Drip as much oil out as possible into compost before washing. We leave the oil bowl for roasting in the compost collector until it’s as done as possible then use a paper product like a napkin (saving your napkins from restaurants is great for this) and then compost the napkin/tissue as well before washing. #oliveoil#oil#compost#roasting#kitchentips#zerowaste#sustainableliving#greenliving

We have a new friend in the backyard! I put out these branches we gather on our walks just for this purpose. A lizard finally took me up on our offer! #lizards# backyard #reuse #sticks #backyardwildlife #backyardhabitat
Legos can be cleaned with makeup brushes. @bricksandminifigsatx shared the secret with me the last time I was in there. Feather dusters don’t work and they get caught on everything, and an air blower, like compression air for your computer, is too strong. Reuse those makeup brushes that you aren’t using, I don’t use any…
The black spiky caterpillars are back. This guy showed up on my garage door after I was in there for like 10 minutes. I shared on my neighborhood Facebook group and apparently it’s a Tiger Moth Caterpillar!
