Wherefore Art Thou, Brown Bag?
This year, I made some crafts with the kids in honor of Thanksgiving. We did the traditional hand transformed into turkey craft. But when I wanted to make them fringed Indian vests with matching headbands made from brown paper bags, I realized that we don't really have any of those types of bags. Unless you shop at Trader Joe's or Whole Foods, you probably don't have a huge supply of brown bags like you did when you were a kid. Remind me again why those fell out of favor?

you can still request them at the regular grocery store. but they mock you, and pull some out that are *half* the size of the ones they used when we were growing up. i'm not kidding. i asked the cashier last time, "What's going on???" and he said something out them "trying to discourage people from using them." darnit. there go our indian costumes.....
ReplyDeleteGirl, you know it! I love the look of a brown bag with carrot greens draped out of the top the opening. It's just so darn quaint!
