Happy Earth Day...Everyday!

Today is Earth Day....Always makes me giggle because shouldn't everyday be Earth Day? Should we be doing something different that we don't always do? Over the years I have been trying to be more and more "green" because really, it cost less...So being frugal I am being green. I like that.

Here are two of my favorite ways to celebrate Earth Day Everyday.....

Compost...Compost...Compost! We just started last year but it has been wonderful for our garden. For some reason it makes me smile to see the pile of greens, egg shells and such on my counter top knowing they will "feed" us again.

Household cleaners. When I can. This was A Lot easier when I had just one child. Now my brain is so scattered I forget to make them before I run out. I have made cleaners for surface cleaning, bathroom cleaner, floor cleaner, laundry soap, baby wipes....When I cannot make my own I prefer Method mostly for the delightful scents! My all time favorite is the Ginger yuzu Multi-Surface cleaner. (which I have only found at the Wholefoods in Roseville...kills me!) I also adore the Pink Grapefruit Multi-Surface, ALL of the Ylang Ylang Bathroom Cleaners and the Almond hardwood floor cleaners. All make me happy to clean!!!
Recently I discovered Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps. This is just what it says Magic! I use it for everything. A small bottle lasts a long time since to add just a few drops to the water. In fact last week I ran out of my beloved Ginger yuzu cleaner and filled the bottle with water with a few drops of the Magic Soap and I am hooked! I love how clean everything gets! My favorite is the Almond! (can you tell I am all about scents when it comes to cleaning!)

Food and Cleaning...Pretty much sums up my life!

Oh and today I cleaned out the shoe box and have a big bag of shoes to donate. So that kinda counts as celebrating Earth day...Recycle...Reuse.

Happy Earth Day!

Ally has an Earth Day song...But she cannot remember it.
