I do like that idea of a strict budget. At least it brings some reality to it. I love these huge makeovers where they knock walls down and buy all new furniture and bedding and lighting and flooring. And then are like - Hey!! You can do this, too! By yourself! At home! Despite the fact that we had a crew of 50 highly-skilled men and women and an unlimited amount of money!! Or worse, the ones that tell you that you can completely redecorate with one twist-tie and an old tablecloth. I actually watched Martha Stewart once make spun-sugar Christmas trees. You know how to do that? You carmelize the sugar and then FLING it. Imagine doing THAT in your new kitchen!

Oh, and to make sure that this post says something about Sports - Derek Jeter is really cute.
