LifestreamThe other Cylinda fridge thermostat failed just the other day. Amazing lack of quality really. Thanks to environment-friendly practises and cheapskating corporations, the average life expectancy for a thermostat these days is about 5-6 years or so. Pretty unimpressive.

How dumb do you have to be to actually plan a shower in a corner with a steep angle? Well, I apparently did. Or that is to say, I didn’t pay attention when the house was planned and built and shit obviously happened. As it stands, this is one of the most obvious problems I’ve [...]
Spent the afternoon scouting a new kitchen table. Not much has happened since last time and I’m still searching for the holy Grail of kitchen tables in terms of design and price.

No kitchen should go without ballers and zesters. Also, I got some more kitchen utensils. New glasses and that kind of thing. Too bad I forgot [...]
I was looking through some new furniture catalogues a couple of weeks ago and found this kitchen table that looked interesting. Actually the best so far. Love at first sight. The only real downside was the price (who would have guessed). And the chairs didn’t really match the audacious design of the table. Plus the [...]
