I really do like this idea as I have tried to have a worn bin in buckets layered on the cheap just to try it out and this is worth it - I believe. It is a little expensive, but it will save me time and should drain better than buckets or containers and get rid of the odor that can build up. This item is pretty durable and easy to assemble. I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend this to gardeners to give their plants an extra boost of worm compost, while not wasting good food scraps.
Great bins for a small amount of compost. If you produce a lot of compost, like my wife and I you can quickly outstrip the basic setup. We had to expand. Good quality and works as advertised. Pros: Easy to assemble, good quality Cons: Basic set is not large enough.
A great value compared to other websites for the same exact product Pros: Just as pictured Cons: None

I love Valentine's Day! After Christmas, it's my second favorite holiday. It's not for the overpriced flowers, the sparkly jewelry, or the super cheesy commercials peddling sappy love stories. No, I love it for the reds and deep pinks and other rosy tones. I love the over-saturation of hearts, hearts, and more hearts! The adorable love puns, the doodles of little animals holding hearts, the encouragement to share little cards with friends. It's all good in my opinion. Below I've collected 30, yes, 30 Valentine DIYs. Try one, try them all, and share the love.
Yes, you can just buy a card at the local drugstore and sign your name. Or you can make a one-of-a-kind love letter scroll (above middle). Choose wisely.
This is a project I've been doing since art class in elementary school, and I still adore the look. Melted crayons between wax paper creates bright, poppy colors that just shine in natural window light.
Pinatas are always fun and these conversation hearts (above right) are PERFECT for Valentine's Day. Just be careful with them; gently extract the candy and keep them forever.
Not every Valentine needs to include candy. Goldfish are a favorite around here and with this tutorial, you can wrap them up like to look like fish. Fun!
Arrrrrr you looking for adorable Valentines? These Valentine's rank very, very high on the cute-o-meter. Just download these darling illustrations and add some cute felt heart embellishments.
Even afternoon snacks can be filled with love. These ice cubes (left) made of milk, not water, are perfect for milk and cookies or as a sweet addition to your loved one's morning coffee.

I suspect there isn't a family around me that doesn't like tacos. Announce that it's "taco night" at my house, and you'd think the kids won the lottery. (If they could play the lottery, of course). I've learned that it's an easy way to make them happy, and since everyone has their own special science to assembling their perfect taco, that means less work for me. There's nothing better than putting a little taco bar in the middle of the dinner table and watching everyone work for their meal.
Once in a while, I make tacos just for me. I personally love tofu, and in a taco, it works really well. When I am lunching solo, I'll sometimes treat myself by piling on strips of marinated tofu into some shells and topping it with a fresh cucumber radish salsa.
Healthy, tasty, and in taco form? You bet. It's perfect after a work out, or if you just want to take a break from meat or fish. The best part, like with any taco, is that you can customize it any way you wish. There are no hard or fast rules when it comes to tacos, just what makes you happy.
TOFU TACOS
SERVES 4-6.
The best part of tacos is customizing it to your liking. Not a fan of tofu? No problem, use fish or chicken instead! Tomatoes in season? Toss some in your salsa. Make it cheesy, or not. Either way, tacos are a fun way to eat.
INGREDIENTS:
For the Cucumber Radish Salsa:
1/2 English cucumber, halved and thinly sliced
1/2 cup thinly sliced radishes
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
Juice of 1/2 lime
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
For the Tofu Seasoning:
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons hot smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
For the Tofu Tacos:
10 ounces extra firm tofu, drained and cut into 1/2 inch slices
Juice of 1 lime
2 garlic cloves, mashed
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Extra virgin olive oil
Taco Seasoning (I use this recipe , from Alton Brown)
Cucumber Radish Salsa
Taco shells, warmed
Micro Greens
Sliced Avocados
Sour cream
METHOD:
Make the Cucumber Radish Salsa: Combine the cucumber, radishes, jalapeno, lime juice, salt and pepper in a bowl. Let is sit while you prepare the tacos.
Make the Tofu Seasoning: Combine the spices in a bowl and whisk. Set aside.Make the Tofu Tacos: Place the sliced tofu in shallow platter. Combine the lime juice, garlic, paprika, salt and pepper in a little bowl and pour over the tofu. Let it sit for a few minutes. Drain and wipe with a paper towel. Season both sides of the tofu with the taco seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Cook the tofu slices on both sides until just browned. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into strips.Assemble the tacos by placing the tofu on the taco shells and garnish with the Cucumber Radish Sals, micro greens, slices of avocado, and a dab of sour cream. Serve immediately.
The house is spotless. We are ready. At this time tomorrow, the first wave of family will be arriving, filling our home with extra hugs and love and company. We have been preparing for weeks, with a final big push this weekend to scrub and polish and make cozy. If there’s anything other than the excitement of having house guests, it’s their arrival that forces you to deep clean the house like never before.
We should have house guests every week!
As we anticipate my mother in law’s arrival, followed by my sister and brother in law, the reality that the holidays are upon us are finally sinking in. The garland draping the shops and the holiday commercials all of a sudden feels right. Even my husband got a head start and the house is ready with lights hung. I may even start listening to Christmas music.
With a steady flow of visitors, these are the days when effortless meals mean the most. I may be spending extra time in the kitchen, but that doesn’t mean I need to tackle the most challenging of recipes. A toasty bowl of soup will do.
Today I’m sharing this incredible (if I say so myself) Toasted Almond Butternut Squash Soup on Wayfair.com. Can you taste the slivers of almonds I toasted in a peppery blend of spices, their nutty undertone mingled into each creamy spoonful of silky butternut squash? Whether you serve it for lunch or as the prelude to your Thanksgiving feast, it is sure to warm your tastebuds. And like all dishes I love, it is so easy, it leaves you more time for the ones you love.

In a different life, I would have been a professional organizer. I adore the process. I physically feel better when things are cleaned and set just right. Also, I collect storage bins and baskets. That alone is telling. :) But I love it. Even though I joke that I am and I’m certain my husband thinks I am, I’m not actually obsessive about it. Things get messy and out of place (every single day) and I continue to reset daily it to ease the functioning of our family. Since I’m fairly practiced and because it’s January, the annual observance of ‘get yourself together’, I’m here with a few tips to help you along.
Every item should have a place to live.
This is the biggest step. If it is in your house, it should have a designated place to be. (If it doesn’t have a place, get rid of it!) It is time consuming to figure out and might require a couple of rounds to get it just right but it is so worth it. It’s more challenging in the beginning, when you are new to a house or space but new furniture, children and even a new season might require adjustments and reorganizing. As our children grow and outgrow things and to keep up with the constant influx of junk, we are regularly on the lookout for ways to make our space function better. After Christmas (okay, a little before), we went through the toy room again to adjust the layout. I sewed new vinyl bags, one for each child, to enclose all those little things that now live with us. We organize in such a way that they have access to their things so they are able to do things for themselves. I love these corded baskets with handles.
There are those pieces that don’t fit in your house right now because of space or season or relevance. If they are essential to keep, just store them. Make good choices about what you are packing away and work to pack similar things together, pack them close and tight and label well.
Make things work for you
When you do find a place for everything to live, make sure it makes life better/easier for you. Put a basket near the couch to hold the remotes, facial tissues, pen and paper, anything else you use when you sit on the couch. Hang key hooks by the door leading to the car or set up a bowl to create a place where those keys belong. Store cleaning products together, get all the cooking utensils in one good-looking crock, put guest towels in or near the guest bathroom and put all those miscellaneous cords in one place because then when you are looking for that one cord for that one thing, you’ll know where it is. If you must keep old issues of magazines, drop them in a lidded box and a messy stack now looks sharp. I am from the camp where I don’t really want to see much of what I own. :) I like it to be put away; out of sight, out of mind. I am especially keen on these kitchen canisters.
If you have little ones, try putting their cups and dishes in a drawer or on a shelf they can reach. It will enable them to do things for themselves. Employ a low set of drawers, even plastic ones can work and look good, so they can be involved in getting dressed or putting away clothes. Set up a spot where children can shed outwear. We actually shifted our ‘staging area’ because the spot we wanted it to happen wasn’t working. We made the coat hooks low enough the children can hang their own coats and there is a place for gloves and hats and all those shoes. With children, the idea is not perfection but more containment.
Go through things often.
Take time to go through your belongings and get rid of outgrown, worn, broken, unused items. Spring and fall are good times to reevaluate, especially if you live in areas where the seasonal weather requires a different wardrobe. But any old time works in my book. Children are constantly growing so weeding out the nonessential will make great use of your space. Tear meaningful pages from magazines and toss the rest. Donate unread books. Reevaluate all those t-shirts from high school (MJ). We are constantly battling paper, including mail and school sheets. Toss junk mail and excess paper immediately; don’t let it pile up. The idea I like to keep in mind is streamline. Less stuff is less work.
Set a day during the week to recheck.
Like most good things, being organized requires maintenance. If you set a time to do it, it’s harder to forget. Put a reminder in your phone, write it in big letters on the calendar and circle it in red. It takes time and diligence. And if you need me, call me.
Like I said, I just kind of collect storage containers. I love all these woven baskets, storage for dishware and stemware and don’t get my started on trunks. I had the hardest time choosing just a few. However, if you are on the look out, here are some ideal pieces from Wayfair.
Have fun!
