Okay. It took me a while but it's time to let go of summer and welcome fall.
I'm always struggling this thime of year, simply because I live for the long, light days of spring and summer. When the evening starts to fall earlier and earlier I can't help feeling a bit down. But at the same time I love to shift my wardrobe and interior into fall.
And boy, there is so much good stuff going on this fall when it comes to home trends. I love to see that more budget chains are doing a great job with new collections that are well-matched with more expensive and trendsetting brands. When you mix and match lower priced items with more expensive classic eyecatchers you can create your own affordable style.
Speaking of a lovely new collection (that's also well priced), meet the 101 Woon-collectie at Leen Bakker from 101 Woonideeën.
These images are an instant mood changer and made me embrace fall to the fullest. I mean, what's not to love about it?
You can find the collection online at Leen Bakker and in stores.
I wasn't sure how to name this post since it's been a very long time ago that I showed up here. A lot of things happened the last few months, good and bad and it's been a crazy ride.
My love and passion for interiors and home styling did not change for one single moment -you guys know me a little bit by now- but I just couldn't find the energy to write a post.
I didn't even took a single picture around the house, shame on me!
But I'm here now after a very relaxing holiday and I'm slowly starting over again.
So tell me, how was your holiday?
It's been a while since I posted an update of our bedroom.
Everything is pretty much the same, ofcourse I did move a few things around (you know me).
I still love our black walls, but after 4,5 years they need some repairing here and there.
Black is a very calming and cozy 'colour' for your bedroom. The only downside is that it stains very easily.
After browsing some of my favourite blogs a while ago I saw that the lovely Nina from Stylizimo painted her black walls with fresh teal.
It's actually the same colour that we have in our living room but when I saw this, my heart made a litte jump. I'm excited to try a fresh, light new colour now!
Do you like it?
No no, I'm not actually in bed with Fred. I found this super cute and funny (what's in a name?) australian brand online and it's so different than all the famous brands out there, très refreshing.
The colours, the prints, and even the names, I love it!
I'm especially fond of the paper, scissors, ROCK sheets and the cross my heart quilt. And pssst…. they ship internationally, yay!
So I hope Fred will come and sleep over soon :-)
Whoa. I'm in love. How on earth could I've missed this beautiful brand House of Rym?
I want to have every.single.product.pretty.please. It just has 'Marline' written all over it.
So I'm saving up for some of these beauties. Over and out.
So yeah, I changed some things up in our girls room. Story of my life.
The cute wallstickers made place for these lovely prints. They're actually postcards but I like them as walldecorations as well!
We've also been changing some things in our kitchen and I'm so excited about it. It's not finished yet but I'll show you the results when it's done.
Have a lovely day!
Easter is far behind us (time flies!) but this year the traditional easter brunch was at our place. I went completely overboard with the tablesetting in sweet pastels. So overboard that I didn't take a single picture.
I did capture these little vases that I made with old jars (thank you baby girl) and some rope. Really simple, just wrap the rope tight around the vase, make sure you wrap a little over the beginning and the end of the rope and it won't go anywhere.
This is also really fun to use when you're hosting a summer barbeque or a high tea.
Do you like the results?
Our entry is a quite small, straight space. I'd like to have it functional but also welcoming without too much decoration involved.
With a super handy but quite large Bugaboo our entry looked way too small.
So I sold our cabinet and I love how much space we've gotten in return.
But ofcourse I can't leave things completely empty. First I like to start with a functional and cute coat rack. I love this house shaped rack from Tas-Ka.
How is your entry decorated?
Have a great weekend!
With spring in full swing I bet a new (or vintage) carpet probably isn't what comes to your mind right now. But lately I've been very very obsessed with these beauties. Your great grandfather would approve!
I would love to have one in our bedroom (it would match perfectly with our black walls and white floors). It's a bit boho I guess. Pair it with a few cactuses in different sized jars et voila, a new look is born.
Ps. This Alexander Wang bag is also very welcome.
Do you like these old carpets or do you own one?
Spring always feels like a clean slate. It's a time clear your mind, start your spring cleaning (anyone else started yet?) and for the not so lucky people -like me- battle that nasty hayfever.
Speaking of Hay, a brand we probably all love, they do such a great job with these tray tables. Simplicity at it's best!
With their versatile and sleek look they fit in every interior. Including mine.
I would accessorize them with some romantic candlesticks in copper, a few pretty books and -ofcourse- spring flowers.
Anyone else excited?

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- If any team can adapt to American and its Princeton-style offense, it might be No. 2 seed Wisconsin.
The Badgers (26-7) have been prepping for the 15th-seeded Eagles (20-12) and their methodical scheme since the brackets were announced on Sunday. They'll face off in an NCAA tournament game Thursday in Milwaukee, barely a 90-minute drive from Wisconsin's home in Madison.
The talent difference between the Big Ten powers and Patriot League champion figures to be wide. Jump-shooting big man Frank Kaminsky (13.6 points) should be a challenge for American center Tony Wroblicky, the Patriot League defensive player of the year.
The Eagles hope their patient offense might be an equalizer against the disciplined Badgers.

The 3 Must-Have Vinegars
- l
- Lila Feb 15, 2006 04:26 PM
Ok, I live in NYC and have a *tiny* kitchen. I'm always trying to pare down my condiments, but then keep coming across recipes that use very specific kinds of vinegar. I honestly end up avoiding the recipe as not to have to buy another bottle that will sit unused after one recipe.
Right now I have a white balsamic vinegar which I love for salad dressings and a chinese rice wine vinegar I use all the time in Asian marinades and dressings. Are there any other vinegars that have good multi-purpose use? I'm not a huge of regular balsamic, fyi. I've been curious about wine and cider vinegars, but the prices seem to range so much, and I have so little knowledge, I've never bought one.
Good old Heinz cider vinegar I find is a pantry must have staple. Cheap white vinegar is useful for more than cooking and is a good cleaning agent. I buy the "O" brands of wine vinegars, sherry, zin or cab and champange at TJ Maxx. They are in very slender bottles that do not take up much room.
You need the different vinegars for different purposes. The three most basic and called for in recipes:
1. Cider vinegar (Bragg unfiltered organic apple cider vinegar is my preferred brand) -- is usually used in baking and savory preparations where a fruitier note is required. I also like in salad dressings and all sorts of other preparations.
2. Red wine vinegar (Spectrum Naturals garners the foodie raves) -- is usually used in salad dressings and marinades for a winey note. But I often prefer fresh citrus juice instead (or in addition).
3. White vinegar -- if you want to do any kind of pickling, it is essential. Also irreplaceable for all sorts of household tasks.
Balsamic vinegar is something I once used with abandon and now hardly use. (I rather use vincotto.)
Rice vinegar is nice to have, but again not essential unless you are cooking Asian cuisine. And Asian cuisines have myriad other vinegars, too....
re: Karl S
What is vincotto? I get that it means "cooked wine", but what is it exactly and how is it used?
I personally LOVE champagne vinegar, but if I had to choose only one other to have it would be red wine vinegar. It is used in alot of recipes, and has a neutral enough flavor that you can sub it in when a recipe calls for something obscure (you won't get the flavor, but you'll get the acid). My other two must-haves are the ones you currently have stashed.
re: Das Ubergeek
same here--rice, white, and cider. i'm surprised to see that many posters consider red wine vinegar a must-have, just because i haven't used it in years--somehow never had a recipe that calls for it!
I always keep balsamic, red wine and apple cider vinegars.
Apple cider is the all time best vinegar if you only had one vinegar it should be this. There have been books written strictly about apple cider vinegar - it's household and medicianal uses in addition to food uses.
You can use it for any vinagrette recipe, you can substitute it for lemon juice in a recipe - even a dessert recipe, you can use it as an astringent or disinfectatant or household cleaner.
Never be without a bottle of apple cider vinegar.
In old American kitchens it was the only vinegar you would have found.
re: Niki Rothman
Yes, those three are my standards, though my boyfriend keeps rice and doesn't use cider. I also use white for pickling, but that means I don't need it most of the year.
re: curiousbaker
I agree with you. After I posted I realized I would also really want rice vinegar as a fourth. For Asian cooking and when you want the mildest vinegar - it's #1.
re: Niki Rothman
When I was young, cider vinegar was what we thought of as "vinegar". Maybe because we're in an apple-producing region, maybe because it was the vinegar of Appalachian foodways.
At some point in the 1970s, everyone seemed to switch to red wine vinegar as the default. I was startled to learn that in Eat Your Books indexing, red and white wine vinegars are "store cupboard ingredients", i.e. not listed unless a cup or more is used, while cider vinegar is special/specific enough that it's always listed when called for, even in amounts as small as a spoonful.
I have balsamic (for salad dressing, and oddly enough a jerk chicken recipe I make frequently, and many other uses), rice wine vinegar (I do lots of Asian cooking), and red wine, plus either cider vinegar or white. I tried sherry vinegar, because my brother raves about it, but I must have bought the wrong brand, because I didn't see what the fuss was about. And at the price, I guess I wasn't willing to experiment (altho I would take advice if anyone offered it, and also on brands of champagne vinegar, which I have never tried).
re: Anne H
Champagne vinegar can be really hit or miss...I LOVE "Vilux." It's French, and sometimes hard to find, but if you can, it's fabulous and not expensive.
I'm not a big fan of regular balsamic either. Usually end up reducing it on the stovetop for more syrupy applications as an accent. I guess I was just overdosed on it for daily use.
the 3 I couldn't do without are red wine, apple cider (like Karl S., Bragg with the goopy mother on the bottom), and white (a neutral base with potential for herbal and fruit infusions).
My list would be:
Red wine vinegar aged not diluted
Balsamic vinegar your white balsamic sounds yummy.
Sherry wine vinegar
Those are the three I use all the time.
I couldn't live with only 3 vinegars.
I find I use sherry the most (almost every night for salad dressings). It's strong, very tasty, and a little goes a long way. I have Vinagre de Jerez Reserva "muy vieja". I got it at the Spanish Table in Berkeley.
I also need red wine vinegar and every once in a while, white wine vinegar especially for poulet au vinaigre, one of my favorite dishes.
I also have balsamic - a not really pricy kind but it's good. Don't know the brand as I put it in a "decorative" bottle. Used it tonight with chopped green onions and evoo and a sprinkle of Greek oregano (the kind that comes dried in branches - I'm a sucker for those) over some steamed broccolini I got in my last organic veggie box.
Lastly, I need rice wine vinegar. I had a bottle of lovely organic cider vinegar but strange sediments built up in the bottle after it'd sat in the cabinet for too long, and I ended up throwing it out.
re: oakjoan
I'm with Oakjoan-
I use Sherry vin (vilux), Red wine (Colivata), Rice Wine ("Marakata" I think- just bought a new one).
I know I can't go a month without using Cider vinegar for dressings, Balsamic for a reduction or a braise, or white for cleaning, but I can hardly go a day withour using red wine, rice, or sherry vin.
I guess if I HAD to have just 3- I'd drop the Red and use more Sherry, I'd sub Champagne for white & cider, and use Rice Wine as a sub for cider in some fuit salads, dressings & braises.
I make sushi rice for dinner 3 times a week (hey I'm practicing!) and I just love rice wine vinegar in fruit/summer salsas- I kow it's just a "basic/boring" Vin, but that's what I use if for.
BTW- I could give up most other Vins as Long As I have access to all of the varius citruses- I use fruit juices in just about everything- Orange, blood orange, caracara, lime, keylime, lemon, meyer lemon, need I go on?
And as long as I seem incapapble of just shutting up (hahaha) I just wnat to throw out one more- I grabbed a small bottle of Alessi White balsamic with fig while cooking for my folks the other weekend- I used it in EVERY course of the meal. Then I finished to bottle and I can't find it locally :(
re: oakjoan
I have to agree about the Sherry. Took me years to buy it b/c I figured, when will i use it besides one or two recipes? Ha, wrong! It gives an added and excellent dimesion to my tomato sauce and I use it for almost all pasta dishes.
I also love and use daily Modenacetti silver balsamic. It's about $7 and tastes like this awesome and way pricey stuff someone brought me from Italy once. A bargain, I tell you. It's slightly sweet, makes all salads phenomenal, and is always added to my turkey meatloaf and burgers.
I'd agree w/the Rice Wine. I guess I should branch out and give white balsamic or cider a go, since there seem to be many 'hounds using both. What am I missing out on!?
I have the same problem - tiny NY kitchen - and I like to have champagne vinegar, sherry vinegar, regular white vinegar, rice vinegar and a red vinegar. I'm sure there's a little bottle of balsamic hiding in there somewhere, but I never use it. There's also a raspberry wine vinegar taking up space - bought by accident and should just give it away. Lastly, I have a lovely bottle of Swiss herb (herbs not described on bottle) that someone gave me from Zabars, that is sitting on the counter b/c I can't find room for it. It is tasty though. I can't stand apple cider vinegar - just don't like the taste.
re: MMRuth
i can't stand apple cider vinegar either. my b/f bought some to stock his pantry 8 years ago and it's still in there.
my go-to is brown rice vinegar, followed by citrus juice. occasional splashes of red wine vinegar and then white vinegar too.
don't own and HATE balsamic.
re: hotoynoodle
Just curious, there seems to be a few people that do not like balsamic. Is it like cilantro, where the flavor just offends, or is it some sort of an anti-balsamic bend since it has been popularised? Or is is just poor mass-marketed balsamic? I'd challenge anyone to go to a balsamic tasting and not like the good stuff.
For me, rice wine, balsamic, red wine, white wine, apple cider, straight vinegar. If I had to pare down to three, it would be balsamic, red wine, and white wine.
re: rudeboy
i know certain people have a peculiar chemical reaction to cilantro and for them it tastes like soap, so, no, this is not that for me.
first, the cheap stuff became a ubiquitous crutch for lame chefs and thus difficult to escape in many mid-priced restaurants.
second, i mostly use vinegar as an acid, so don't want it to present an obtrusive flavor.
third, i don't like what the color does in a dressing over vegetables or greens.
lastly, for the love pf pete, please don't ruin perfect, in-season strawberries with it.
re: hotoynoodle
Interesting. I find all of them have their place -- well, save for cheapo balsamic. It certainly doesn't have to be $100/bottle, but quality is key for balsamic. I actually really love it with soy sauce and olive oil for vinaigrette.
I like a dash of apple cider vinegar, too, for making blue cheese dressing, or German-style cuke salad.
Red wine vinegar for Greek dressing.
Rice wine vinegar for Asian marinades and sauces.
Malt vinegar for fries & fried fish.
I guess I love vinegar. Which is funny, b/c as a kid I loathed it, and grew up with salad dressings made with citrus.
My favorites are champagne or cognac for a lighter flavor. Cider is distinctive and can be terrific but it isn't in a top three. Sherry or high quality red wine are more intersting than most crummy balsalmic.
So many vinegars, so little shelf space! Instead, they surround my stove.
If I were limited to only three, it would have to be: (1) Fibonacci white (2) a classic red wine vinegar (3) Villa Manodori Balsamico, which is thicker and sweeter than a true balsamic - and is excellent on grilled bitter chicories, like radicchio, endive, escarole, etc. Amazing combination.
re: pumpkinspice
I make my own white wine vinegars, and my white has a lot of the same characteristics as a good Champagne vinegar. (Sometimes a little Champagne actually makes it way to the crock.) it makes a very crisp vinaigrette done about 3:1 with peanut oil and a little Maille Dijon, brightened even more by use of grey salt on the salt. It is sort of a one trick pony, but I think it is a nice trick. I like it on avocado and tomato wedges with thinly sliced sweet onions.
re: tim irvine
Thank you! I will give it a try. I bought some from Costco not too long ago but I had no clue what to do with it!
My must have three are red wine vinegar, rice wine vinegar and white vinegar. I love all vinegars with the exception of balsamic but these are the three I use on a regular basis.
I'd choose white, apple cider, and balsamic. Simply because I can make red/white wine vinegars and other fruit vinegars. But then, I have the luxury of a 1100 sq ft apartment. Sometimes, I'll purchase a special vinegar, and unless I'm about to make the same recipe again soon, will give away/share the rest of the bottle with someone else.
ETA, white vinegar because of it's additional non-culinary uses. such as descaling of the coffee maker, and fabric softener for towels.
1. Balsamic
2. Rice wine
3. Apple cider
I'd add basic inexpensive white vinegar too. I buy it in gallon jugs and use for cleaning. A dollop in your rinse water makes your wine glasses sparkle.
I have a zillion vinegars but the ones I go to on the regular are red wine, rice and champagne. It's been some time since I've enjoyed balsamic vinegar, for whatever reason. I much prefer the red wine.
There is a Pinot Grigio from Lucini's that cost me about 8 bucks which I love, too. But that's a "special" vinegar.
I always have a gallon jug each of white and apple cider, so I guess I use those the most. Though the white gets used for cleaning, too.
Third place would probably be red wine or balsamic. I can sip a good balsamic by the spoonful. There are about 10 kinds of vinegar in my pantry, though.
re: Gastronomos
One I always have going is a jar of hot pepper vinegar. It's hard to find in the store north of South Carolina. As I use it up, I keep adding whatever vinegar is handy. I prefer it to any pepper sauce for beans, soups, collards, etc.
I have a hard time keeping it to 3.
I typically keep:
red wine (must have)
balsamic (not necessary if you don't like)
white (you can get away with white or cider if you want)
rice (not necessary if you never make Asian food at home)
Sometimes I also have:
white wine
Right now I also have 1-2 fancy flavored ones that were given as gifts. You can definitely make lots of substitutions.
As for brands/prices etc. the balsamic is the only one I feel is necessary to use something higher quality.
As with too many other thing l collect l have a crapload of vinegars. If forced to limit to three, l could do. Here goes :
Martin Pouret white vinegar- Only French Orleans method still produced where grapes are made into wine then to vinegar just before bottling.
Corti's homemade red wine vinegar- Been buying for many years, nothing l have ever had or even made compares.
High level Balsamic- Not the zillion $ ones, but taste a few and you will know what you like.
As a bonus a half gallon of good cider for cooking or pickling and that should do you just fine.
Apple cider, red wine and distilled white vinegar are the 3 staples.
I also have balsamic, malt, rice wine and white wine vinegar.
Distilled white vinegar for restoring old rusty cast iron. Or for cleaning a stubborn stainless steel pan/pot with stuck-on food.

November 24, 2014
Bristol, Fl. Wednesday, Governor Rick Scott appointed Walter Lee "Buddy" Money, Jr. to serve as Liberty County Sheriff on an interim basis.
Money, 57, has served as the victim's advocate with the Liberty County Sheriff's Office since 2008.
Previously, Money served with the Coral Gables Police Department from 1983-2005. Money serves on various community boards including the Liberty County Senior Citizens Boards, the Liberty County Children's Coalition, and the Bristol Youth Academy Community Board.
Governor Scott said, "Buddy is a seasoned and effective law enforcement officer and I am confident that he will serve the families of Liberty County with honor and distinction during this interim term."
Money will temporarily replace the suspended Liberty County Sheriff Nick Finch, who was suspended after being arrested on felony charges.
Finch was arrested after Florida Department Law Enforcement Agents say he told jailers to free a man arrested on gun charges and then destroyed paperwork with the case.
Money is appointed for a term beginning July 5, 2013.

So who's pumped to watch the Winter Olympics in Sochi? From speed skating to biathlons, the winter olympics couldn't culminate a better mix of "random" sports that are exciting as the March Madness – totally unpredictable.
However, Sochi/Russia has been receiving a lot of negative attention- from topics that include terrorism to gay, it has been one heck of a build up. One other topic that we can't neglect is Sochi. The city of Sochi. As the Olympic stadiums, resorts, and villages are being erected, the environment around its area has been demolishing. They are constructing a "city" over marshlands and what used to be a national park. But because of the constructions, the animals are starting to become disoriented, disrupting their habitats and hibernation patterns, and the lands are becoming filled with waste, which may be seeping into the water system.
Although this is an exciting time, we have to play our part to preserve the beauty around us – the playground that us athletes, fitness gurus, casual joggers, and all could've potentially enjoyed. But hopefully the damage won't be as destructive as it could potentially be, and hopefully, this will be a smoothly run Winter Olympics, which we can't wait for!

A former health insurance executive is raising questions about Gov. Sam Brownback's plan to move the state's Medicaid program to a managed-care system.
Wendell Potter spoke to advocates for the disabled and testified before a Kansas Senate committee Tuesday about his concerns over
the proposal, called KanCare. He is a former public relations specialist for Humana and Cigna.
Potter told the advocates that he does not question Brownback's motives for suggesting the changes. But he says there are better ways to serve vulnerable citizens than turning health care over to for-profit insurance companies.
Currently, five insurance companies are bidding for three state Medicaid contracts. KanCare is scheduled to take affect Jan. 1.
Brownback officials said Tuesday that KanCare will provide better
management of all services.

FRESNO, Calif. (AP) - A German shepherd belonging to a Fresno store owner is recovering from losing an eye after being beaten by a burglar.
The Fresno Bee reports the 9-year-old dog, Flash, lost her right eye when she was struck with a weapon wielded by the crook, who was after radio scanners and other merchandise at Sparky's, an electronics store.
Owner Cheryl Cook tells the newspaper she isn't sure whether Flash was beaten out of fear that she was a guard dog or out of simple cruelty. Cook says Flash, who was alone in the store during the burglary, is more of a friendly pet than a guard dog.
After surgery, Flash was back at the store Monday, appearing chipper and sweet despite her injuries.
Cook is planning to offer a reward for the arrest of the burglar.

Destined for an Early Grave: A Night Huntress Novel (Mass Market Paperback)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
Her deadly dreams leave her in grave danger
Since half-vampire Cat Crawfield and her undead lover Bones met six years ago, they've fought against the rogue undead, battled a vengeful Master vampire, and pledged their devotion with a blood bond. Now it's time for a vacation. But their hopes for a perfect Paris holiday are dashed when Cat awakes one night in terror. She's having visions of a vampire named Gregor who's more powerful than Bones and has ties to her past that even Cat herself didn't know about.
Gregor believes Cat is his and he won't stop until he has her. As the battle begins between the vamp who haunts her nightmares and the one who holds her heart, only Cat can break Gregor's hold over her. She'll need all the power she can summon in order to bring down the baddest bloodsucker she's ever faced . . . even if getting that power will result in an early grave.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Fewer people purchased previously occupied homes in April. Activity among first-time homebuyers increased and foreclosure sales declined, but those factors weren't enough to signal a recovery in the weak housing market.
Sales of previously occupied homes fell 0.8 percent in April to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.05 million units, the National Association of Realtors said Thursday. That's far below the 6 million homes a year that economists say represents a healthy market.
Purchases made by first-time homebuyers increased to make up 36 percent of sales. That's still below the 40 percent that the trade group says is consistent with better markets. Sales to investors dropped slightly to account for about 20 percent of the market.
Since the housing boom went bust, sales have fallen in four of the past five years and hit a 13-year low last year. Sharp price declines and low mortgage rates haven't been enough to boost home sales this year.
Some people who want to buy can't, mostly because banks have tightened lending requirements and are insisting on larger down payments. Many buyers who are able to qualify for loans are holding off, worried that home prices won't hit bottom for some time. Economists say it could be years before the housing market fully recovers.
And more homes under contract for sale are being delayed, re-negotiated or canceled, mostly because of the tighter lending requirements. A separate survey from the trade group found 11 percent of Realtors said a contract was canceled because an appraisal came in below the negotiated price. And 14 percent said a contract was renegotiated to a lower price because of a low appraisal.
The median sales price in April rose 2.4 percent from March, to $163,700. It's still down 5 percent from the same month one year ago. The median price of a new home is now nearly 31 percent higher than the median price for a previously occupied home. That's twice the normal markup.
The gap is largely because of the flood of foreclosures or short sales - when the lender accepts less than what is owed on the mortgage - which are forcing down prices.
Sales of homes at risk of foreclosure fell in April and made up 37 percent of all purchases. Foreclosure sales declined only because a large number of those homes are backlogged in the courts. They have been held up by a state and federal probe into troubled foreclosure practices by lenders.
A record 1 million homes were lost to foreclosures last year and foreclosure tracker RealtyTrac Inc. expects 1.2 million more will be lost this year.
There's a glut of unsold homes on the market but few buyers are biting. In April, the supply of homes rose to nearly 3.9 million. At last month's sales pace, it would take more than 9 months to clear those homes. Analysts say a healthy supply can be cleared in six months.
The increase in unsold inventory "should continue to weigh on prices," said Dan Greenhaus, chief economic strategist at Miller Tabak + Co.
The situation is much worse when taking into account the "shadow inventory" of homes, economists say. These are homes that are in the early stages of the foreclosure process but, because of backlogged courts or the government probes, have not hit the market for re-sale.
The Mortgage Bankers Association said Monday that about 8.3 percent of homeowners missed at least one mortgage payment in the January-March quarter when adjusted for seasonal factors. That's up 0.7 percent from the previous quarter.
Sales fell across most regions of the country. In April, sales declined 7.5 percent in the Northeast, 1.6 percent in the West and 1 percent in the South. But they rose 5.7 percent in the Midwest.

Property Tax
It is grossly inequitable that most multi-residential tenants are taxed by many municipalities anywhere from two to fives times what homeowners and condominium owners. The following reports address the issue of property tax discrimination of apartment tenants.

Multi-unit Property Tax Reform: The Long and Winding Road
By: John Dickie
In 2003 the tax rates borne by multi-residential property in major Ontario cities range from 1.0 times to 3.9 times the tax rates borne by single family homes (down from 1.3 times to 4.0 times in 2002). That is the case despite the fact that the average tenant's income is 53% of the average home owner's income.

Taxation of Multi-Residential Properties in Ontario
By: FRPO
Unfair municipal taxation of tenants significantly exacerbates affordability problems. This report explains how fair taxation of renters across Ontario would solve housing affordability problems for tens of thousands of households.
November 2002
Ontario Property Assessment and Classification Review
By: Marcel Beaubien
This report recommends that the multi-residential property class be combined with the residential class and that the municipal tax rate on multi-residential properties be reduced to the residential rate. In making this recommendation, it is noted that property tax savings would have to be passed along to tenants.
October 2001
The Urgent Need to Bring Fairness to the Taxation of Multi-Residential Properties in Ontario
By: FRPO
This report recommends that there should be no discrimination in taxation on the basis of tenure - on rental versus ownership. All residential accommodation should be taxed at the same rate. Therefore, there is no rationale for having a separate property tax class for multi-residential. Multi-residential properties should be put in the same class as residential properties.

It started in Albany late night around 1 a.m., apparently: State Senator George Latimer, a Democrat from Westchester, compared the up-for-vote and overstuffed EFLA bill to a holiday gift basket. You like the shortbread cookies, but you dont like the kumquats, he said, City Room reports. But you have to either take the whole basket or send it back to your aunt and say, Sorry, I didnt really like this basket. The dude said that about kumquats. Then all hell broke loose.
Lawmakers ended up discussing kumquats literal and metaphorical for hours. (The bill was approved at 4:15.) The real takeaway, however, is that many of New York State's elected officials do not know kumquats are actually pretty sweet, and some do not know what kumquats even are. "I looked it up; apparently it's a citrus fruit," said Michael Gianaris, a Queens-based Senator. "I dont know why theres so much hostility against it, but nonetheless, there is."
The furor continued today when the kumquat industry struck back. "They don't know what they're talking about," said Maggie Neuhoser, a co-owner of the Dade, Floridabased Kumquat Growers, Inc., in a boldly worded statement. The longer you chew on the tart kumquat, the sweeter it gets, she said of the misunderstood fruit.
Mr. Gianaris and his peers should know that there are plenty of kumquats in New York City right now, and should they decide to strike while the iron is hot, they may find kumquats deliciously grilled with mussels on the plancha at Willow Road, muddled in gin and tonics at Cata on the Lower East Side, and as a condiment at Bar Jamón in Gramercy. Vinegar Hill House may also have a few kicking around, and if the Senate can wait and they should they should get a big municipal bus and head on down to Alder, Wylie Dufresne's new restaurant, which will feature stuffed kumquats on the menu when it starts serving tomorrow night.
