Before Christmas we showed you a few new calendars for the kitchen. Here is one more creative and minimalist calendar, with a bent towards helping you stay healthy.
This poster-sized calendar invites you to keep track of the days (and your fruit-eating) by putting the produce sticker from your daily apple on each day's square.
From the designer:
Here's a quick and easy way to keep in tip top shape. Just peel the little variety sticker from every apple you eat and affix it to a square. Keep it interesting. Try a Belle De Boskoop, a Newtown Pippin, how about a Peasgood Nonsuch, or maybe a Turley Winesap. There's no shortage of combinations and imagine how good you'll feel, when, after a years time, you've filled each square with a colorful little sticker.
We say, why stop at apples? Why not pears, bananas, mangos? How about squash and onions too?
This poster is 18" x 23" and it's printed in yummy letterpress.

What if you get apples from a farmer's market? They don't PUT stickers on their apples, after all.

The above comment is exactly what I thought too! It is a nice idea though.

If you buy fruit from the farmer's market just buy a pack of stickers. Not that hard.

I wish I came up with the idea! Brilliant!

It is cute indeed, but I personally would use the available stickers on a regular wall calendar, same end result, yes?

I had the same thought as above posters! I bought bulk apples from a local farm & have them in my cold storage-- no stickers for me!
