I just returned from Ambiente 2012, Europe's largest consumer goods tradeshow, which is held in Frankfurt, Germany. While the show itself was an absolute wonder, with 4,500 exhibitors covering the equivalent of 44 soccer fields worth of space, the highlight of my trip was meeting a fellow American. But this wasn't just any American ... it was Ms. Martha Stewart! More

During fashion week, I love scrolling through the runway shows and simultaneously drooling and laughing at the outfits (sorry, the "looks") -- drooling at the beautiful designs and fabrics and laughing at the sometimes ridiculously over-the-top style.
Over the last decade we've seen the trend of slick stainless steel appliances take over American kitchens. While that might make for a modern streamlined look, we're finding the warm feel of these vintage inspired refrigerators a refreshing change.

I really like the pieces regardless, and at $40 and $20, I couldn't pass them up. Thanks. More
