RECIPE: Why Are My Eggs Grey When I Hard-Boil Them??
Comments (8)For discussion sake, below is the link for the thread on steamed eggs. It seems elphaba (sorry, couldn't resist the green font) is the enthusiast for this method. It would be nice if the OP would come back and let us know how her method differs. I agree with Daisy - may be too much time. I boil for three minutes, take off heat and cover for nine, so about the same time as Ginger et al. I also poke two holes in the flatter end with a safety pin to let the air out.

Comments (35)debi_2006, good point about the glass shade, I definitely don't want to be cleaning it constantly. LucyStar1-If you are still interested, it is the Cali Bronzed Chandelier from Ethan Allen. mamorella- The light looks beautiful in your space, it is very classy looking. Thanks! aktillery-Thanks for the photoshop, that light does look nice there. Errant/kitschyKitch- thanks, I will look into having a can light put there. We were going to have to hire someone to replace the light fixture as my husband is terrified of anything electrical....See MoreWhy is it so hard to decide on window treatments?
Comments (4)While I don't have shears with a print on them, we do have the set up that My3dogs describes.. I tend to be more practical in my approach and these fit the bill for what we needed. I appreciate how the shears can soften a room as well as provide privacy and filter light (without making the room uncomfortably dark). In response to your question though, you are probaby having a hard time because you haven't found anything that you love and know you could live with for a long time. Keep looking and you will know it when you find them....See Morechoosing floor stain... why so hard?? HELP!
Comments (10)Avoiding yellow and red undertones with Red Oak will be like trying to avoid a sun burn while living in Nevada. It can be done but it takes a boat load of work to do it! Red Oak naturally has cinnamon tones (a little pinky-reddish/brown) in a natural finish. There are plenty of stains out there that have a greenish undertone that will hide the red/brown in Red Oak. If you don't like Coffee Brown (and it will turn a dark "mid-tone") then you better tell him to stop. If you area has ++ people who like the darker stains, then you are probably in a more traditional area. If you like transitional, then look for something that is 1 step darker than the Red Oak's natural shade. Coffee Brown is NOT that type of "light" stain. The problem will come when you want to get rid of the reddish tones. You often times need to go a little darker to get rid of the red. Not always....but quite often. Look for "green" in the colour. That will be the thing that kills the red. And remember: stain charts are made up using white oak...because it takes stain "better" than red oak. So whatever you choose, make sure you get a test patch on your floor with a coat of your finish. And then watch it change throughout the day. Yes...you will literally watch the paint dry for an entire day on this one....See MoreRelated Professionals
