emckee I've always been timid of using colors (bright or not) in my home. Recently though, my fiancee and I bought our new house and the house has 9 or 10 foot ceilings and we're working with 2564 square foot of home. I am working on a surprise "Husker Lounge" for my...

This is a very straight forward discussion. I'd like to know what color you think looks the worst on you, and why you think that way. I doubt anyone looks horrid in a specific color, but they just may not look their best. I don't...

emckee When I was born, I was born with jaundice and my grandmother said I would never look good in yellow. I'm not that cheery of a girl that I would wear yellow that much, but it can work if I pull it off right. Of course, I no longer have jaundice, but I do have...

emckee Aww, you've seen the Mayan ruins?! I am so pouting right now. If I could only choose one continent to visit extensively, it would be hard to choose, but it'd either be South America or Europe. Thank you for visiting my site! I have tons of updates to do. My...

emckee I agree with Mekena....it really seems once a new child has entered the family, the things you usually like to shoot fly out the window for quite some time. WIth that said though, I am a recent photography grad and I LOVE photography, it is my life. :p It...

emckee Cool! I "had been" sobber since 2002 until just lately. I fell off the wagon and into a giant wine barrel. Well, it's not that serious. It started back up one Valentine's Day when my fiance and I decided to indulge in 2 glasses each. (He was sober going on his...

How long does it take your household to go through a gallon of milk? I don't drink milk because it upsets my tummy but I'm a cereal freak so my fiance and I go through about a 1/2 gallon per week. That's probably the least amount...

emckee You've got to be kidding! Dang. See??! What is it with men & milk? It seems us women just aren't that interested in it. Maybe it's something Freudian? LOL

emckee Tehehee, ya know? Looking at the photo and having an art background, IF IT WERE ME (I'm just saying!), I would go with a real soft shade of blue as my paint choice in there. I tell you why: Blue gives us a false sense of cool and kitchens are usually quite...

emckee Oh! See? Now that paneling is not that bad. It's looks like a good quality real wood. Although it would make the room even smaller, I, myself, would prefer a darker stain is all. Your stove is COOL! We ought to swap photos back and forth as we go along....
