I updated my turkeys to be historically accurate this year. It turns out that the settlers we now call Pilgrims, first of all did not call themselves that, and secondly did not wear the tall hat with a buckle we have come to associate and include on all Thanksgiving decorations. Why do we do that…

I’m starting Outfit of the Day videos and photos, #OOTD, and I hope it helps you with the decisions and choices you make, or to consider why you make the choices that you do! Sometimes we have the option to choose between fabrics, materials, local or corporate, and sometimes we just get what we get…
Low effort, simple, reusable bathroom changes for seasons. I don’t want a lot of stuff or things to dust so I like to use “big impact” seasonal changes. I change the rug, the soap dispenser, and the towel, plus the picture frame inserts. Soap dispensers are from @heb and I refill them from a big…
Zero Waste Block Leader Idea: Collect yard signs of any kind on your porch, patio or at your front door and allow neighbors to take some if they want them. We can take them to the Recycle & Reuse Drop-off Center – these cannot go in your blue carts, to be recycled and sometimes creative…

Back in November of 2022 they issued a new Ghost Net Bracelet (in green!!!) that was made from 100% 4ocean plastic with 4ocean-recovered ghost net in the bezel. It was described as a bracelet for, “raising awareness about the impact of ghost fishing on marine…
Sometimes you just need a new friend. Meet Turtley and Burtle. My son and I needed turtles a while back. It’s always fun to get yourself something when you buy a present for someone else if you can. These sea turtles from Wild Republic are made from recycled plastic water bottles. Our family does not…

This was my Austin Creative Reuse (ACR) haul on July 30. I had a list for Vacation Bible School (pictured below) and then my son and I needed a few things. My favorite find was a purple G2 pen. G2s are my favorite pen from when I was a contract administrator and I still use…
