Really nice window films. Unfortunately, I lost where I found that link.

I like these bins from Sprout Home which nicely reuse plastic shopping bags.

What's the deal with fang holes in my shirts? I had a similar problem and I assumed it had something to do with my granite kitchen countertop tugging at fabric when I would do dishes, later I found some sharp corners on the facing of a zipper of a hoodie I wore often. I'm still not sure what caused mine.

This weekend was spent doing errands and clearing out the blackberry behind our house. It's a big, old bush, and most of it is not on our property. But by cutting out what has grown on our side of the line we can at least reclaim another parking space. We've undovered two, maybe three, bicycle frames and a (hopefully empty) trash can. It's like we found a long lost neighborhood dump. Wonderful. Otherwise the cooler temperatures are making me very happy, and I've already begun work on a Halloween dessert.

This has already made the rounds, but just in case you have not seen it yet - this free pattern for a Princess Leia hat is Halloween perfection.

This is interesting - What's the deal with whole wheat white flour?

I really like the winner of the Craftster Little Tiny Challenge, the tiny fast food looks familiar (Martha Stewart Weddings 2003) and the little soda cup is smart.

The new Knitty is out, and it's great, as usual. I particularily like the simply well designed cardigan Serrano, and the double duty of Sugar on Snow. Also take a look at the ways to bind off and the Knitter's Guide to the Movies.

Craft posted information about the upcoming Mastercraft sale in Seattle. It's Saturday, September 16th and October 14th at Stitches, 711 East Pike Street; and Sunday, September 17th and October 15th at Fuel Coffee, 610 19th Ave. E.

We've decided to ad an over-the-sink pot rack to our kitchen storage. I was at the Sur La Table website and spotted a low ceiling pot rack which I thought might work just fine. And then I saw the price -- $936. Wha? I can find it in different finishes that would work in our kitchen in for as low as $670, but that's still about $620 more than I can spend on this thing. Maybe I'll just use those ceiling hooks meant for garages. (No, not really.) (Well, maybe.)

update: A bit of further digging turns up much more reasonably priced options. Thanks to everbody who emailed with links.

Lazy "Pie", at Dessert First. This one is for Scott, lover of fruit and dough of all kinds.

Such pretty baked eggs at Orangette, I must try these. These are completely unlike the first baked eggs I ever had, but still bring me fond memories of where I had them -- Doidge's.
