Journaling outside. If we don’t slow down to enjoy nature, creation, then what are we working to help and save? It’s been so long since I was this calm and quiet. Many thanks to @emmalrobles for the inspiration. How gorgeous is this fluffy ground cover that took over the yard? It grouped around the stepping…
The kids Korean and foreign language section at Recycled Reads by the Austin Public Library is amazing! This seems like a great selection and availability to me, but let me know your thoughts! This is such a fun bookstore and the prices here are just ridiculous! It’s another wonderful way to keep these books out…
My fancy blues: @popfizzcheers and @mimisorigamis. I finally found a gorgeous blue headband by my favorite headband maker and always love my Mimi’s Origami crane earrings that are multicolored. My head is larger than a lot of people so a lot of headbands are tight and uncomfortable, even give me headaches, but not PopFizzCheers! These are the most…
This sweater is 15 years old, at least. It’s from Kohl’s. When you shop, thrift, and/or borrow, buy/find good quality pieces and take care of them. My sweater is washed on the gentle cycle, air dried and I use my fabric shaver on it to remove pills. Pills mostly occur in the armpits. I fold…

Butternut squash, pumpkin, pulpy stuff scooping is made easier with a sugar spoon or grapefruit spoon. I preferred the sugar spoon and the scalloped edges to help scrape the stringy pulp out of my butternut squash. Yes, I did go pull seeds out of my compost after the video for my son to plant for…
Alcohol, rubbing alcohol or grain alcohol (Everclear) are great for disinfecting earrings, to use as deodorant, cleaning your glasses and erasing whiteboards. What else do you do with it? I like to keep my in a little spray bottle to make using it easier! #alcohol #rubbingalcohol #grainalcohol #everclear #disinfectant #deodorant #cleaning #cleanyourglasses #permanentmarker #swimmeets #swimming…

Save your milk tabs and rubber bands! Austin Creative Reuse is accepting these items for reuse at the counter. This is so great because the tabs are too tiny to catch in recycling even with bailing and most grocery stores don’t collect rubber bands from the products they sell. #reuse#creativereuse#milk#milktabs#rubberbands#repurpose#upcycle#alittlemoregreen#lesslandfill#broccoli#carrots#asparagus#crafts#zerowaste#austintx
