Interior of Myer Dandenong store shortly before the store closing in October 2013. Dandenong Plaza has terminated the store's lease early to convert the space to Aldi, JB-Hi-Fi, Trades Secret and Daiso.
The store opened on November 4, 1974 as a four level store but was shrunk to 3 levels with a renovation around 1994 to coincide with the opening of Dandenong Plaza in 1995. Target now occupies the former ground floor.
Myer originally owned the building but have leased it since around 1989 - as was the case with other stores in Melbourne.
Kitchenware department on level 3 looking down to dinnerware and glassware. Prior to the 1994 renovation it was the furniture and home furnishing departments on level 4.
My collection of amateur porcelain painter works. :-) Fish is from 1960s, musician from 1950s, and cherub from 1930s.
I sure do like our new kitchen. And we no longer have to worry about denting the floor every time we (inevitably) drop something. Yay!
Set to Mimic is a set of smart kitchenware that recreates tastes and smells of your food to your preference. By placing a noninvasive transparent gel patch with a microchip on your head, the plate and glass communicates wirelessly with your brain, to make you experience a taste or smell from the past by tapping in to your memory. That way you can eat a carrot but have the impression that you're eating an ice cream or a steak, which makes it easier to lead a healthy life.

A Natural Pairing, or,
Home, Home on the Range
In the days before indoor, pressurized plumbing and water heaters, it was common to draw water from the well and heat some of it on the oil-, coal- or wood-fired kitchen range or stove. Nor was it unusual, in those days of outdoor privies, to convert the kitchen into a makeshift 'bath room' by moving a large, galvanized steel tub inside to perform one's weekly ablutions. The farm family would keep the tub itself in the barn or other outbuilding, and the basin would do multiple duties in other functions.
Here we see a nice set of nested zinc-galvanized bathtubs -- one obviously toddler-sized; bassinettes being an urban phenomenon in the early 20th Century -- in front of a domestic kitchen scene. The cast-iron 'pot-belly' stove would act as a space heater, although it could also heat a large, single pot or fry pan. It could also bake, after a fashion, if the cook used a Dutch oven, although these smaller units were not frequently called upon for culinary use. The white range is also a wood stove, a rather elegant one at that; most wood ranges were bare steel coated with blacking. This one is white enamel with speckled gray highlights intended to simulate soapstone, a material known for its heat retaining properties. A stove equipped with real soapstone would continue to radiate heat long after the fire had gone out.
Just left of center against the wall is a flour safe or hopper. Since going to the store was an infrequent event, people did most of the baking at home, and the flour safe would hold ten pounds (4.5 Kg) or more of wheat flour. Some kitchens had flour hoppers built into the cabinetry. Far right is the faithful 'Hotpoint' refrigerator. This looks like a real bruiser; for a large farm family of the late 1950s.
:D
One of my birthday presents was a Friendship casserole set :) We found it at an antique shop in Medina when I was home on spring break!
These two shelves used to hold most of my Pyrex, but I actually have a lot of other Pyrex throughout the apartment too! Especially my pink! :)
I apologise for the scruffy nature of this advert - it is on the rear cover of the British Industries Fair, 1935, that was held in Birmingham. The advert shows the wares of the Midland Metal Spinning Company, who manfactured at the Tower Works in Wolverhampton. Towerchrome was better known, in time, as the famous Tower Brand of kitchen goods.The company was founded by George Cadman in 1919 and became one of the country's best known makers of 'hollow wares'. They also owned the "Presto" pressure cooker brand.
Part of the kitchenware section remained (beyond the scissor lift), but otherwise several aisles in the old part of the Southaven Goodman Rd. Kroger had been removed. Those guys in the middle left of the photo were pouring over the remodel blueprints, trying to make some sense out of the Kroger craziness!

Furniture department on level 3 looking down to audio visual and kitchenware. The furniture department here had been thin for some time and sold often clearance stock. Prior to the 1994 renovation it was also the furniture and home furnishing departments on level 4.
wednesdays will be dedicated to Whispery White Wednesdays, why to invent something which is already invented right :)
Whispery White Wednesdays and kitchen ware
I had a sweet tooth today, so I made the most yummy evening snack I know of. Watermelon with mint leaves.
Tomorrow I am leaving for a week and a half trip in the mountains. I am really looking forward to it, but I will be cut off from all internet access while away. I hope you will all have a wonderful summer (still) :D
Kitchenware in Lahic (Azerbaijan).
Lahic is a small village in the Ismailly Rayon, buried deep in the southern slopes of the Greater Caucasus mountains. The dirt road to Lahic winds up the Girdimanchai river gorge from the vineyards outside Shemakha, crossing the torrent on a flimsy bridge and skirting the sheer walls on narrow, roughly hewn ledges. Ice and snow cut Lahic off from the valley for weeks at a time in winter. The drive up to Lahic is as stunning as dangerous, animals appear out of nowhere in winding 'roads' that hug the cliff face that plunges down into the valley below.
Isolation made Lahic a very atypical Azeri village: Tat, a Indo-European dialect of an old Persian tongue remains to this day the primary language in Lahic and a few surrounding villages. For centuries, the valley people have spoken, at various times, Azeri, Russian, Farsi and Arabic, but here in this mountain village of about 2000 people Tat resisted all invaders and remains as strong as ever.
The town was originally a copper mining hub, but that has died down. The mountain terrain above Shemakha is ill-suited to agriculture, hence Lahic's developed into a craft center. Tourism, carpet weaving, copper and brass work (pots, samovars...) sustain the village's economy. Less important in economic terms are leather goods, wood carving and (not always legal) handcrafted pistols and hunting rifles.
Due to frequent earthquakes the village developed it own building techniques, a traditional stone-and-wood cross-tie technique known in Tat as divarchu ("wood wall"). This technique has proven results - the damage provoked by quakes in places like Shemaka remains unseen in Lahic.
You can spend a few interesting hours in Lahic. Walk along the cobblestone streets, visit the History Museum and the Mosque, browse the shops, have a look the the copper workshop or try to visit the carpets cooperative.
The yellow bowl and the red ramekin are from the 60s and they remind me of the Pyrex designs. I think these pieces are quite rare...
Lakeland is an English company that sells some very useful household wares. They are not cheap but the products are usually high quality and often unique.
Did the chick come from the egg? Or the egg from the chick's head?
Kind of demented using the top of a chick's head to hold an egg that is about to be hacked open. :)

Love to all of you!

My favourite singer has passed away. He was one year older than I. Without him I feel a bit lost in the current East.
This is the cover of the CD booklet of one of his masterpieces, recorded in 1994. The photo was shot by Andy Earl, check him out, he is also great!
I put a link below in case you want to listen to the music. More of my favourites are here and here. I consider myself lucky, having seen him perform live a few times (which required intercontinental travel but it was worth every furlong of it) and these remain unforgettable moments for as long as I keep walking on this planet.

Thinking of giving your kitchen a facelift? Known for being one of the most commonly used rooms in the home, the kitchen can frequently need to be spruced up or improved on. Rather than spending an arm and a leg on new furniture and aesthetic materials, you can just as well use some of the things you have lying around the home to turn your kitchen around.
1. Creative Lighting
Instead of buying fixtures you can try repurposing old kitchenware. A pasta strainer, for instance, is a great start for a chandelier. Adding some string and tying spoons, jewels, or whatever else you want to hang from it makes it a creative focal point in your kitchen. If you really want to take your eco-friendly design to the next level, contacting local energy companies about alternative energy sources is a great step – especially if your kitchen requires a lot of lighting.
2. Backsplash Made from Dishes
Do you have an old set of kitchen dishes that you no longer have the use for? Instead of trashing them, you can break the dishes and create a unique backsplash. All you’ll need to purchase is some spackle, and you can place the broken pieces on the wall.

3. Recycled Wall Art
Create a feature wall in your kitchen with things you have lying around. Hanging a collage of plates, or spoons from the wall, for instance, adds creativity and ties into the theme of your new upcycled kitchen.

4. Repurposed Kitchen Island
Counterspace is great for those who love to cook, and it can be easy to add. Instead of investing in new countertops or an expensive island, you can turn some of your old living room furniture into a creative kitchen island. A small dresser, bookshelf, table or metal cabinet works just fine. Repaint it to match the theme of your kitchen and add a countertop to it such as a slab of wood, an old door, or a slab of stone.

5. Shutter Plate Rack
Are you running out of space to store your china sets? Instead of wrapping them up and putting them in boxes, you can easily display them in your kitchen. You can create a display shelf out of old shutters. You’ll need to purchase some screws, L braces, hooks, and paint.
6. Painted Coffee Cans
Coffee cans can be great for holding utensils and/or decorative flowers in the kitchen. Keep your old coffee cans and paint the exterior. Place them on cabinets with your cooking utensils in them or in the window with fresh cut flowers for a nice decorative finish.
7. Window Pane Wall Art
Old window panes can actually make great wall art. If you have old window panes that are still intact, you can paint or sand and stain them to match your kitchen. Hang them in an area where the wall is bare to add some life to it. You can change the entire vibe of your kitchen with things you’re no longer using around the house. So before you throw out that old dresser, door, or appliance, consider how it can be repurposed. A few small investments, some creativity, and a little elbow grease can transform your kitchen.
