Cast iron pots are durable and easy to cook with, but most people avoid them because of the care cast iron requires. Apartment Therapy has a great article, “Technique: Seasoning Cast Iron” which takes all the guess work out of the process.

Almost Frugal compares dieting with curbing expenditures in “I Want It All, I Want It Now: Curbing The ‘Gimmies’“. What a great look at two very similar issues!

I’m a big believer in Flylady’s adage “You can’t organize clutter”. Wisebread takes it more in depth in “Stuff will never make you organized“. A good summary: “Just don’t imagine that buying new stuff will help you become organized. The only thing that organizes your old stuff is organizing your old stuff.

Lifehacker’s Gina Trapani is writing for Harvard Business Review now, and has very clear article on organizing your workspace at “Organize Your Workspace for Maximum Productivity“
