I appreciate I’m a bit late to this post but it’s so useful I’m glad I found it! I’m starting out in the world of learning new crafts so I can make and mend, cutting down on waste (don’t worry I already recycle and compost!) and this week we’re having a go at Mrs Green’s challenge to only eat what you’ve already got in the cupboards (bar fresh veg) from myzerowaste.com.
There is something very satisfying about achieving something new like making jam or reducing waste or seeing the money you save by changing purchasing habits.
Thanks for the inspiration!

Do you really want to unplug the TV, the VCR, the DVR, the computer?? The coffeepot? The microwave? Your computerized sewing and embroidery machines?
I gotta tell you, the work involved every time you have to start up from no-power is a real pain.
I think one needs to decide if all that thrash and hassle is a good idea….

Great post, and great tips. I too love the cleaning tips, and prefer to use all natural (old fashioned?) cleaners… not only cheaper and easier but healthier too!

Thanks for visiting my list too…

Thanks to everyone who has stumbled it, I appreciate it! And FYI, I just read another tip for vinegar usage; use white vinegar instead of rinse liquid in your dishwasher. Again, I can’t vouch for this personally, but it sounds interesting!
