I literally have a headache there is so much in my head about enviromental issues, frugality, and raising a big family. I constantly feel frustrated living in a small southern community where I am often looked at with raised eyebrows when I bring my own groceries bags.
This year I will dedicate writing down every week day the ideas and tips i want to share with others.
1. Plant some chocolate mint near a downspout or outside water spout and it will grow like crazy.
I use this in tea but I found it great to deter black ants. I just put a stem in my cabinet and no more ants.
2. Cottonelle, Viva, Charmin, Kleenex, Puffs, and Bounty are all made with paper from 100 to 150 year old trees in Virgin Forest in Northern Canada: Buy post consumer recycled paper products whenever you can.
3. A good rule of thumb: One light (compact florescent of course) per person in the house. It is better to turn the light off when you leave the room for more than 10 minutes.
Namaste"
