Green…Your Way is one of ten channels on the Life…Your Way network.  A online e-zine with articles on everything from motherhood and food, to blogging and technology, you are sure to find tons of great posts and information at Life…Your Way.

Creator and Editor Mandi Ehman originally of Organizing Your Way, has brought together some of the top bloggers on each of the different channels, and I am so excited and honored to be among them.  My partner on the Green…Your Way site is Katie from Kitchen Stewardship, who you all know that I love and admire, and it’s so great to be a part of sharing tips and ideas for living a green and simple lifestyle.  Head over to Green…Your Way to read my article about how you can save money and save the planet by buying things used.
