How to join a food swap for homemade food in your area!

  This is Day 328 of the Green in 365 series! By Sara from Your Thriving Family, Contributing Writer Don't you love homemade foods? That seems to be a huge selling point when looking at labels in stores. "Tastes just like homemade!" Well, we don't always have time to make the variety of things we'd like to try ourselves - and let's face it we all have different talents. Maybe you are a great cook, but not such a good baker. Well, I have a frugal, green and delicious … [Read more...]

These are so helpful! 8 Tools for Packing a Now Waste Lunch from LiveRenewed.com

This is Day 319  of the Green in 365 series! My daughter started full-day Kindergarten this year, so she eats lunch at school everyday now. Ugh! While I'm sure you'd love to hear me rant about school lunches and how awesomely terrible they are, it kinda hurts my brain, and stomach, just thinking about it. And let's not even discuss how a rice-krispie treat is counted as a "grain" on the school lunch menu. You think I'm joking, right?! So, I have resigned myself to packing school … [Read more...]

Planning for a Green Christmas

This is Day 314 of the Green in 365 series! By Renee from Joyful Mom, Contributing Writer Here I am: 6 weeks away from Christmas, and I don't quite have a plan!  How does this happen every year? Last year I downloaded a "six weeks to the perfect Christmas planner" and did not use it. I looked at it - each and every day.  For me, all that planning and boxes to check off, that system to enjoy the holidays... did not create joy. So here I am. No plan. The best part of not having a … [Read more...]

Green in the Life: Reusable Straws

This is Day 291  of the Green in 365 series! I mean, how could I not share this picture with you? Look at that sweet babe rockin' the baby curl mohawk and sippin' on a delicious green smoothie? It's not really life-changing or anything, but I recently ordered some stainless steel reusable straws from Mighty Nest and I totally love them. It actually makes me really happy to use them. I'm weird like that! I used to wash and reuse plastic straws, but they'd eventually have to be … [Read more...]

Green in the Life: Hanging Clothes to Dry

This is Day 288  of the Green in 365 series! I've been line drying our clothes for several years now, since we first put up a clothesline the summer after we moved into our current home. We've had warm, even hot, weather this fall so I've been trying to take advantage of the chance to line dry our clothes before the winter weather sets in. (Which, ironically, is suddenly this week - with cold and rainy days. Why does it always do that - jump straight from hot weather to cold and gross? Where … [Read more...]

Laundry

This is Day 284  of the Green in 365 series! By Renee from Joyful Mom, Contributing Writer  Life and laundry was so simple when it was just my husband and I. A weekly load of whites, a load of  darks and sheets/towels.  I could have the chore of laundry completed in just a few hours. How I long for those days now! With the birth of my first son, laundry was a increased by the cloth diapers. He was born in August so he really didn't wear more than a diaper and those gowns to sleep in--he … [Read more...]
