Glass or Metal: Does It Really Matter?
If the recipe doesn't specify, does it matter if I bake brownies in a glass pan instead of metal? Should I adjust the temperature listed on the recipe or do anything differently? I don't want them to burn (or be undercooked) but I also don't want to go out and buy a smaller metal pan, if I can help it.Peepshow Shot glasses

Mercury Glass Mantel
My aunt, who is an interior designer, used mercury glass votives to dress up the fireplace mantel in one of her client's homes. She chose varying sizes and colors, and arrange several at each end of the mantel to give it balance. I like how the right side has more votives — it keeps it from looking too matchy-matchy.

Autumn Gems
Topaz and citrine are the birthstones of the month of November. No wonder they make me think fall. Let's also take a look at another warm stone: smoky quartz. What exactly is the difference between these semi precious stones? It can get tricky, but here goes...
Yellow or golden quartz is called citrine. Brownish yellow quartz may be called champagne citrine and bright pumpkin orange to dark orangish red in color usually go by the name madeira citrine. But the skinny is this, citrine is quartz which is warm toned (ie: yellow, orange, brown, red) For comparison, amethyst is purple quartz. Quartz is a common stone with a hardness of 7. It occurs naturally in many, many colors and may be treated to change its color too. Various quartz crystals can form together (usually amethyst or smoky and citrine) to form bi-colored quartz.
The Air Jordan 2010 Unveiled

They don’t have a name like their regular season counterpart, the ‘Taxi’ and there’s no single moment of dominance they symbolize like the ‘Flu Game’, nor any controversy in their release like the also white ‘Rising Sun’.
