Candy doesn't count as empty calories if it comes in cute tins.
Reproductions of toys once popular in Taiwan and a card deck with vintage cartoon illustrations
your shelves look so fun and colorful! i love the print you made of your fam, and i LOVE seeing all the toys and candy boxes (i have tons of the same on my shelves too :). and you are right- if it's candy in a tin, there are 0 calories. ~joelle
Jenny-I thought it was worth reading, but a bit polemical and dated in certain parts. It did make me rethink how I look at certain periods of art, however. I also highly recommend Design as Art by Bruno Munari, which I bought at the same time.
I own Ways of Seeing by John Berger too! Have you read it? I was thinking of starting it just today.
