This video popped up on my feed.
The plan is so well thought out, and I am envious of all the details.
Especially the windows over the sink!!

Glad you guys enjoyed that.
Judith, I remember those pamphlets. So helpful, unlike what we get now.
I had this one pop up today, it looks hilarious, but I haven't had a chance to watch the whole thing. Almost like a sitcom episode, and it features Margaret Hamilton, who played Mrs Gulch/ Wicked Witch on Wizard of Oz.

The government used to do a lot of helpful things for us citizen/consumers. I remember my parents having a stack of pamphlets from the government printing office about all kinds of things -- building chicken coops, planting vegetables, child care, canning, etc, etc. I still have a couple of them; one is how to cure olives. Maybe someday I will try it.

Lisa, I watched this video and it was just awesome!! Thank-you so much for sharing it too. I would love to have that kitchen shown in the example because I love how perfectly everything was thought out for efficient cooking. The way it was laid out and storage was provided just made perfect sense to me. I plan to watch it again and take notes because I think I might be able to make a few changes in my own kitchen that would be useful.
Sara, I thought about the Hoosier too when I watched the video. My Grandmother had one in her old farmhouse and I always loved it. Today, I would still consider owning one because I just love the vintage feel of them and also their convenience to cooking. I make things like breads, pies, and cookies for special occasions, and Hoosier would eliminate my having to take the flour, sugar, handspikes down from shelves every time I need them for a recipe.
Thanks again Lisa for this great video!

WOW!! That was one organized kitchen !! I actually loved a lot of it. Talk about a place for everything. I think that design was brilliant. I liked the organization of it. I loved the stove. Talk about top of the line for everything. My mom would of been in total heavan in that kitchen! I think I will borrow some of the storage idea from it. Thanks Lisa I really enjoyed that so much.

The baking center reminds me of Hoosier cabinets. If I had room in my kitchen I could set a Hoosier cabinet right in and have an up-to-date 19th century baking center. I'm not a baker but I've always wanted a Hoosier cabinet with flour and smaller bins.

All of the retro furniture too!
I just wished the lady would have smiled a few times. She looked SO serious. Until mealtime. Was that a jello dessert? LOL |

Oh my Lisa, I want one of those. Love all the handy tips and storage bins. And it made me start thinking on how I can arrange my kitchen to better suit how I do things. Some of the things I already do but there's so much more I can do. I saved it to my desktop so I can watch it over and over again.
