy skills. Preschoolers not only find the array of shapes and colors fascinating, but this versatile toy can jumpstart letter recognition, enhance memory processing and strengthen recall abilities.
Letter Play
An obvious choice, yes, but the toy was designed for letter play. Before starting any lapboard activity, spell out your child's name at the top. He may not know each letter yet, but by age 3, he should be able to recognize the combination of letters that make up his name.
When you first introduce letters, start with the most common ones that appear in the English language: a, i, n, p, s, t. These six letters can form dozens of simple words. Each time you put a magnetic letter on the board, identify an object, animal or person your child is familiar with, such as, "C is for cat," or "Daddy's name begins with J." As your preschooler's skills increase, combine letters to make words that are two, three and then four letters in length.
Focus initially on the lowercase letters since they comprise nearly 95 percent of written words. To increase the stakes, add an uppercase letter to the board then have your preschooler hunt for the matching lowercase letter.
Shapes, Shades and Sorting
Magnetic letters are the perfect tool for teaching your preschooler about basic shapes and primary colors as well as stimulating her sorting skills. You can have your child group all the green letters together, divide them by uppercase and lowercase, or search for vowels. Spell a word with alternating colors to create an easy pattern game. Remove one letter and ask your child to identify the missing color.
Silly Science
Turn this versatile toy into a practical science lesson by challenging your preschooler to find as many places as possible around the house where the letters might stick. Don't be afraid to get goofy--it is just as important for your kiddo to know that a magnet is attracted to the refrigerator but not the dog.
Letter of the Month
Randomly choose a letter at the beginning of each month and hang it on the fridge. You can design an array of activities that start with the letter, ranging from songs, books and crafts to cooking dinner, learning about an animal or looking for pictures in a magazine.
Magnets can be dangerous for tiny intestines, so if you have a toddler who still gnaws on everything in sight, hold off on introducing magnetic letters. When your preschooler is ready, buy large letters that are securely attached to a full-sized magnet.

Perhaps Washington Redskins defensive end Albert Haynesworth visited Lourdes between yesterday and today. Or perhaps he took one more look at Mike Shanahan's Thousand-Yard Stare O' Death and decided that, you know, the guy was serious after all.
In any case, Haynesworth's ouchy knee magically was cured this morning when he showed up and breezed through the conditioning test Shanahan was requiring that he pass before being allowed to practice. The standoff is over.
And, from Shanahan's standpoint, that's a very good thing. As silly as the whole affair might seem, he simply could not afford to back down to his rebellious defensive end. If he had, he'd have lost his new team before ever coaching it in a game.
It's obvious that Shanahan is trying to change the culture of the Resdkins' organization, and this was an important step in doing so. It's less obvious, but perhaps worth noting, that making himself look unreasonable and petty to some extent might have been calculated; by turning Haynesworth into a "victim," he maybe helped return him to the good graces of the Redskins' locker room, which frankly was fed up with his petulance.
Or maybe I'm giving Shanahan way too much credit. We do tend toward that where NFL coaches are concerned.

New Life Daily Devotion - November 1, 2011
Cheerfulness 101
A miserable heart means a miserable life;
a cheerful heart fills the day with a song.
Proverbs 15:15 MSG
Christ promises us lives of abundance and joy, but He does not force His joy upon us. We must claim His joy for ourselves, and when we do, Jesus, in turn, fills our spirits with His power and His love. Few things in life are more sad, or, for that matter, more absurd, than a grumpy Christian. How can we receive from Christ the joy that is rightfully ours? By giving Him what is rightfully His: our hearts and our souls.
When we earnestly commit ourselves to the Savior of mankind, when we place Jesus at the center of our lives and trust Him as our personal Savior, He will transform us, not just for today, but for all eternity. Then we, as God's children, can share Christ's joy and His message with a world that needs both.
Christ can put a spring in your step and a thrill in your heart. Optimism and cheerfulness are products of knowing Christ. - Billy Graham, 100 Days of Prayer
It is not fitting, when one is in God's service, to have a gloomy face or a chilling look. - St. Francis of Assisi
When I think of God, my heart is so full of joy that the notes leap and dance as they leave my pen; and since God has given me a cheerful heart, I serve him with a cheerful spirit. - Franz Joseph Haydn
We may run, walk, stumble, drive, or fly, but let us never lose sight of the reason for the journey, or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way. - Gloria Gaither
Today's Prayer
Dear Lord, You have given me so many reasons to be happy, and I want to be a cheerful Christian. Today and every day, I will do my best to share my happiness with my family and my friends. Amen

Q: Dom, Is UConn still on schedule to break ground on the basketball facility this spring? Has UConn raised the all the funds necessary for construction?
A: Chris, UConn has the funds it needs, by law, to begin construction and that is supposed to happen this spring, when the weather permits. I've heard it could be ready – if not totally completed – ready for some use as early as the fall of 2014, or about a year and a half, if things go on schedule. I doubt they have actually raised all the money needed to finish it just yet, but once they start construction, it means no one is worried, at that point, about getting the funds to complete it. So, at this point, it's all a 'go.'

Hoarding Disorder is now recognized by the American Psychiatric Association as a mental disorder. The DSM-V, which will be released in spring 2013, will contain the addition of Hoarding Disorder. This article is not meant to stand in for psychiatric or psychological advice. Rather, the goal of this article is to help you to know if you should seek medical attention for a possible hoarding disorder.
10 Signs That You Have a Hoarding Disorder
1. The "stuff" in your house is more than clutter. According to psychologist Gail Steketee of Boston University, "A lot of people have a catchall drawer or closet or even an entire room for extra stuff. It's when you let it take over two, three, or more rooms that you run into problems."
2. You are unable to throw away possessions. You experience severe anxiety when faced with throwing away possessions, even if friends and family consider them to be garbage.
3. Your possessions have taken over your living space. Maybe you have only a path through your living area available for walking through. Maybe your couch, table, or bed are covered in stuff, and there is just nowhere to put all of it. Perhaps you no longer can reach your bed, so you're stuck sleeping on the couch.
4. You can't use your appliances or plumbing fixtures anymore. The refrigerator, perhaps, is full of mold. The sink is full of dishes that you just cannot manage. The cat has made the bathroom sink its new litter box. Daily functions, like cooking and bathing, are almost impossible in your house, so you're relying on takeout and microwave meals.
5. You feel embarrassed by your possessions. You feel uncomfortable when other people see your possessions. You dread having friends or family enter your house. Unlike collectors, who are proud of their collections, you are ashamed of yours.
6. You're suspicious of other people touching your possessions. After visits from family or friends, you check the trash for discarded possessions of yours. Even if you find your possessions to be unmanageable, you feel anxious when others offer to help you to clean up. Sometimes you even check the trash when you've taken it out, just in case you threw something out that you consider to be a possession.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Jerome Simpson (left) is now the target of a massive drug investigation -- after police confiscated a mind-blowing 8.5 POUNDS of marijuana from his Kentucky home.
To put this in perspective -- casual pot smokers typically purchase by the gram ... and there are over 453 grams in a pound.
According to reports, cops searched Simpson's home after snagging a package that was shipped to his house -- containing 2.5 pounds of Mary Jane -- and then found another 6 pounds of weed, packaging materials, scales, and smoking devices.
A rep for the National Marijuana Initiative -- which coordinates marijuana enforcement operations around the country -- believes the house was set up as a "potential distribution network."
Bengals tackle Anthony Collins (right) was also present when police raided the home -- and he's being investigated as well. Police detained the two players during the search, but neither was arrested.
The NFL is full of so many criminals it might as well be called the "National FELON League"
Obviously for personal consumption. I buy 10 years worth at a time myself.
A Bengal in trouble with the law? GET OUT!! What a shock!
I am ashamed to be from cincinnati and have this horrible team be in this city. Maybe they would win if they got rid of all the druggies and convicts.
Legalize it.
Well that shows you what you guys know. Casual pot smokers(Not in cali where you can walk to the store to buy it) buy by the division of an ounce. What do you think a quarter bag is. Soooooo, 8.50 lbs = 544 quarter bags. Man thats alot of the smoke. That'd last a typical college campus about a weekend maybe a weekend and a half.
His career as a professional foot baller is over with.
I really wish the law would leave people and their weed alone. If it grows naturally in nature, it's all good. Go bother people who chmically cook up drugs!!!
It's a lot of smoke to have at one time for sure but your statement that casual smokers buy it by the gram is retarded. Only punks and idiots buy it by the gram. Sorry but most adults I know who smoke buy it by the QP to keep the cost down.
454 grams in a pound actually. When it comes to grams and furlongs, I know my stuff.
Gonna have to agree with David on this one. "Casual smokers purchase by the gram..." You're telling me no one on the TMZ staff smokes weed? I find that very very very hard to believe.
Not for personal use. Not to worry, they will play a Michael Vick dumb...knew nothing about it crap.

If the tap water here is so wonderful, why does the county spend so much on the bottled stuff?

For 30 years, ArtsQuest has contributed to the economic vitality and quality of life of its home community, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, helping to attract the businesses and the work force that make it the most economically healthy city in Pennsylvania by increasing access to diverse arts and by developing facilities for arts engagement. ArtsQuest is now offering to apply its collective experience to assist other communities, arts organizations and developers to build community capacity for sustainable economic growth by fostering a creative environment.
The tectonic shift in the United States economy in the last 25 years has left some communities in tatters and others in better health than ever. Much economic activity that can be commoditized has gone offshore leaving entire industries like textiles, televisions and appliances to foreign workers. How did one small community, home to a major American steel company, with 20% of its land mass taken up by a defunct steel plant jump to the head of the pack with the lowest crime rate of any city in Pennsylvania, the highest median home value, the fewest citizens dependent on government programs, 24% of its residents in the coveted 20-34 year old demographic (when the state is only 18%)?
A community's capacity to thrive in the 21st century depends on many variables but the most important variable is to be able to attract and retain the people who will create and sustain the businesses that will make the community economically successful. Without successful enterprises, communities will descend into dependency and stagnation. What can a community do to expand its capacity to attract and retain the key individuals and businesses for success?
ArtsQuest has been a partner with the City of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania for over 30 years in the city's quest to return to economic success after losing its primary employer and landmark industry, Bethlehem Steel in the 1990's. With the unusual dual mission of providing greater access to the arts for the community and enhancing economic development, ArtsQuest has pioneered urban revitalization techniques to attract creative individuals and businesses. ArtsQuest's leadership has:
With 30 years of success in a small city (pop. 75,000), and an experienced staff in urban arts presentation, ArtsQuest is now available to assist other communities to expand their capacity for economic growth. ArtsQuest's scope of services include:

You can see Michael's 1960s school collection,which arent on the internet.
When Michael was small & already in 2 years he was much more developed, than other children at this age. Joe & Katherine already had 4 boys and 2 girls, therefore it was rather tiresome - to have a 7th the child who was cleverer than all of us taken together.
In 3 years Michael was playing basketball and then he started to use a shoe for this purpose.When Michael was 4, he already could run so quickly, that had time to slip away from Joe before he could spank him. He simply crept under a bed, and there nobody could reach him.
This is Gary,Indiana where Michael Jackson spent his childhood.
1.-Michael's childhood home looked like this in the 1960s.
2.-House near Michael's childhood home in the 1960s.
3.-Thats dog Duke that Michael loved to play during lunch time in the school.
4.-Michael Jackson's favorite penny candy store to visit during the 1960s.
5.-Garnett Elementary School playground where Michael Jackson loved to play at lunch in the 1960s.
6.-Beckman Jr. High School in Gary,where the Jackson Five's second talent show held in 1967.
[1,2]This is Garnett Elementary school and the field where Michael loved to chase and play with rats,and also loved to play dangerous game again during lunch hour called "Cock the Rooster" in the 60s.
About Michael's childhood years during 1960s.
Father Joe decided to do a short show so that the group can sing at Christmas benefit.Michael was so little that he remembers that he saw Santa Claus there.After that they started singing at schools.
As you know Michael had become better known then(in 1660s Gary) and in 1964 Michael & the group firstly was hired to sing at a Gary night club.Then later they arrived to sing for a crowd of fans and sang "Star Spangled Banner" under blue Ohio sky,accompanied by the Lemon-Monroe High school Marching band.Then Jackie,Tito & Jermaine met Cincinnati Red's players to the game.They remained at the game & Michael & Marlon went back to the hotel to get some more sleep as they were very little.
Yep,speechless777. Here's smth for you! lol just click on it. :)
If you have any questions again,feel free to ask 'em.
He is so beautiful. Thank you for putting up with my questions lol
This outfit is just horrible lol
You've seen the picture on the left on the first one…So you know it's been posted many times on Tumblr as MJ…This is not him,just a fan as a kid!
I want to know what book this one is lol
Latoya,Marlon (in blue) & Michael (in orange) sitting with their cousins!
Don't confuse the little boy (sitting next to Marlon) with Jermaine that's not him!

Reuters Soccer Blog
World Soccer views and news
from Left field:
Things warming up nicely on the South African sporting front
The South African sporting public were a little underwhelmed by the early stages of the Confederations Cup and the British and Irish Lions tour but the last few days has seen a major turnaround and there is now something in the air.
Relatively high ticket prices combined with the Sprinboks' decision to keep their players out of their Super 14 teams combined to ensure the early provincial games were played against a backdrop of empty seats.
Now, however, with the first test looming on Saturday, a ticket for King's Park is like gold dust. The few thousand Lions fans who followed the team round the country over the first three weeks have been joined by a massive influx for the tests.
Estimates are that more than 30,000 will arrive for some part of the tour and they were out in force in Durban this week. Balmy seaside temperatures, good cheap food and, vitally, even cheaper beer, makes the coastal resort a dream destination for rugby tourists.
In defence of Giuseppe Rossi
American soccer fans aren't noted for their nastiness but the reaction to Giuseppe Rossi, New Jersey native, scoring twice for Italy against the U.S in their 3-1 Confederations Cup defeat on Monday has been surprisingly vitriolic.
What has upset U.S fans is that Rossi was born and bred in the U.S. but chose to play for another country and then — to add insult to injury — celebrated when he scored twice against his country of birth.
Mind how you go, sir — a lesson with the South African police
FIFA president Sepp Blatter, World Cup organiser Danny Jordaan and just about everyone else involved in the 2010 finals have been playing down the risk of violence and crime in South Africa and in hundreds of reports over the last five years I have always been prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt.
That was until last night when I was effectively "mugged" by two uniformed police officers who demanded "pounds or dollars" before they would let me go on my way. In the end I handed over 200 rand (about 15 pounds) — and they showed their "gratitude" in the most astonishing way.
Time to take minnows off the international menu
Now that the dust has settled on the Ronaldo story (at least until he actually signs) I wanted to go back to something that bothered me about last week's on-field action.
Former England striker Jimmy Greaves summed it up quite well at half-time during England's 6-0 thrashing of Andorra in a World Cup qualifier.
It appears logical to presuppose that this is Marcelo Bielsa…
Chile 's 4-0 win over Bolivia in their World Cup qualifier on Wednesday has left them on a brink for only their second World Cup appearance since 1982.
Their progress through the tortuous South American qualifying campaign – which has included a memorable home win over Argentina — has been almost exclusively credited to the work one of the world's most reclusive and enigmatic coaches Marcelo Bielsa.
World Cup is golden opportunity for Africa — if it succeeds
The countdown has begun for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, an event, now only a year away, that could change perceptions about the whole continent and show the globe a festival of sport that reverses obstinate stereotypes of a region in constant crisis and violence.
Africans are deeply frustrated by the tendency of foreigners, including investors, to see Africa almost as one country instead of more than 50 extremely diverse nations. Meltdown in Zimbabwe can impact on investors' perceptions of countries thousands of miles away on the other side of the continent. By the same token, a successful World Cup will not only change the way people see Africa but also encourage future mega events and the huge investment that they can bring.
La Volpe opens his mouth and puts his foot in it
Mexico's recent tribulations — four coaches in the last three years, two defeats to Honduras in five months, an even more humiliating loss in Jamaica — have left many supporters with a certain nostalgia for former coach Ricardo La Volpe.
Gruff and outspoken, La Volpe brought almost unprecedented stability between 2002 and 2006 as he actually completed the four-year cycle between World Cups. He made Mexico one of the world's most tactically versatile teams, boldly drafted in numerous young players and enjoyed competitive wins over both Brazil and Argentina.
Don't mention the draw!
This week's two World Cup qualifiers between Spain and Turkey have prompted the Spanish media to look back at a dramatic moment in the history of the two nations' soccer teams.
It came at the end of the last of three matches the pair played in early 1954 to decide which would qualify for the World Cup in Switzerland later that year.
Lippi and Capello get grief for two very different reasons
Italy coach Marcello Lippi probably expected to be grilled for again overlooking Antonio Cassano, but England counterpart Fabio Capello may not have foreseen the furore surrounding him actually picking a player.
Tottenham Hotspur's Ledley King has a chronic knee problem which prevents him training yet Capello still deemed the centre back good enough for an England squad recall for the friendly with Slovakia and World Cup qualifier with Ukraine.
from Africa News blog:
Togo need a miracle
It is hard to fathom what the motivation for Jean Thissen's decision would be. He takes on the job as national team coach of Togo just over two weeks before the resumption of Africa's World Cup qualifiers and with the very real prospect of having to do without his best player.
Thissen is the third new coach to take over at the helm of a side who are still in the World Cup race and set out at the end of this month on the final leg of the fight for one of the five berths for the 2010 World Cup finals in South Africa.

motherfuckingnazgul replied to your post: I don't like the villain of this piece-at all,…
lector you're making me want to write stories about gods stop that
Now why would I do a silly thing like that.
Wanna know some fun details about this verse? The only way to kill something divine is to kill every worshiper it has. And you can check if you got everyone, because as long as a god lives, their alters will burn in a magic user's sight. The alters are a part of the god, and the god is part of the alters.
It makes genocide a frighteningly precise art. There are a half-dozen deities (at minimum, there may be more, who are so well hidden even their existence is a secret) who only have one alter in the entire world, the location known only to the handful of worshipers that remain, because they barely survived the attempt to kill them ages past, and are still hunted to this day.

Pretty boring, worst than last year. But YG Family killed it. As usual. Watch HD performance on Mnet's channel. If anyone has the link to full performance of Ailee or Wang Lee Hom, send it to me
Just read your post and I'm glad I didn't watch it. Mama's hasn't been good to me since '08 (even though I didn't get into Kpop till '09 I saw the award show from '08). YG killed it….like always. Gain looked hot but her performance could've been better though. I really don't like MAMA's voting system. If u ain't there u don't get the award, even if u won. And like u said it's rigged. Seriously though why don't some Korean music award shows never have their sound system together?!!!
YES, I could've swore 2ne1 was the best group to represent for global females not Kara, they're just popular in Japan! And yea, however last year, Big Bang got an award and they weren't even there…the system is just stupid.
Really? That's weird that got the award even though they weren't there. This is why I hate award shows. I was looking at some of the winners and I was like 0_o. Especially with Kara and 2NE1. Like u said Kara = Japan. 2NE1 has a way bigger fan base globally than Kara. smh.

What kind of clothes should skinny girls wear?
So im kinda skinny and i was thinking skinny jeans cause everyone else that is skinny wears that but i realized i look kinda.. weird? And my brother said so too. So i realized clothes other super skinny people wear isnt really right for me cause it just makes them look like skinnier... if they like that then thats great but when i try that i look bad. So any suggestions on a style for jeans and shirts or something?
- Asked by leapyear39, An Eco Chick, Girl, 18-21, Seattle
Wear distressed skinny jeans or jeans with embroidered pockets. Make sure the pockets aren't too low or they'll make your bum look droopy. Also try ruffled or lacy shirts with lower collars and flare dresses.
- Response by titania15, A Pop Culture Queen, Girl, 18-21, Salt Lake City
i have the same problem! so i usually try and wear slim boot jeans or even a loose skinny. i pair it up with a cute belt and a button up/down shirt, it looks super cute. or if you're going for a summer look, try wearing a romper aka a onsie. they are really in right now and look super cute in the summer. colourful crop tops are also another cute choice for thinner girls like yourself, they tend to make you look bigger, but not like a bad bigger. hope i helped!
- Response by morgannaudrina11, A Social Butterfly, Girl, 18-21, Vancouver
sometimes i looser cute top helps create more curves
- Response by dancergrl94, A Do-Good Girl, Girl, 18-21
Straight legged bootbutt jeans are cut especially from american eagle because they make your legs look nice and your butt look better. STRAIGHT LEGGED OR BOOTCUT
- Response by kafilah, A Trendsetter, Girl, 17

careers and energetic personalities provide interesting fare to be retold and once again brought
to light. Although an entire volume would be required to accommodate an all-inclusive list,
there is a single penman whose contributions to the American system of writing were of such
significance that he must be mentioned. His name was Austin Norman Palmer.

Khoi Women Dancing
These depictions of Khoi women are from a set of 27 drawings on 15 sheets that was discovered in the National Library of South Africa in 1986. The drawings are important for presenting the earliest realistic depictions of the Khoikhoi, the original inhabitants of the Western Cape. In these drawings, the artist has caught the movement of the bodies, clothing, and beads. The annotation, in Dutch, refers to "five dancing Hottentot women," the latter being the historic name given to the Khoikhoi at the time of white settlement, and now ...
Khoi Dancers and Musical Instruments
This series of sketches is from a set of 27 drawings on 15 sheets that was discovered in the National Library of South Africa in 1986. The drawings are important for presenting the earliest realistic depictions of the Khoikhoi, the original inhabitants of the Western Cape. The sketches show Khoi activities, including facial painting, drumming, and dancing. The annotations, in Dutch, provide details of the designs used in face painting and of the different drums played by men and women. The right side of the sheet is devoted to dancing ...
Peasants Dancing, Bosnia, Austro-Hungary
This photochrome print is part of "Views of the Austro-Hungarian Empire," a selection of photographs of late-19th-century tourist sites in Eastern and Central Europe (formerly the Austro-Hungarian Empire) in the catalog of the Detroit Publishing Company. Bosnia was conquered by the Ottoman Turks in 1463. Following the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–78, the Congress of Berlin (1878) gave Austria-Hungary a mandate to occupy and govern Bosnia and Herzegovina, which remained under nominal Ottoman sovereignty until 1908. Shown here are peasants in traditional dress, performing a dance (identified on the print ...
The Tamunangue Folk Dance
This photograph from Venezuela shows a group of men and women dancing the tamunangue, a folk dance that is performed as part of the festival of San Antonio de Padua, held on June 13 every year, in the state of Lara. The word tamunangue is derived from the name of the drum used to give the dance its characteristic beat, known as the tamunango. The photograph is from the collection of the Columbus Memorial Library of the Organization of American States (OAS), which includes 45,000 photographs illustrative of life ...
White Springs School 5th Graders Dancing
This photograph of children dancing is from the 1959 Florida Folk Festival. The festival first took place in 1953, on the grounds of the Stephen Foster Memorial along the banks of the Suwanee River in White Springs. The Suwannee formed the boundary between the Timucuans and the Apalachees, and the area was also considered special by the Seminole and Miccosukee peoples. The springs were considered by several indigenous American peoples to have healing powers. Settlers who began arriving in the area in the 1830s also advocated taking the waters, and ...
La Coca, a Jarabe Dancer
This 1904 photograph of a female dancer in Mexico is from the Frank and Frances Carpenter Collection at the Library of Congress. Frank G. Carpenter (1855–1924) was an American writer of books on travel and world geography, whose works helped to popularize cultural anthropology and geography in the United States in the early years of the 20th century. Consisting of photographs taken and gathered by Carpenter and his daughter Frances (1890–1972) to illustrate his writings, the collection includes an estimated 16,800 photographs and 7,000 glass and ...

Arab Dancing Girls, Algiers, Algeria
This photochrome print of women dancing on the terrace of a home in Algiers is part of "Views of People and Sites in Algeria" from the catalog of the Detroit Publishing Company (1905). The 1911 edition of Baedeker's The Mediterranean, seaports and searoutes: Handbook for Travellers described the old city of Algiers as presenting "a highly attractive picture of Oriental life, though partly inhabited by Maltese and Spaniards as well as by Mohammedans of various races and creeds." Arabs were the dominant group in the population, then as now ...

The Uganda Literary and Scientific Society was established at Entebbe, Uganda Protectorate, in 1923.

I've recently found myself included in a group of other food loving individuals who are excited to try new, fun, adventurous restaurants in the city. Some are places one person has been to and wants others to try or other suggestions are new for the entire group. And the group is constantly changing or being added on to and the fun is that there is really no group and no rules, its just loose and whoever can show up wherever and whenever the night and location is decided upon does.
The recent ones that I've been able to join have included a Korean BBQ joint that specializes in duck (and more specifically the rice that is cooked in the duck fat at the end of the meal…and if you're curious it was all delicious and amazing) and Honduran food which included some pupusas, and plantain type dishes with meat and sour cream and other unhealthy substances.
This past dinner we decided to head to Little Tokyo (one of my most favorite areas of Los Angeles) and check out a Japanese curry spot called Fat Spoon. I, for one, had not tried a Japanese curry place before, but Japanese being one of my favorite cuisines, I was pretty excited about this meal.
(Side note: Not entirely sure why their mascot is a Rabbit, but it showed up quite a bit in the decor of their restaurant)
I had done my research prior to arriving (of course) and had an idea of what to order, but we also asked the waiter what their specialties were that we should try. He suggested starting with sweet potato fries that were cooked and/or glazed in a ponzu sauce as well as a House salad that had a soy based vinaigrette. Unfortunately my cell phone ate the photo of the sweet potato fries, so you'll just have to trust that they were cute and yummy.
The sweet potato fries were sticky and sweet and delicious, and the salad was simple, yet really tasty and nice to have something green and refreshing on a very hot October LA evening.
We then jumped into our first entree which may be my new favorite dish, one in which I'll definitely go back for. Since I have not frequented any other Japanese curry houses, I am not sure if pasta dishes are served on all menus, but there were many pasta dishes offered on this menu. As my other favorite food besides Japanese is Pasta, it only seems right that mixing the two together would be amazing. And it was. We ordered the Tarako, which is Salted cod roe, cream, dried seaweed & chopped green onion. (I can only imagine my mother's face now reading this "The things you eat, I can't even imagine putting in my mouth!") I can't even put into words the deliciousness of this dish, but when the waiter tried to take the bowl away with a few bites of pasta left, I quickly grabbed it out of his hands to grab the last bits up with my chopsticks!
Our final dish was one of the Japanese curry dishes. The one our waiter said was his favorite that we decided to try was the Loco Moco which was hamburg meat with brown rice, doused in curry sauce topped with a fried egg. (I'm normally a big fan of anything topped with a fried egg) This dish was good, not great, so I would definitely try another item off the curry section next time I went back.
Whether or not I'm a fan of the Japanese curry itself, I will most definitely head back to try more of their pasta and side items. It's also important to note that Monday nights are all night happy hour, so all beers and wines are only $3!
And because I was so fascinated by the rabbit mascot, here's the backend of the rabbit on my way out!
So I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm constantly going to be behind on my blog posts and will just post when I find time and energy and have a meal worth sharing! I've had a few lately, but one of them was on a recent work trip to NYC (well not that recent anymore, but we'll go with it!)
Luckily, most of the work crew I travel with is into food as much as me so we can explore great restaurants wherever we are. While in NYC, we all were excited to check out one of Momofuku's restaurants. We would have taken any of them, but we ended up getting a table at the Ssam bar.
Since this was a while ago, my memory is a little fuzzy on some specific details. We all started off our meal with a specialty cocktail of course. And although I can't remember all that was in my drink I do remember that it had mango and sriracha and I coudln't pass up trying a cocktail with sriracha in it. It definitely had quite a kick and don't think I could have had more than one, but a fun drink to try!
Although there are tons of delicious dishes there which we certainly ordered and devoured, I was most excited about their Steamed Pork Belly Bun and it definitely did not dissapoint!
We then ordered a plethora of other dishes we all shared ranging from a fantastic pickle plate to a meaty pork shoulder dish and more.
After our meal, we of course had to hop across the street to hit up Momofuku's Milk Bar (their dessert shop) which I HIGHLY recommend. They have amazing cookies, pies, etc, but I always tend to go for their seasonal soft serve, which this time was Blueberry Miso and was a perfect end to the evening! I can't wait for my next New York trip to hit up the Momofuku Noodle Bar!
Braised pork belly BLTA from Hatfield owner's new bakery & cafe The Sycamore Kitchen
I have been very delayed in any of my blog writing lately, so apologies to my loyal readers (I'm talking to you mom)! I have a few in the backlog that I will get to in the next week or so (I promise), but I have just returned from Santa Fe, New Mexico on a lovely Girls Trip weekend with some college friends and wanted to share my food experiences there first!
Santa Fe is known for their Mexican or New Mexican food which we certainly did PLENTY of, trust me. We even had one of the best burgers of my life from a roadside stand called "Sugars". I had their cheeseburger with grilled onions and green chile sauce! Complete with the largest Root Beer float I've ever seen. I'll be daydreaming about that burger for a while.
After that filling lunch, we weren't sure how hungry we'd be for our 7:15pm dinner reservations at Coyote Cafe, but I for one can always make room for delicious food. Coyote Cafe isn't the typical New Mexican fare, but more like Southwestern fine dining. Since it was close to 100 degrees out all day, we decided to start off with a nice bottle of Rose. Not something I normally go for, but it was nice and refreshing after sweltering all day.
Since we were in fact not too starving at this point, the four of us agreed upon each ordering some salads and starters to share and then split an entree and some sides. It was definitely one of the smarter decisions we made all weekend!
The salads we started with were mostly standard, except for the Caesar Salad, which was almost like a sushi roll caesar. Very cool presentation!
Another one of the ladies ordered a Foie Gras, Ahi Tuna, Polenta Tower which was insanely good and we all split a "Surf and Turf" of tartare which included beef tartare with a quail egg and tuna tatare. It was a very different presentation, complete with mini pancakes! I was thrown off by the pancakes for a minute, but once you dolled it up with all the appropriate fixings, it was pretty fantastic!
After all that, we finally got our main entree of White Sea Bass and a side of grilled asparagus and truffled mac and cheese with bacon. Thank god we ended up splitting everything and only getting the one entree with sides to share since we were all pretty full by then.
Even though we were pretty stuffed, we decided to split a little dessert to each have a taste. There was a strawberry shortcake type dish that was served with basil ice cream that looked refreshing and tasty so we went with that and it was definitely a good choice. Not too rich or filling, and the basil ice cream was out of this world. Wish I could have a scoop of that right now!
It was a great meal, topped off with great company!
