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…
This is still my favorite way to wear my black Sierra wool& dress three years later! I grew up in a uniform jumper with a shirt under it so I really enjoy this dress/shirt combination. At the time my school plaid was navy and dark green. I love red and black together. In elementary school…
