I think it's all part and parcel.

I remember a house guest swearing our last house was haunted - he was totally convinced of it because the house was more than 10 minutes old and he 'felt something'. Nutjob.

Casa del Lumberjinx looks like it could be haunted, I must admit, and all those "In case of spousal insanity break glass" boxes are a tip off too.

No not this house, our last one, about 100 years younger than this one.

I could totally see this one being haunted. It's old (almost 200), it was a doctor's home/office so people might have died here, I let people sprinkle a dead guy's ashes in the yard because he lived here as a kid, and most creepy; we found a bone under the floor in the attic of the human variety.
But it's not.

Mine is, but the old lady doesn't eat anything, and she doesn't bother me, so I don't make her pay rent.

I'm sure we once had a What's In Your Fridge thing going, but I can't find it.
Oh, maybe that was when MTV Cribs came round.

Anyway, here is mine in the hope other people will reciprocate.
It's not quite as personal as a house tour, but we'll get to hear your voice and see your food after all. Oh and you can always fridge'clean beforehand. I didn't, but I blame everything on the 'rents anyway.

Oops, just realised I identified Boursin as soft cream. It's not, it's cream cheese (with garlic and herbs). Probably why I tried to say garlic for the gherkin relish.

Also, I missed the salad drawer underneath.
And we don't keep fruit in the fridge (apart from berries).
So we're not as unhealthy as we look!

Hey cool, I just got a letter from the historic commission saying we're getting a plaque for the front of the house.
"You are the owner of one of the 24 most historic buildings in our town, built between 1740 and 1860." So we get a plaque. For free even. Cool.

Cool. Did George Washington ever sleep there?
