Planter benches bring garden flair indoors and out. Use a long low wood base for display with various sizes on an oblong bench or L shape to refresh any room. For small planters 2x8 legs work. heavier pots may need 2x4s or 4x4s. Western lumber takes stain well with a subtle color to blend. Walls in wood or light stain require only occasional wipe or a wax every few years.

Housewife Costs: Cheap Meats Offer Protein Bargains
A UPI report citing Agriculture Department economists finds switching from high price steaks to cheaper meats and meat alternatives can cut bills without sacrificing protein. It notes 20 grams of protein come from lean cooked beef or pork, while many cheaper items like peanut butter eggs or tuna offer similar protein at far lower per serving costs. The study compares costs at June 1970 prices, showing bargains from beans to hamburger and eggs, and advises homemakers to compare cooked lean protein amounts across meats to find true value.

From where we sit social news has shifted with wedding customs. The bride's cake, once white and frosted, is now often called the wedding cake in informal circles, while formal circles still use bride's cake. A groom's cake exists with varied flavors.
