The following pictures are from the award winning photographer Peter Menzel's book Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, detailing average families in 24 countries focusing on each family’s weekly food purchases and daily life. The book received the coveted James Beard Best Book Award in 2006 and was awarded Book of the Year from the Harry Chapin World Hunger Media Foundation.
Hi Amanda! So happy you added me on Twitter...so, I could discover your lovely blog! Amazing collection sof images here. I am, of course, a little embarrassed by the food in the American households -- yikes! So fascinating! If you don't mind, I would like to add this to my weekend links this Friday? Cheers, Tara http://nothing-elegant.blogspot.com
I'm an interiors addict and I'm currently a judge on Top Design Australia. I have been involved with quite a few loved interior magazines across the globe. I was Associate Editor @ British ELLE Decoration and Homes Editor @ Livingetc. I have consulted for StudioIlse, WGSN and IKEA. What really interests me is how we all live in the space we call home. As much as I want to know about the latest chair, must-have-accessory and hottest trends - the thing that gets me really excited is how we use our everyday objects. This blog is a chance to explore, laugh and relate to different people and families from across the globe who all have one thing in common. They love their home. Enjoy
love Amanda Talbotxxx
