IF you can find them anywhere, Rivolta Carmignati cotton sheets made in Italy are the crispest, lightest sheets I've ever found. And I found them in a bin in a thriftstore! An entire bin filled with these sheets. I had no idea what they were; if I had, I've have bought the entire bin at $1 each. I bought several flat sheets and a duvet to die for. Not until later, when I found a tag and looked it up, did I realize what they are. Other than these, I have Ralph Lauren and Thomas O'Brien, all cotton that I really like, but they really don't compare to the Italian cotton. Here is a link that might be useful: Rivolta Carmignati

Cawaps, In the case of the magazine pop-up, it wanted a mailing address not just an email. I could provide a fake one but I wouldn't want to trouble the post office to try to deliver or to burden a real address with being hassled by the magazine with the inevitable 1,000 offers to continue to subscribe. I just moved on to another recipe site. Months ago, I used an online service to get off a few catalog mailing lists. One catalog site required an email address so the opt-out service created a dummy email address for me to use. I'm not sure how that company had my home address, my SIL handed us a gift basket, they didn't ship to us. She must have provided it to them for some reason I can't imagine. Since opting out with the fake email, the catalogs have, thankfully, stopped. terriks, you still out there or has the pop-up ad driven you away?

Josephene, Folks wanting to swap will want more specifics than "Christmas/Easter or whatever cactus". If you post a pic, we can tell you which it is. For instance, I'd be interested in swapping for some of the Easter cactus, but not the Thanksgiving & less so the Xmas. I've got Ceropegia woodii to spare & some Aloes (likely Jucunda or Juvenna). Tsuga, Thx for posting that link, helpful of you & kind.

I have a 30” Bluestar electric wall oven, drop down door, stainless, version 1. It never worked. Turns out it was wired incorrectly from the factory. After replacing all the electronics twice, and 5 months with no oven, BS refunded me and told me to do what I wanted with the oven. I was keeping it for parts for my next oven (just in case), but the version 2 has a different sized electrical panel/knobs, and even door. If you need any parts, let me know. I have them!
