Home truths - Winter warmer
During summer we look outward from our homes and include the garden and outdoor living spaces in our lifestyle as much as possible. This often means that our scheme is simple, uncluttered, light and airy, making the most of the sun and summer light. However, in winter we turn to the interior of our homes and try to shut out the dark and cold. We tend to go out less and our homes really need to become our haven. For many, the contrast between the wild and wet weather outside and the warmth of interior spaces is what winter is all about. Comfort really is the catchphrase for winter living. We tend to be more indulgent and often less disciplined. Therefore the idea is to create the feel of smaller more intimate spaces where we can snuggle in for the night or relax during the weekend with a book.

THINGAMAJIGS: A weekly look at stuff you can buy
People are really hot for the movie 300 right now; some have even started the grueling Spartan training regimen from the film. Instead, try Black & Decker's new cordless cultivator, the perfect weapon for a green-thumbed warrior. The cultivator ($99.99) features hardened steel tines that dig into the soil to yank weeds or loosen dirt. Also, the tines counter-oscillate, preventing weeds from tangling. The cultivator is one of several in B&D's huge line of tools that use the sweet 18-volt interchangeable battery system. Visit www.blackanddecker.com. Clean green Go green with Second Nature, a line of environmentally safe, non-toxic, biodegradable cleaning solutions.
