We don’t have a cat (Jasper would oppose), but if we did we would most definitely own a Modkat litter box.
ModKat took home the Editor’s Award for Best Accessory at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) and for good reason. ModKat goes into production in June and will available for sale in late August.

Is it just us or has Swine Flu got you thinking about all the things you’d rather not touch? For instance, to avoid turning on a kitchen faucet with dirty hands, requiring us to clean the handle later on, would be nice.

Clean+istry dislikes cleaning bathroom tile, and the grout in between, after it has become dirty and discolored. The task is difficult and the results rarely satisfy. Of course [...]
And now for our earth day guilt trip. Did you know that it takes an average of 27 gallons of water to wash a load of dishes by hand but only 5 gallons to wash the same size load in a modern dishwasher?
