[Highland Park] free couch
by Rachel Kirby 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

My husband and I have a couch that we've tired of and replaced, and now need to get out of our house. It's still in fairly decent condition, though, so I thought I'd see if anyone here would be interested in taking it off our hands before my husband sawzalls it to pieces and we put it out with the trash. It's a beige overstuffed dual-recliner. It's fairly comfy and in decent shape, though there's a tear on one corner under an arm. It does not come apart and is very heavy (~200lbs), so anyone interested in taking it will probably need to show up with a truck and preferably one or two strong people (my husband can help move it out of our house, but it's still probably easier with three people). A couple of pictures are available here: http://picasaweb.google.com/102175532928433187391/Couch# If possible, I'd love to have it gone this weekend! -- Rachel

[Highland Park] free curtain rods
by Stephanie Walsh 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

I have two pairs of metal curtain rods. You are welcome to either or both. They are white painted metal, the kind that slide to different widths. One pair is a minimum of 45", a max of 84". The other pair is a minimum of 26" and a max of 47". I don't have the mounting hardware, but I'd imagine that's easy to pick up at a store. Stephanie

[Highland Park] inquire about renting for one month
by Constanza Ehrenhaus 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

Hi! My parents are planning to come over to visit for a month in May and they have stated several times that they would rather stay in a small apartment on their own instead of in our small apartment, even if just to sleep. I was wondering if you know if there is anything like a small apartment (or rooms?), furnished, to rent for one month and what the prices would be. Thanks a lot! Coty.-

by Lydia Blank 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

Hi neighbors... I need a filing cabinet and a small book shelf for my home office. I'm looking for either a 2 drawer lateral filing cabinet or a 2 or 4 drawer vertical one... And ideally the bookshelf would be white with adjustable shelves...not sure of the dimensions I need exactly, but if you have something I'll figure it out then.... Anyone have something that will work? If so, let me know how much $$ you'd like in return. Thanks! Lydia

Warm cider is a great treat during these cold weather spells.I also want to let everyone know that Kistaco Farm carries a wide variety of bulk grains.  You may not notice them because they sit on the shelves behind all the beautiful fresh fruit and vegetables.  Tim buys them in bulk and repackages them for sale at the market.  These are very wholesome and healthy items and are sold at very reasonable prices.  Items include:* Rice (brown, red and of course white)* Harvest soup mix* Wheat bran* White flour* Oats (rolled and steel cut)* Rolled 7 grain* Quick oats* Corn meal (yellow and white)* Bulgar wheat* Unrefined sugar* Popcorn (blue and white)* Black sun seeds* Flax seed********************************************************** Please visit our website.  You can sign up for a weekly email update.  http://www.farmersmarketcooperativeofeastliberty.com/ Don't let the cold weather make you hibernate.
