Putting my drying rack instead of my dryer to good use during the snowy days. I don't use my drying racks much in the winter. I know it isn't energy efficient but I use my dryer. I live in the Pacific Northwest where it rains (snows) 9 moths out of the year. Drying clothes outdoor isn't an option for 4 people. But this week the drying rack is in full use along with our gas fireplace to dry our snow gear (80% pre-owned). Our thrifted 12 year old sleds had the time of there long lives this week. I am in love with lots and lots of snow. Just not global climate change. #climatechangeisreal #zerowastehome #snowday #snowmageddon2019 #pnw #thriftstore #reuse
I am very glad I went and shopped for the week before we got 18" of snow. This is just the first of many loads of groceries. With my meal planning I made; Ricotta cheese for stuffed shells. Then waffles made with the left over whey from the ricotta making. Chili with beans and rice, BLT's, French bread pizzas, OJ from the oranges, burgers veggi and beef, Avocado toast, yoghurt, oatmeal, almond milk, popcorn and of course hot chocolate. My kitchen has been busy. #snomageddon #snopacalypse #zerowasteliving #zerowastehome #plasticfree #intentionalliving #snow #pnw
I saw this posted on a bulletin board at a local grocery shop. This poster was made by highschool students. Maybe there is hope that kids in the USA understand that we are in a crisis to save our planet. I love the first line under recycling, "Think about the item you are purchasing..." #recyclingiscool #asb #zerowastehome #noplastic #notrash #garbagefree #intentionalliving #sustainableliving #noplanetb
I was recently rereading my favorite zero waste book @zerowastehome by Bea Johnson and I came across a passage that I didn't remember from my many previous reads. She looks for unpackaged foods on the salad bar like grated cheese. What!? This set my mind to think about all the things I passed up on the salad bar. I was already buying pickle, olives, peas, tofu and marinated feta cheese. But hadn't put the two together to get grated cheese. Thrilled to add parmesan and mozzarella into the zero waste section of my shopping trips. Homemade pizza here we come. I got a little exited and I also bought precooked bacon bits and edamame too. #zerowastehome #intentionalliving #mindfulness #plasticfree #sustainableliving #minimalism #simplicity #saladbar #reduce #ilovecheese #pizza #nowaste #laparfait
I often wondered when I was younger what my life would look like when I was older. I couldn't have imagined being a zero waste lifestyle advocate and presenter, but here I am. I am thankful for my 20's, 30's and now my late 40's and all those years taught me. They brought me here, to a life I love and a calling that brings me joy, everyday. Life really is a journey. Have you found your joy yet? #zerowastejourney #zerowasteliving #lovewhatyoudo #lifewothoutplastic #mindfulness #minimalism #simpicity #intentionalliving #inspirationalquote
I'm working on an article for a local small town newspaper. Writing is not my strong suit but 2019 seems to be challenging me to stick to my goals for the year. I have a few goals for 2019; 1. Write more 2. Reduce our garbage by 50% =2 gallons of trash a month for 4 people. 3. Get rid of more stuff 4. Cultivate better relationships 5. Spend less time worring about small and big stuff. What goal have you stuck to for 2019? #zerowasteliving #zerowaste #2019goals #sustainableliving #intentionalliving #dyslexia #konmari #fika #hygge #mindfulness
