How To Warm Up A White Kitchen (& Add Personality)
After our big kitchen renovation we were left with a nice polished looking room, but the space still felt so bare and devoid of warmth and personality… and we just didn't know where to start.
Slowly we amassed some great items that gave our new kitchen a lot more character and charm. Whew. So we're here to share a few simple (and cheap) ways to up the ante in your kitch with eye-pleasing and functional additions that will look good while providing convenience and usability to boot.
1. Jars for cereal. We got ours for $6.97 each at Walmart last October and we love that we can easily pour our cheerios or granola (which they keep nice and fresh).
2. A chic olive oil jar from Williams-Sonoma. This is a one time purchase that might run you a bit of money the first time, but it's totally an investment since it looks so lovely and can be refilled with cheap ol' store bought olive oil when you run out of the good stuff (which feels oh so decadent while it lasts). And placing a collection of a few charming olive oil containers – or other bottled cooking ingredients – on a regular old plate on the counter is an easy way to protect it from oil stains while everything looks tied together and neatly corralled. Oh and you could also opt to take the store-your-oil-in-a-chic-glass-bottle approach. That trick can also look very swanky indeed.
3. A cake stand. You can grab one from TJ Maxx (like we did) or at Marshall's, Target, and Home Goods on the cheap. It can be used to display anything from cupcakes or pound cake to ceramic fruit or even ornaments for a seasonal effect.
4. And upgraded fruit bowl. Be it a faux clam shell from Z Gallerie (like ours) or a nice wood, metal, or ceramic bowl, sprucing up your countertop fruit situation can really make all the difference. Ikea has this great metal option and we've seen great rustic varieties, like a trio of wooden bowls online and at thrift stores, so you definitely don't have to break the bank for this easy upgrade.
5. Glass canisters for flour, sugar, salt, and beyond. Heck you can even use them to store oatmeal, cous cous or rice if you use those ingredients most often (ours are currently to the left of our stove and full of flour, sugar and rice since those seem to be common cooking necessities for us). Of course it's handy to have them at arm's reach instead of tucked away in the cabinet (just like our cereal jars) and they look so charming and kitchen-appropriate that you'll wonder how you ever lived without them once you snatch them up. Ours were gifts from West Elm but they can be found everywhere from Home Goods and Marshalls to TJ Maxx, Walmart, and Target. Note: learn more about that cabinet full of decorating items that we love to keep corralled here.
6. A nice soap and lotion pump by the sink. It just feels luxe to have lotion on hand after all that dish washing, and our $32 Anthropologie set (which came with an awesome ceramic caddy) has paid for itself a million times over since we love refilling it with cheaper soap and lotion without losing the high-end look. It's up there with our fancy olive oil container- which we also refill- when it comes to feeling like we live the pampered life (without dishing out cash for such indulgences on a monthly basis). Oh and just as we mentioned the glass bottles with a spout as a chic way to store your oil, many people love using those bottles to store soap next to the sink for a chic effect as well- so that's another affordable (and DIYable) option.
7. A swanky cutting board. Ours hails from TJ Maxx and we just love the layered tones of wood that pick up everything from our rich mocha floors to the lighter honey colors in our striped jute rug. Definitely think beyond the plastic or the basic wood cutting board (you can spend the same amount at a discount store like Home Goods or Marshall's for something a lot more expensive looking to give your kitchen some added oomph). And of course you can still keep a plastic one tucked away in a cabinet for cutting chicken if you'd like.
8. An area rug. It just makes our kitchen feel homey. You can easily see the difference the $34 addition made to our space, and the striped jute pattern that we picked hides tons of crumbs and can easily be vacuumed or shaken out in the backyard when it catches a few too many spilled substances. After over a year of use ours still looks great (think of jute like the bristles of a straw broom- it repels wet stains so they can't soak in). So as long as you choose something durable for a high traffic area, not only can it add interest and be super easy to care for, it can even offer up a softer surface to stand on (your knees and back will thank you after a marathon cooking sesh).
9. A ceramic caddy for utensils. This is such an easy item to place next to your cooktop to store all of your wooden spoons and metal spatulas so they're functional and charming in one fell swoop. Ours was just $4 at Marshall's and we love how easy it makes unloading the dishwasher (we just gather all the long spoons and ladles and stick them right in the caddy). We really appreciate that we don't have to sift through drawers or cabinets to find the items that can instead be within reach while we cook. Oh and don't mind that it's pictured next to my vintage V-day gift for John below- the utensil caddy is much more functional now that it's next to the stove).
10. A cute stainless blender and toaster for the counter. If you're like us and you use these items frequently, there's nothing more functional than choosing to store them right on the counter at arm's reach. Of course this means that investing in some nice stainless versions will upgrade the look of your entire kitchen (and tie in with your appliances if they're also of the stainless variety) so think about splurging just a bit (we especially love our Oster beehive blender, which actually gets complements for sitting out on the counter). And it was oh so worth it since they perform amazingly well and we never have to bother with pulling them in and out of a cabinet.
Extra credit: Charming patterned Ikea glasses and cute decorative Target bowls. Both stores make great options with tons of color, interest, pattern and texture so they can really add a lot to your kitchen. Whether it's just stacking four bowls from Target and filling the top one with fresh strawberries or grabbing a few brightly colored ceramic dishes and using them to store pistachios next to your fruit bowl, there's not enough we can say about a few pops of color and interest in the form of affordable glasses and bowls.
So there you have ten- well, eleven- ways to add warmth and personality (along with lots of affordable function) to your kitchen. Do you guys have other tips to share with anyone who's looking to spice up their blah cooking space? What's your favorite countertop item in your kitch? Do tell.

Awesome! Thanks!
Hi! Love these cheap and easy options for making a chic and inviting kitchen! One question….where did you get your appliances? We have been talking about upgrading our appliance in the future and I'm sure you shopped for the best price! Also, as far as painting cabinets go, do you have any great tips in getting the best look? We have VERY OLD 50's cabinets but are planning to paint them instead of paying to get new ones right now. Any must know tips?
Oh, and I SOOO want one of those clamshell bowls! I LOVE it!
Hi! I love your blog-thanks for all the tips and inspiration!
I love, love, love my white milk glass urns that I fill with artichokes (real when guests visit), and lovely faux ones for Pier One for everyday use. It makes my kitchen look fresh and gives a pop of color.
I also love my white enamel collanders for TJ Maxx. I have a small and medium size that I stack in my glass front cabinets. Sounds crazy, but I just love them :)
don't get me wrong, i love love love you guys and check your blog twice a day for your postings, but i was really disappointed by this post. i think it is because you set the bar so high and it is not as if any of your tips weren't helpful. i have seen all of those pictures before on the blog and the picture with the ceramic caddy? come on guys you can barely see it…that picture was taken a long time ago for the gift you bought john, not the caddy. i don't want to put a damper on your day and as i type this i realize that you guys should deserve a break since sherry isn't even getting a maternity leave.
Love that fruit bowl! And the olive oil idea. Brilliant.
Great post, Sher!
Another option (if you're *super* cheap like me and don't want to buy a fancy shmancy oil/vinegar set) is to just deep clean an old wine bottle that you love (remove the labels, run it through the sanitize in the dishwasher, etc.) and then top it with one of these:
I did the same thing years ago and those things have held up so well (and I can color coordinate them to my heart's content!). You can see a pic of that here:
Love your site!
YAY! You just made my day! I was fearing we'd have to do lots of sanding and such….but after reading over your tutorial looks like we get to skip a step! PHEW!
My favorite countertop item is…my countertop, for cooking! I'd much rather have space to be able to prepare food without being crowded. I keep as little as possible on my counter, and keep everything else in nearby cabinets where things are accessible but not in the way. Now if only I had a cabinet big enough for my stand mixer!
I love the tips! I love my awesome white Kitchen-Aid mixer and red ceramic containers for my Splenda and tea that are on my counter. What are your thoughts on all the home improvement shows suggesting keeping counters clutter free? Is this for only if you are selling your home?
That works in a larger kitchen with a lot of counter space but in small kitchens you really can't keep appliances, cutting boards, cereal containers, etc. out in the open. I wish you'd addressed ways to dress up your kitchen using vertical space (walls, windows, etc) as well.
Great tips and i love your kitchen — i'm curious about your cereal jars, though. Do you really lift up the whole heavy glass jar (without a spout even) and pour into a bowl? Or do you have a scoop hidden away and you scoop out the cereal? or…? I've always assumed those clear jars weren't very useful for some food items because it's hard to neatly get the right amount out of them without a scoop.
I keep my run-of-the-mill dish soap in a pretty glass bottle that I fit with a spout for easy pouring (like an olive oil bottle). I need to water down the soap a bit to make it easy to pour, but it's more economical that way anyhow!
I have a cookbook holder on the counter of my kitchen. I don't use it that often while cooking but I do love to display cookbook photography with it. I just pick one of my favorite books, look for a cool/seasonal/interesting photograph and use the holder to display that picture. It can be a conversation starter when people are over and I don't feel like I'm neglecting my cookbooks by leaving them in the pantry all the time.
It appears you have more than one Sally reading your blog. :) While one Sally didn't prefer this post, this Sally did. I always appreciate this kind of post. Though some things have been featured at different times in the past, I don't think I've ever seen them grouped together all in one post before. It's a very convenient format for someone looking for kitchen accessorizing ideas. Cheers!
Looking at all these picks together makes me realize how many ideas we've 'stolen' from YHL. The striped rug, twin cereal jars, the olive oil bottle plate. We even have a giant cutting board that used to be part of our temporary Ikea countertops. I've yet to find an inexpensive giant clam shell though. Thanks for all the inspiration!
i added a fun jute rug from World Market and i agree – it hids the crumbs perfectly!
i have 2 personal notes in my kitchen that i love. The first is an old seat/stepstool that was in my parent's first apartment when got married 40-years ago. Amazing what alittle paint can do! (http://www.flickr.com/photos/7306948@N04/4730172049/in/photostream/)
The other items are two recipe cards that i sent to my mother and mother in law asking them to jot down our family favorite recipes. I framed them and they hang above our cookbooks. It makes me smile everytime i see their handwriting…
Your kitchen is lovely.
I like to display an open cookbook on a simple wire stand – kinda like artwork in the kitchen. Cookbooks have such gorgeous pictures and they can be changed easily. As an added bonus, it motivates me to use my cookbooks and try new recipes. And the stand is handy when I am actually cooking!
I bought the stand at Borders or Barnes/Nobel for about $5.00.
Don't forget wall art if you have the space! I have a large amount of wall space over my kitchen table so I bought some fun colorful drawings of tomatoes and asparagus, framed them (all from Ikea) and they look really lovely and tie the room together.
Wow, your kitchen looks great! I really appreciate your breaking down everything you did to accessorize your great space. It makes it so easy to see everything you've done and I was able to get some great ideas–love the jars for cereal. You have such a talent for grouping items and making the sum SO much greater than the individual parts. Awesome!!
Well, let me say I enjoy this post and pretty much every post even if it does have repeat pictures!! :-D I have our kitchen on a weekend "to do" list for the future. I really want to figure out what to keep out on our counters and what needs to find a home in our shelves/cabinets. We are at a slight disadvantage b/c we do not have a pantry in our kitchen. We have lots of cabinet space and one of our lower cabinets has two of the cute little spin thingees (gotta love my professional terminology) that we use as our pantry to store canned goods, extra sugar/flour/powdered sugar, etc… after we fill the glass containers in the cabinets.
Right now we have our rice cooker, blender, cannister w/ big spoons, auto soap dispenser, martha stewart cleaning spray, small rotating spice rack (we have a TON more spices in the cabinets, can opener, toaster, and a cute decorate bowl which usually holds bread out on the counters. WOW that sounds like a lot of stuff but we have a pretty large kitchen so all of those things are pretty well spread out. Anywho, this post will work as inspiration when I finally get to finalizing our countertops!! so i'll be back in touch once I get to it! and again, great post! :-)
Love the idea of a ceramic jar to hold all the utensils. It would certainly free up space in my kitchen's sole drawer. I also love how you made your kitchen into a U-shaped work space. The most efficient kitchen I've ever worked in was a U-shaped one.
We recently visited friends in Charleston who used a beautiful olive oil jars for dish soap! It was brilliant – and beautiful! Looks so much classier than a plastic bottle on the counter and you can refill it easily. Now to just find the right jar!
I love that your kitchen is decorated for function and not just looks. It actually looks like someone uses it!
We keep our white ceramic gravy boat out and fill it with candy/fruit/etc.
We also keep our white platter out with a plate stand, it's one less thing to store and it serves as a backdrop to other things.
I enjoyed the ideas you shared, but like Shannon and Heather S., we don't have a lot of counter space to spare. (As much as I'd love a stand mixer, this is why I haven't gotten one yet!) I would also appreciate ideas for adding warmth and personality to a room that's mostly cabinetry and limited counter space. We do have a raised (bar-height?) portion to our counter that I'm not sure how best to utilize/decorate – it's not wide enough for eating, nor is there floor space to accommodate seating there. Additionally, we have a space (18-24 inches?) between the top of our cabinets and the ceiling. I'd rather have cabinets all the way up, but a full-scale kitchen renovation isn't in the budget!
I love to have a knife block out on the counter, it makes it super easy to protect and for convenience purposes. While I didn't love the actual knife quality that came with mine, since the sizes of the holes were for the most common (and useful) knives–like 8″ chef, etc. –I've just replaced the knifes and kept the wood block!
It's great :)

Det tar några dagar att ställa om kroppen och hjärnan.. Pga tupplur igår em (A) så vaknade vi båda kl,05.00. Det fick bli lite läsning i väntan på dagen och frukost, som den här dagen var delvis inhandlad igår. Vi kom givetvis iväg tidigt och satt sikte på 'Fort Bragg'. Först SFO …
Leaving the slum, then to Caspar (camping)
I've never been so happy to leave a hotel. This place was a DUMP.
We stopped by Point Reyes national park for some (more) good views, but mostly just enjoyed the scenery along route 1.
The dogs are doing well, as is the camper. We're happy Caspar is getting the help he needs, but sad to see him go.
We found a neat campsite with a beautiful ocean view (Caspar beach rv park), and settled for the night. Campfire w/ BBQ and beer. Life is good.

Terry`s house is just across the road from the ocean and it is so awesomely convenient to talk a walk on the cliffs and beaches, or go look for starfish and tidal pool critters, or go seal spotting, or watch those big Pacific waves crashing on the rocks, or dig in the sand, or watch a sunset over the waves.

Blue Bomber Report Record: 7–11–0
Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Bellefeuille's tweaks to Bomber playbook getting thumbs up
This is what it has come to for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers: a day in which no one was promoted, demoted or fired becomes, in itself, the news of the moment.
And so when head coach Tim Burke stepped to the podium for his daily media session following practice today and the meatiest questions involved injury updates and roster adjustments it seemed almost, well, normal.
Those still thirsting for more heads to roll will have to wait. In the meantime, here are some of the nuggets worth passing along from Wednesday in Bomberland:
- Receiver Terrence Edwards and offensive tackles Glenn January and Shannon Boatman were all back at work after missing portions of Tuesday's workout.
- Defensive back Alex Suber did not practice as he has been hobbled by a foot injury. Burke said Suber is probable after having positive test results from the training staff. Guard Steve Morley, who has missed the last two days of practice with 'bumps and bruises' should also return on Thursday.
- Max Hall and Buck Pierce took the majority of reps with the No. 1 offence, but so did Justin Goltz.
- Clarence Denmark was taking a lot of turns at slotback with Jade Etienne at wide receiver.
- Burke said fullback Carl Fitzgerald will be added to the roster this week "because we're going to save some new personnel packages and we want to utilize his talents in those."
Meanwhile, the tweakings new offensive coordinator Marcel Bellefeuille has made to the playbook are drawing the thumbs up from those in the trenches.
"He's been on the details with everything with every position," said running back Chad Simpson. "He's coaching up the O-line, the running backs… he's giving us a little bit more game insight because the CFL game is different. I'm not saying (Gary Crowton) couldn't have done that, but (Bellefeuille) has more experience being in the CFL.
"On offence you just want to read and react and expose a defence for their weaknesses and take advantage of that. I don't think we've been doing that. A lot of teams have been blitzing us and we haven't been having an answer. With this guy coming in and being detailed oriented and changing a couple of things we should handle that differently… better."
Asked if he thinks he might be busier this Saturday in Guelph against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats – running backs have been featured prominently and productive in Bellefeuille's offences with other CFL teams in the past -- Simpson grinned.
'Y'all have to see. You'll have to wait. I'm not going to give it away," he said. "We're in a tough position right now and I don't want to be giving anyone any tips."

20-10-20 water soluable
I am on it again trying to come up with affordable locally sourced hydro nutrients. The local tobacco warehouse has chelan 20-10-20 that they use in the float beds. I can't find an analysis online for it. Wondering if this is something we can adapt to our operation. It is easy to raise nitrogen, but I don't know how to raise the others. Any recomendations?
20-10-20 for your 200 gallons (757 liters):
= 378.5 grams or
= 13.35 ounces
That's 13.35 ounces. Check that the fert has micros and if you must use hard water you're almost surely perfect to go. Even stick in up to a half level teaspoon of boric acid (less than 3 g) and a a dime's worth of Epsom Salt from Walmart if you are really gun ho.

I've got a bunch of fires to put out at the moment so I'll read the other as soon as I can.
Not for lettuce Rio, if that's what you meant. Well, really we don't know, but by defaul;t the tobacco would be no until you can get us an analysis of what's in it from the seller. The assumption for a complete tobacco float fertilizer is that it has very weak micronutrients. Like "Peat Lite" from J R Peters. So this tobacco stuff is loaded with nitrogen which prevents us from using much Calcium Nitrate. Calcium deficiency would be a problem for you doing fast leafies on rainwater. If you want to assume this 20-10-20 tobacco stuff you found is a typical tobacco float formula, you can't avoid paying the piper. Sure it could be used, but then you'd need to work out the calcium issue for rainwater and maybe bump up the phosphate, which is low for tobacco floats. Even though P's not a big problem for leaves, we'd need to look at it and possibly a sack of MKP (so if you can't get that locally - back to where you started by mail), cheap epsom salt and a blend of micronutrients. You could mailorder the blend of micros from JRPeters also, and it is a great deal and small = cheap to ship if that's the issue. Then I'd say look at that product and add the amount that gives 2.5 ppm of iron, so that would determine the amount of the micro blend to use.
It's all about your local vs. shipped economics. The tobacco formula would be a fine base if it was cheap enough and probably could work just fine with the adjustments mentioned. But we need to sharpen out pencils and be sure what your local guy is selling - analysis of it.
Most cheap bulk hydro complete ferts use Fe EDTA. which is great at low pH. I really think the tobacco formula would too. For most this is fine, but in my personal case I like to drift my pH up to 7 for some things and for that I'm a big propmoter of Fe DTPA. No biggie just something I'm noting if you go that route.


text: I have never tried this but, in her book "Alternative Processes Condensed", Christina Anderson says you can test FO by mixing a "pinch" of potassium Ferricyanide in 25ml of distilled water then add a drop of your FO. If the solution turns blue, it is bad. If it turns brown, it is ok.

Shane and his partner were delightful guests. They left the cottage very neat and clean.

Hello to all and thank you
I have made a few batches of mead, this fall I am going to try making Hard Apple Cider.
My question is once it has fermented and i have it bottled, how long should u let it age?
How long will it last in the 750ml bottle stored in my celler. Does it expire?
Well, the base waiting time is 2 weeks. That is just a general aging length. A lot of people think you should leave it for a lot longer to let the flavors mingle. I found that my first batch tasted better after 1 week than at 2 weeks. But it is different batch to batch. I'd say drink before a year and a half is up. That will insure it hasn't vinegared(no promises though). And if it goes bad(ie. Vinegar) you still have a lovely apple cider vinegar to use there is a plus side to everything.
I don't even touch my apfelwein til it's a year old. It's a big beverage and needs a lot of time to mellow out.
Like my snazzy new avatar? Get Sons of Zymurgy swag, here, and brew with the best.Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman
I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew
Depends on what style you are making. Generally the sweeter you stop it, the earlier you can drink it. I've got a keg in the fridge right now that I pressed just a few weeks ago. It tastes great. The drier it goes, the longer you will need to wait for the acids to mellow out.
thank you guys this helps i think i shall make mine on the sweet side and if all works out it will be a good christmas treat
Ding... Sweet = drink soon.... My sweet cider tasted kinda funny 1-day after bottling, but was *Wonderful* 1-week later.... 3 months later -- it was pretty good, but the original appley flavor was starting to mellow out....
Dry cider seems to do way better if you let it sit a while .... especially if you bumped up the Alcohol content with extra sugar or apple juice concentrate..... That's the stuff that tastes like lighter fluid or really Sharp/bitter when you bottle.... and a year later it's delicious....
If I was going to brew up a Christmas Sweet Cider -- I would start it in November...

It was the fancy little side-tables that really sold it to me. That tender touch that means so much. Having been handed a glass of wine at my seat, out comes a flip-up surface to put it on. It's only then you realise the advantage of the double-sized legroom — people can get past you without all that jump-up-and-squeeze-past annoyance of the traditional cinema experience.
This is the Everyman Belsize Park; the newest cinema in the country. Until recently it was called the Screen on the Hill; the local cinema of the NW3 set, just around the corner from Supernova Heights and Helena Bonham Carter's gaff. Strangely, under the previous management, it could claim to be the country's leading kosher cinema — alongside the actor-fluff and music-industry degenerates, Belsize Park contains a sizeable if ageing Jewish community, and the Screen on the Hill could be relied on to book the new Woody Allen film when no one else would.
Now, though, it's been taken over and kitted out by the same people who turned the Everyman cinema, up the hill in Hampstead proper, into a boutique movie theatre with wide, wide sofa seats and refreshments served direct to the auditorium. Clearly it's part of the modern fad for what we might call the adulting of cinemagoing — along with no-kids screenings and the Smoking Cabinet series. This, of course, is in stark contrast to the multiplex revolution of the 1990s, which saw rep cinemas (like the Everyman itself) massacred and bright, shiny multi-screened establishments take the frenetic route into bamboozling the clientele into thinking they were having a good time.
It comes at a price, of course, but as several West End cinemas charge the frankly staggering sum of £12 for admittance, at least you get a bit more for a similar amount of money. The film they put on the night I was there was a preview of the Sean Penn vehicle, Milk — I don't know if it was the sharp decor or the club class seating, but it certainly seemed like a step forward in cinematic evolution to me. I'll be back, for sure.

GIGABYTE Z87X-UD3H (Intel Z87) Motherboard Review - Memory Benchmarks
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.00.1035BETA
Developer Homepage: http://www.aida64.com
Product Homepage: http://www.AIDA64.com
Replacing Everest in our labs is AIDA64. This new testing suite is from the core development team from Lavalys and continues that tradition. The guys have thrown in better support for multithreaded CPUs as well as full 64 bit support. We use this to test memory and HDDs for now, but may find ourselves opening this up to other areas of the motherboard.
Memory performance across all our Z87 boards are fairly similar and like we've seen all along, overclocking really does nothing to performance.

Among its many more notable functions, this organization is looking out for Americans and doing the dirty work of exposing the deceptive food marketing practices of multinational food corporations. Not only this, but it works hard to educate the public on eating more healthfully. In particular, I love Nutrition Action newsletter which is put out by the CSPI. It is sometimes written in a humorous style that will tickle your funny bone. In particular, one of the issues featured an interview with Brian Wansink, professor of nutrition at Cornell. After I read this, it left me wanting to know more. In my losing 20 pounds this past year, I am sure that Nutrition Action newsletter has helped. Other articles tackle tough issues like diabetes management, reading vitamin labels and so much more. As a citizen concerned about the quality and options of food in America, I can't recommend the work of this organization enough.

Over-crowded; what should I do?
I just planted my garden today and I did something really stupid. I had five germinated pea plants that I put in and started wrapping up a trellis. Then, because I'm doing SFG, and I remember reading that 9 could fit in one square, I added two garden bean seeds and 2 zucchini seeds. They are both bush plants. I know I can grow the zucchini up and if I'm smart about it, I might be okay. But with the beans and peas and zucchini together, there's not enough room! So, do I wait for the seeds to germinate and then just thin all the garden beans out or should I try to see if they can all grow in that little 1' x 1' square? Help!
I've always found that a zucchini takes a 2' X 2' area - can you wait for things to germinate and then move the zuke someplace else? The peas & beans will be fine together. But overcrowding the zuke will lead to powdery mildew. Better to thin or relocate than to lose it all. It's only 2 seeds lost!

Dory and her sister!
Lindsay from Lakeland, FL– Verified Buyer
These fish are adorable! I bought them on a daily sale, which means I love them even more because I didn't pay the full price for them (which is too high if you ask me but whatever, that's what sales are for!) The larger fish looks exactly like Dory from Finding Nemo, in fact, when I pulled them out of the box, my husband was walking by and exclaimed "DORY!" :) Perfect addition to my living room - very very happy!

Whats this insect on the cucumber and question about maturity
I noticed this insect on the cucumber tendrils today.
It is green, with long monsquito like legs and 1-2 mm in length. Did not see more of them . (though its quite possible there are more and I cant spot them. What bug is this? Do I need to take care of it with some insecticide? Will it eat the plant?
Also, the plant information says matures in 65 days. What does that mean? Does that have any correlation with when the fruit will ripen?
thanks Cole_Robbie .. aphids they are and in large numbers too :( Under the tomato leaves I am seeing a lot of them .. (None under the cucumber leaves though) Now to figure out what is the most effective and least repetitive way to control those things. So far I have seen hosing the plant (when the aphids get washed out to the soil, do they die or climb back up?), insecticide soap, tomato leaves spray, garlic spray, ladybugs .. What is the consensus approach to controlling aphids?
A good blast from the hose every now and then usually does the trick. Soapy water can work well also. Ladybugs are great,but usually fly away quickly, so not really worth the money...but if there are some around, move them in to your container and they may help a bit.
Thanks Howelbama. So the plants don't break any leaves/branches with the powerful spray? Also, I think I will need to hold the branch so that I am hitting the underside of the leaves with the nozzle. (I will try some branches to see how much pressure I need to use .. This seems to be something I need to do with lot of care). Also do the washed off aphids die in the grow media? or can they climb back on to the plants
Are these carried by nursery plants? Or do their eggs/larvae float in the air to infest new locations? So if I grow everything from seed, would I not have to worry about these guys? (for next year ..)
Thanks ..
Well, don't use so much force that you damage the foliage.. I'm not sure if they will climb back up, I suppose they may, but if you keep disrupting them, they should not get out of control... Starting from seed may help,a bit, but they likely will migrate in one way or another. Encouraging beneficials is the best thing to do for control....daddy long leg spiders love them, so any of those guys you happen across, move them in to your garden and they will likely help you out a bit. In fact, any spiders will be of great help, so you should keep them around when you see them...unless it's a black widow or something, in that case get get rid of it safely lol...

Hugo Barra discusses Xiaomi's consumer "family", security concerns, and how its cut-throat smartphone business model turns a profit.
Xiaomi's Hugo Barra talks business models and smartphone success
by Rob Triggs 4 months ago
Hugo Barra discusses Xiaomi's consumer "family", security concerns, and how its cut-throat smartphone business model turns a profit.
Xiaomi sold 19 million smartphones in Q3 2014, according to market researcher IHS iSuppli, making it the third largest handset manufacturer in the world.
Xiaomi's Hugo Barra has announced that the company is moving user data and services to new servers over multiple sites, in order to improve user access speeds and combat fears over privacy.
Today, Xiaomi has announced that it is beta testing four home automation products, signalling a move into the smart home business.
Samsung devices have been banned from use by Chinese state officials.
Two of the most interesting smartphone companies of today, which one will trump the other?
We lift the lid on this year's winners and losers so far, and take a look at emerging trends in the global smartphone arms race.
The first wave of Android One handsets have just gone on sale in India, costing around $100. But are these the best value handsets on the market right now?
Xiaomi is hoping to make its presence felt on a global scale with its latest flagship. What does it have to offer? We find out in this Xiaomi Mi 4 review!
Before diving in to a full review, we'll be taking a look and giving our first impressions about the Xiaomi Mi-4!

Thursday's Sports In Brief
LONDON (AP) — Eugenie Bouchard defeated French Open runner-up Simona Halep 7-6 (5), 6-2 to become the first Canadian to advance to a Grand Slam tournament final.
The 20-year-old Bouchard, who has not dropped a set in six matches, won on her sixth match point and will play 2011 Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova, who beat fellow Czech left-hander Lucie Safarova 7-6 (6), 6-1.
Bouchard lost in the semifinals at the year's two previous majors, the Australian Open and French Open. She's projected to rise to No. 7 — the highest ranking for a Canadian woman — by reaching Saturday's final and would go to No. 6 by winning the championship.
Bouchard would also be the youngest Grand Slam champion since 19-year-old Maria Sharapova won the 2006 U.S. Open.
In the first semifinal, Kvitova, 24 and the only player born in the 1990s to have won a major title — here, three years ago — improved her record to 25_5 on the Wimbledon grass. She's made at least the quarterfinals for five years in a row.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Four years after their messy breakup, the Cavaliers and LeBron James are at least talking about a reunion.
Cavs officials met with James' agent, Rich Paul, this week about the free-agent superstar's possible return. The sides visited as James continued his family vacation, a person with knowledge of the details told The Associated Press.
It was not immediately clear if owner Dan Gilbert was at the meeting.
James recently opted out of the final two years of his contract in Miami. The two-time NBA champion has gone to four straight finals with the Heat. However, after the team was throttled by San Antonio in this year's finals, James said he would weigh his options this summer.
NEW YORK (AP) — The Knicks went coast to coast to let Carmelo Anthony know they want him to stay in New York.
Team officials traveled to Los Angeles to meet with the free agent and offered him the maximum contract allowable, a person with knowledge of the details said.
Team President Phil Jackson and general manager Steve Mills were part of the meeting but not Madison Square Garden chairman James Dolan, an official with knowledge of the plans told The Associated Press.
The meeting was first reported by ESPN.
Anthony was in Los Angeles to meet with the Lakers, who are among the teams hoping to convince the All_Star forward to leave New York. Anthony already visited Chicago, Houston and Dallas this week.
DALLAS (AP) — Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks have agreed on what could be the final contract for the big German.
A person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press that Nowitzki would get a three-year contract worth roughly $30 million.
New contracts can't be signed until next Thursday.
The 36-year-old Nowitzki is taking a big pay cut with a contract similar in value and structure to the one Tim Duncan signed with San Antonio two years ago.

Used to develop elegant documents • In the olden times, DTP was used for designing magazines, newspapers & other professional-looking items • These days, because of the low cost of DTP SW, it is being used for less-demanding and ordinary tasks as well • The original Macintosh PC started the era of DTP or "Personal Publishing" in 1984 DTP –vs– WP • The difference between the two is diminishing with time • Most WP's now include many tools that, not long ago, were found only in DTP SW • Generally, DTP SW is a bit more difficult to use for us common computer users, whereas WP SW is quite user-friendly • DTP SW generally provides finer control over the design/layout of a document DTP: Requirements Page 2 of 5 © Copyright Virtual University of Pakistan Virtual University Introduction to Computing • High-end PC with a large-screen monitor • Laser printer • Scanner • DTP SW – Examples: • Adobe PageMaker • QuarkXPress • Corel Ventura • MS Publisher Word Processors for the Web • Most common WP's and DTP packages now have the Web development ability – They also include features like auto-recognition of eMail addresses and URL's • However, specialized SW just for developing Web pages and sites is also available – Examples: DreamWeaver, FrontPage The right font face & size for normal text • If text is too small, it becomes hard to read • Too large, wastage of space is the result. Plus the reader has to turn more pages than necessary • Either way, the reader gets annoyed • For general WP, 10-12 point size works well • Most users, either use the Times New Roman or Arial/Helvetica type face Bold, Italic, Underlined Text • Bold – fat • Italic – slanted (Why the name italic?) • Underlined • All used to emphasize a certain segment of text • Plea: – Please do not over-do them – Their over-use makes it very difficult for the reader – And please, use one at a time: Text that is no only bold but also italic & underlined looks +ively awful Select, Cut, Copy, Drag, Paste • Just select and cut or copy or drag • Can also paste after a cut or a copy • Just think about the pain that people suffered before the advent of the modern WP's – Movement of a single sentence from one page to another would have required re- doing all the pages in between Spelling & Grammar • Grammar checkers are not very helpful yet, but still useful and are improving with time Page 3 of 5 © Copyright Virtual University of Pakistan Virtual University Introduction to Computing • Warning: Spell checkers are not all that smart! Use them with care. • Disadvantage: My spelling ability is deteriorating day-by-day because of over- reliance on WP spell-checkers. I am having great difficulty in writing even short-ish hand-written notes without spelling errors Thesaurus • My favorite tool • Helps you find synonyms and, sometimes, antonyms as well Tables • Tables are sometimes useful for presenting info in an ordered fashion • Most WP's provide extensive table construction & manipulation features Graphics & Drawings • You can insert graphics that are made using other apps into a WP document • Several WP's have a built-in drawing tool, which can be used for adding simple diagrams (e.g. a flow chart, a simple street map) into a WP document The Best Feature: Undo • Allows you to recover from your mistakes • Allows you to experiment without risk Document View Mode • Most WP's provide several ways of viewing a document • I normally work in and recommend what is known as the "Print Layout" view mode • In this view, the WP works in a true WYSIWYG mode Print-Preview & Printing • Make sure to preview your document before printing it • Do this to make sure about the"look" of the document before it is printed • Most people these days either use inkjet printers or laser printers – Color inkjet printers cost less but are slower – B&W laser printers cost around twice as much, but are faster and generally have finer resolution – Color laser printers are expensive Automation • Table of contents – TOC can be automatically generated – Page nos. in the TOC get readjusted automatically • Index – Can be automatically generated – Page nos. in the index get readjusted automatically • Application of predefined styles – Change style; text changes automatically throughout the doc • Headers & Footers – Page numbers • Spelling error auto-highlight Page 4 of 5 © Copyright Virtual University of Pakistan Virtual University Introduction to Computing Getting On-Screen Help • All WP's generally have some form of built-in help mechanism • To me, it seems like that many of those help-systems are designed to be "not-very- helpful": they make finding answers to simple questions quite difficult • Nevertheless, do try them when you are searching for answers Let's try to use MS Word for creating a CV (Remember the TOC) Today's Lecture was the … • First among the four lectures that we plan to have on productivity software, a sub- category of application software • This first lecture was on word processing • We learnt about what we mean by word processing and also desktop publishing • We also discussed the usage of various functions provided by common word processors Focus of the Next Lecture: Algorithms • To become familiar with the concept of algorithms – What they are? – What is there use? • To become able to write algorithms for simple problems Page 5 of 5 © Copyright Virtual University of Pakistan

Really Dumb
So I enjoyed this game previously on my phone and decided to buy this version for my IPad. Should of saved my money. I don't appreciate the ad going across the bottom of the page, it makes it hard to use. I paid for this so there should be no ads!!
Too busy
Love playing this game on other apps but this one has very very very annoying ads across the bottom of your screen. Makes it impossible to relax and enjoy the game.

2015 Winner of the FMAYS Concerto Competition
Clapp is a Junior at Moorhead High School and has been sawing away
at the violin for 13 years. She has studied with many instructors,
including Vali Phillips, previously a member of the Minnesota Orchestra.
When living in the Twin Cities, she was a member of the Minnesota
Youth Symphonies (MYS) for three years, and since moving to Moorhead
four years ago has played in the FM Area Youth Symphonies, as well
as being in the Allegro Chamber Players throughout high school.
an 8th and 9th grader, she participated in the Minnesota Middle
Level Honors Orchestra, serving as concertmaster the 2nd year. She
has been a member of the Minnesota All-State Orchestra as a Sophomore
and Junior, and hopes to be for a third year. She also participated

please refrain from using your equipment during the concert! Be
a thoughtful audience member and don't take away from the
performance. Also, if you MUST leave and/or return to the concert,
do so during the applause. Thank you!
Do you have any musical instruments in your home that no one plays
or that you've been thinking of selling or giving away? How
about donating them to FMAYS? We are collecting used instruments
for students who don't have the resources to purchase or rent
their own.
Even if the instrument is in need of some tender loving care (a.k.a.
repair), we could fix it up and put it in the hands of a student
eager to practice!
So contact Beth at the office (701-388-4536) and we'll arrange
to pick it up. Thank you!

At this point, I have a few extract batches under my belt and have started to venture out and attempt brewing different styles of beers. There are recipes I want to make but the problem I am facing in my local home brew store really only has Light and Dark extract on hand, which makes brewing some recipes more difficult.
This is something that could be solved by moving to AG. But I am wondering if me doing that is just too much too soon. I have heard of people brewing extract for years before moving to AG brewing. Any thoughts? Was thinking of perhaps going with a BIAB vs. the cooler.
You got this! Go AG
"Now is the time to think of only one thing, that which I was born for" EH
You could go AG, but BIAB may be easier to start with if you don't have the funding to go out and get the cooler and hardware. I'm going to start BIAB my next brew day.
if you move to AG your tinkering will never be done. but its much funner then extract. go for it!
All grain is not difficult. It requires more time and equipment. I started extract, tried a partial mash and bought a ten gallon pot, burner, false bottom and cooler.
The main thing that helped my jump to all grain was the purchase of brewing software that spat out a brew sheet with water volumes and temperature.
I have had one all grain batch that was bad. In retrospect I think I rushed the yeast and it had nothing to do with the mash.
You will likely find that you enjoy having the control over what is in your beer that all grain gives.
I did 2 batches of extract, then 1 of BIAB, and on to all-grain. It can be intimidating to migrate, but it's not difficult. Just do reading and research on it. All-grain brewing is a ton of fun.
I started on day one with all grain. It was very overwhelming at first but I'm glad I started that way.
All grain is not as complex or as hard as it can appear. I did 1 extract kit following the instructions and was so intrigued by the process that I got John Palmer's book How To Brew and studied it and built a 3 gallon all grain system for batch number 2. Since then I just kept going. Say that the tinkering never ends is very true. I have changed this part and swapped out that and improved this. All grain gives you full control. Doing BIAB (check out the sticky in the All Grain & Partial Mash Forum) is actually all grain uses less equipment but works just as well. I say Go for it!!!
I seek not a hobby to fill my time; I seek a passion to fill my life!

"Shame on the man of cultivated taste who permits refinement to develop into fastidiousness that unfits him for doing the rough work of a workaday world." -Theodore Roosevelt
It's never too early or too late to do AG. It's just a matter of feeling comfortable with the extra steps.
After a couple years of partial mashes, BIAB style, I bought the Basic Brewing: Stepping Into All Grain DVD. Watched it. Thought it was too complicated. Didn't feel comfortable trying it.
A couple years later, I watched it again and thought, "This isn't hard. It's like making bagels. None of the steps is that tough, there are just lots and lots of easy steps."
So I went for it.
AG is as easy as BIAB in 1 pot, if you want to make it simple, its no harder than brewing a extract, just adds 1/2hr to 1 hr of time, and yes it can be that simple.

The New Berlin Marlins beat Wauwatosa West, 113-70, on Jan. 23 at New Berlin West and then finished fourth out of 10 teams at the Bob White Invitational on Saturday at Wauwatosa West.
The Marlins earned 10 first-place finishes, including three relays and two double individual winners, in the Woodland Conference win over Tosa West to begin the week.
Zach Solie won the 200-yard freestyle in 1 minute, 54.49 seconds and the 100 free in 51.22. Matthew Olenchek captured the 100 butterfly (58.14) and the 100 breaststroke (1:08.47).
Jackson Wannamaker won the 500 free (5:23.38) and was second in the 50 free (24.96) and Taylor Petrauski won the 200 backstroke (56.35) and was second in the Petrauski in 200 individual medley (2:14.57).
Zach Stoltenburg was the other individual winner in the 1-meter diving with 157.95 points.
The 200 medley relay of Petrauski, Olenchek, Sam Nigbur and Stoltenburg (1:47.46); the 400 free of Solie, Petrauski, Wannamaker and Olenchek (3:30.86) and the 200 free relay of Solie, Stoltenburg, Nigbur and Wannamaker (1:37.47) were the other winners.
"It is always helpful to earn a win at the end of the season" Marlins coach Becky Young said. "Hopefully we can use this momentum as the end of the season approaches."
Brookfield won the Bob White Invite on Saturday with 476 points, finishing ahead of Waukesha North/Kettle Moraine (347.5), Greenfield/Greendale (291) and the Marlins (251).

I've never liked the paper mario games but this one looks awesome. I can even remember the old N64 commercials with the logo on paper on a stick that marches around.
