I love Muji, but yet the furniture is higher quality and better design than most by the same prices on other stores, the clothes and textiles are ridiculously expensive. Muji has about three emblematic colors and plaid designs they use and reuse in all of their textiles and clothes, making…

I also heard that margarine is worse for you than butter.

Butter makes my potato puree marvelous. It adds magic to my guacamole, and tastiness to my homemade tomato salsas. I make wonderful garlic butter, adding herbs, garlic and a dash of salt. Butter goes well with pancakes. It brings…

Tied up? Maybe it's a murder-suicide. If it were a suicide pact, why would the ropes be needed? Perhaps one of the two had an obsession over the other, fangirl style. The crazy one was the one grabbing the hand of her victim, maybe. Then a suicide note to cover…
