blogwatch: where we were clicking this week

Not that we’re obsessed with ReadyMade, but this week Amy is giving up processed foods, and the poster she used to illustrate her post caught our eye. It’s a 1914 FDA poster found via The Art of Food, and we want to buy it right now.
We are, however, obsessed with before-and-after photos. If you are too, you’ll enjoy Country Living’s September issue, which is all about the makeovers.
House Calls at iVillage is the latest place to discuss raising chickens.
Embroidering on metal — why not? — at Sublime Stitching.
CakeSpy has the Little Debbie Death Match — now you can find out exactly how well those enduring treats will endure.
We love a good repurposing, like corrugated metal siding as a fence, at Casa Sugar.
Small, stylish houses, and some interesting questions on the origins of style, at Cote de Texas.
A bathroom beautiful enough to hang out in at Shelterpop. So jealous.




Wait, why isn’t that poster for sale somewhere? It needs to be in my kitchen, stat! Oh, and yay to her for giving up processed foods. I’m working on something similar myself, although it takes some time.
Seriously! I NEED this poster. It’s how I live. AND it would look cute in my kitchen!
I love that poster! I already have a spot picked out for it in my kitchen! We need to find it!
Timeless!
