Beyond the pail

Compost kitchen pail keeps compost hidden in an attractive bamboo pail

Ever since Earth Day, I’ve been making a calculated effort to be more kind to the environment. My son has been on me about it and I want to do my best to leave an eco-footprint smaller than my size 10 clunkers. Here are a few steps I’ve taken on my path to a greener lifestyle…

1. Fuel efficiency - I’m riding my bike everywhere, except if I’ve been drinking. I don’t want a BUI (biking under the influence).
2. Energy preservation - I switched to fluorescent lighting, even though it makes me and all my guests look like Vincent Price.
3. Recycling - I inherited this cute top one of my girlfriends was getting rid of (one woman’s trash is another woman’s treasure).
4. Composting - I’ve been saving my eggshells, coffee grounds and kitchen scraps in this sleek and natural Bamboo Kitchen Compost Pail from All Seasons Homestead Helpers.

I’m on a diet Mac

Organic foods online rock my vegetarian world

I’m proud to be a Vegetarian. I treat my body like the temple it is and stay away from foods that have a face, or foods that are overly processed. That doesn’t mean I don’t get the odd craving for one of my old childhood staples every now and then. I get all my Organic Foods Online at Hodgson Mill, because I can pick up some old school food favorites made healthy like this yummy Whole Wheat Mac and Cheese.

Like all women I have good hair days, and days when I wish I could wear a showercap to work. My luscious locks need this Rosemary and Cedarwood hair treatment from Neal’s Yard Remedies.

It’s Peanut Butter Jelly time

Peanut butter and jelly. A lunchtime staple. Whether it’s chunky or creamy, Peter Pan or Jiffy, if I don’t have my pantry stocked with PB&J, I’m not a happy camper. I hit the jackpot when I found these organic peanut butters and fruit spreads from Smucker’s Online Store.
