Just use one of the new-fangled bulbs the gov't is "forcing" on us LOL

Seriously - we put 3 LEDs in to replace HOT halogens over the kitchen sink. The LEDs cost $26 EACH - YIKES! - but are supposed to last for 27 years! And they use almost NO electricty compared to incandescent.

I even put CFL bulbs in the bath fixtures and in the ceiling fan in the sewing room this summer to help keep cool.

Sorry for the hijack! I love the lampshade!!!

Ohhh, just went back up for another peek and saw your avatar. Could you please overnight us that salmon? LOL
I went here for my 50th (at my request):
