Q:I'm working on decorating my apartment bit by bit and I've come to where I want to get a living room rug. The room is about 12x15ft so everything is rather close together. All the walls are beige/off-white and so is the couch in the middle of the room. Each of the pieces of furniture (desk, side table, coffee table, tv stand) are a dark wood, and so is the wood floor, and the main color accents in the room are red, orange, yellow, olive green, and blue-green, with some colorful art I've been making for the walls. Basically, every color that has red or yellow in it.

A neutral color such as cream or such. A dark rug will make the room look smaller. A light rug will blend into the floor! So, I suggest that you keep it simple and neutral.

Q:What is considered a garden home? in reviewing condo's for sale, in multi-unit buildings, they use quot;garden homequot; as a description. Is that a ground floor unit? does anyone know? thank you.

Assuming vines would be allowed to sprawl or could be adequately supported I would plant winter squash and lima beans around the edges and, between them, a row of parsnips or sweet potatoes. For my winter crops I would plant a few collards, some turnips and some rutabagas, maybe some beets and either kale or kohlrabi in the tomato patch. Other than the kale and collards these can be stored for later use. If there is a freezer or the ability to can produce even they could be stored. Good luck and enjoy!

Q:I need cottonseed meal for my garden.

Home garden stores should carry it. Also health food stores.

Q:I heard a while back that weeds actually end up helping other plants grow because they die and become a fertilizer. I recently tried to look more into this, and all I can find is a bunch of gardening sites talking about how to control/kill weeds. I realize that weeds are probably bad in home gardens, etc.. I am wondering if they serve a role in forests or something of that nature.

it all depends on the weed, if its something like grasses (excluding bamboos) because they can only grow so high they are fine whereas if they are an agressive weed they are not good for natural flora

Q:The Statistical Abstract of the United States gives the median size of a home garden as 663 square feet.

The government compliles statistics, numerical data, on how people live and a 663 sq ft garden is at the 50th percentile, half have larger gardens, half smaller.

Q:Do you think this house is one of those modular homes with an addition?

It takes six seconds for the Y.A. page to load for me to be able to click on the [add your answer] box. thus, is my laptop slow?

Q:For the past year my home has smelled like honey, I thought it may have been my brother smelling that way since he is diabetic and spends A lot of time there however it seems his diabetes is in check and he keeps his glucose levels normal. I then thought it could be my dog, she is 12 and has trouble controlling her bladder, had her checked out..she is fine. I'm not diabetic either. So i noticed i have a lot of bees out in the shed about a 100 ft away, they look like large bumblebees not honey bees. I didn't hear any buzzing in the wall, but just this honey sweet smell, it smells like someone has dumped a container of honey over and let it set, but this has been going on for a year now. Any ideas would be wonderful.

Since you asked for home and garden, there can be many flowers that smell like honey. Try a spot a few flowers where the smell's the strongest, that could be it. Also, not all bees produce honey and they tend to find a more secluded area to inhibit, so those bees you see are probably just wasps.

Q:I got an ad in the mail for EarthBox and they look interesting, but maybe a little too good to be true. Do they really work well enough to be worth the cost? Also, they say you don't have to use a pesticide with them but I can't see how the box prevents bugs from being attracted to your plants.

They are amazing, my best friend had one last year and filled it with tomatos. I had the traditional garden and placed 6 tomato plants and maybe got one tomato. She had more tomatos than she knew what to do with. I would go over to her house and pick them. I don't know about other veggies but I think it should be the same. She loved the earthbox so much that she gave them as gifts this year. I sound like an ad for this company....

Q:I was just looking through my better homes and gardens new cookbook and found that the page with fruit cobbler is missing!!! Any one else have the book that could give me the recipe? I'd like the recipe for the peach filled cobbler. I've already looked online. Thanks!!!

You definately ought to apply bananas in a cobbler, yet i'm uncertain in case you may prefer to. while cooked, bananas turn soft.. extra advantageous end result for a cobbler are those which carry their shape while cooked (apples, pears and so on). My suggestion is to make an apple cobbler with small chunks of banana interior as nicely.. that way youll get the banana flavour yet itll carry its shape as nicely.
