Contest time is here with Philips Lighting!

Lighting is my #1 thing in design. A well illuminated space makes the difference between good design and bad design. So for our first contest of the the month it only seems fitting that I would team up with Philips Lighting, a leader in energy efficient and sustainable technology.
How to enter
Go to my AOL Living/GMC Trade Secrets and answer the question below. Once you have your answer email it HERE to register to win a $100 American Express Gift Card from Philips Lighting.
In my AOL Living/GMC Trade Secrets I talk specifically about lighting in a few of my segments. In one segment I talk about recessed lighting. What is the name of the recessed lighting I mention you use when you DO NOT have access to your attic?
One entry per person please. Contest ends Sunday, August 9th, 2009. Winner will be announced on Tuesday, August 11th, 2009. Winner will be picked at random.

Attention All Renters! Plant a garden on your balcony!
Just moving from Chicago where we had an apartment with a balcony, I was always jealous of the people with the yards and the gardens. I wanted to be “that girl”. Made of 100% post-consumer recycled high density polyethylene is the Food Map Container. This thing rocks and now gives renters the opportunity to have their very own farmers market on their balcony. When it gets cold outside, roll it inside. I pulled these from www.foodmapdesign.com. How awesome is this?
