Digest 4.17.15

Friday, April 17, 2015

I must have my finger on the pulse of the moment: My posts about trying to eat on $4/day budget were published just before The Food Bank For New York launched their #FoodBankNYCChallenge, which asked people to try to eat on a $29/week budget and share their experience on social media. Gwenyth Paltrow has been skewered for her Twitter post about the challenge, but I applaud her for trying to raise awareness for a great charity.

Here's how goop cooked with a $29 for the week.

The prettiest tiny homes yet!

Recycle your old jeans and get $20 off a new pair.

Even Martha Stewart is on the KonMari bandwagon.

A sign of the changing times. 

The slow death of the home-cooked meal--let's reverse this trend, shall we?

A culinary technique I'm dying to try.

How to eat more whole grains.

A piece I wrote for Curbed.com on midcentury modernist design.
