Yes, your not supposed to wash the down blanket so you put it in a washable cover instead. I was just washing and drying mine anyway, but then the feathers started leaking out of it and going up my nose. That's why I pulled out that damn duvet cover before I ruin my down blanket. It's really comfortable and stays nice and cool at night, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.

Pottery Barn wants almost $100 for one of the wreaths I want. Screw that. I swiped their idea and made my own with stuff I already had. Cluck Cluck Cluck.

Now I remember why I stopped using it and buried it in the back of the closet 5 years ago.
You're fucking kidding, right? I'm a dude and it took me two minutes to work out a way to do it, and keep it there. My doona cost a small fortune, I change the cover with the sheets to keep it clean and fresh.

I found a video of a homosexual guy showing how to do it properly. You turn the cover inside out with your hands at each corner, grab the duvet by each corner, then flip the cover over it. The cover slides down perfectly over it. 2 minutes tops. I can post the video for you Duchess if you'd like to start using your duvet again.
Or you could just have gay ass Crash come over and do it for you.

I was thinking one of the bitches you hook up with could do it. But I suppose you're right, even Martha Stewart would tell you to go to hell if you asked her to do that.

Ramsey is painting her kitchen. Love the color, Ramsey. I think it's a bold choice. I say that because I tend to be a bit conservative and stick to earth tones. I'm amused because I think that color is just like MF's dining room. Heh.

I'm thinking about sheer curtains for my pergola. I'm not sure if this is a real idea or a symptom of cabin fever.

50⁄ 50 chance it was a super cute toddler or stupid husband.
My husband was freaking out the other day over some rugby gear that he had ordered (and was supposedly still in the box) missing. Usually I know exactly where every thing is but he stumped me on that one. I'm not sure which irritated him more; the fact that he couldn't find it or the fact that I couldn't immediately locate it as per usual. Whatevah.
