[loosens belt] No more fruit for me, thanks. Three bowls is my absolute limit. It was really delicious, though. :D

A hair treatment by any other name would smell as bad. :P

SO many warring patterns and directions. I think I need some decaf so my eyes will stop twitching. From the May issue of Better Living magazine. (Originally posted to flickr on February 3rd, 2011.)

"I'll keep fracking my way back to yooooou, Babe, with a shriveled rose insiiiide..." From the May issue of Parents magazine.

Yes, you too can be fake, stiff, and coated in plastic! Just like this flower! From the February Good Housekeeping magazine.

I don't know any of these works, but I could probably manage a few bars of "Old MacDonald's Farm" if you give me a couple of minutes. :o

"Beautiful Sunken Rose Garden, Lambert Gardens, Portland, Oregon." "Selithco True Color from Ektachrome." Slightly enlarged to show detail. Looks to be a more recent view from the other side of postcard no. 746, which you can see in this album .

"...... what's more the papers are full of reports of blancmanges appearing on tennis courts up and down the country - practising. This can only mean one thing!..." From Good Housekeeping's Picture Cookery book.

My possessions are sterling, so my mate doesn't have to be! From National Geographic magazine.

Welcome to the latest installment of "Throw Any Random Crap In A Big Dish And Call It 'Dinner'."

I can't tell you the precise date this fold-out was printed. I've driven or bused by the gardens' one-time locale a million times, but never saw them. They were torn down in 1968, twenty years before I ever set foot on the West Coast. Apartment buildings are in the space now. You can read a newspaper piece about Lambert and its founder (and see more pics) at: johnrsweet.com/David/andrewlambert.html

Looks like the gardens have some fans on flickr , too.

Back cover. Some of the roses listed inside: Climbers ("Caroline Testout", "Red Radiance"), Baby Ramblers ("Golden Baby", "Ellen Paulson"), and Hybrid Teas ("Francis Scott Key", "Duchess of Wellington"). They would run you from about 25 cents to $1.35 for a single plant,

And it doubles as a kicky chapeau! From the July issue of Sunset magazine.

Anything can go in a jar! Fried fish, rabbit, chicken a la king, and... French Lamb Ragout! No lie. It's right there on Page 51.

Other "Salad Meal" recipes: Pear and Cottage Cheese Salad, Mexican Salad (see back cover. It's basically cole slaw with pimento added), Tuna Fish Mousse with Asparagus, Chicken Ham Roll, Currant Frost, and Vegetable Custard Pudding. The maid's sour expression makes perfect sense, doesn't it?

"Samplers have been symbols of home for hundreds of years. Many a young girl has had her first sewing lesson by filling in a sampler pattern, and often these works of household art have been passed on from generation to generation, becoming cherished heirlooms. Many samplers have become collectors' items..." What? I can't believe there's no beer bottles strewn amongst the roses. On the other hand, they were a bargain at $1 each, or four for $3. (With everything included except the frame.) From the September issue of Family Circle magazine.

"But, Darling, you know I can't possibly eat all these flowers at once! They'll go straight to my hips!" From the February issue of Good Housekeeping.
