why do people still persist with the notion that gloves decrease the chance of passing on pathogens in food service. drives me nuts and just makes me think of macdonalds

how about plantation shutters where you paint the border of the shutter a contrasting colour. and consider hiding the tv cables

limecake - you can get steel cut oats in australia. i bought mine at 'about life' in rozelle/balmain. and i would be willing to bet that you can get them at other health food style stores

i disagree about the relationship with 'keep calm' posters. i think that if you have a replica roll or even those screened canvases then, yes it's definitely old hat, but an original scroll is still a great addition to an industrial aesthetic.

In the maternity unit where i work, in Australia we have recently been reading Amnesty Internationals damning report on maternity care in the USA and i can tell you it is sad, sober reading.

Neither of our countries is doing the right thing by pregnant women and it really needs to change. Working at the coal face i can tell you that the single biggest problem is with choice (or the illusion of choice) and informed consent. Too many women and their families are being bullied into procedures that are convenient for the hospital and the doctors but are a complete fiction not at all based on evidence. One such issue is the outright shaming of home birth mothers as not being as interested in their baby's health and well being as they are for their goal of a home birth which is a logical fallacy, it is because they are deeply invested in good outcomes that they choose this mode of birth. The second outrage is the c-section rate, the WHO quotes that a rate over 14% in developed countries is associated with an increase in maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. So in australia with 35% and the USA with around 30% we are literally doing more harm than good.

blue eye is right though as fun an inviting as the layout is the covered and enclosed pantry is that way for a purpose. this would work in a commercial kitchen cafe but this domestic situation means the inhabitants would never get through the food fast enough

you have to live with it and how often do you get free and creative liberty with a piece of mm furniture, i think the greater shame/sin here is painting it glossy white!

on a modern sideboard put down a tray and arrange the glasses maybe with a bottle or two of your preferred tipple. having them on a tray creates the illusion of order and is practical for serving later. having the glasses out may encourage you to use them more also

Soup!

So far i've made the zucchini and garlic soup, the African groundnut soup and i'm just about to make a potato, leek and broccoli soup. It's cold and rainy in Sydney today...

yeah, the prices in the store are quite steep. i like going there to get ideas then looking for similar items on ebay, and if i can't find it then buying from them occasionally.

Also the store is DavidMetNicole with the words run together.
