Resolute in a new year

Typically around this time of year, I'm getting ready for the Big 10...a New Year's resolution focused on shedding the bit of fluff I tend to accumulate in the latter half of the year. I always drop the lbs. and get back in shape just in time for our annual Memorial Day pilgrimage to the beach. That said, it seems silly to keep wasting resolutions ( Read more... )

What great goals for 2012! :D I actually made our own laundry detergent for the first time a couple months ago and I LOVE it! It works great, smells subtle but great, and it saves us a TON of money! ;)

Thanks! If it counts for anything, I'm pretty impressed with your awesome 2012 changes as well. :)

Just made my batch and am going to post a tutorial for others. You are SO right...it smells SO good!

Have you ever considered starting with like a herb garden? My general feeling for a vegetable garden is for the amount I want to eat, it simply would not grow fast enough but herbs seems something like I wouldn't be able to use fast enough unless it was like basil. :)

And thrifting is awesome. In Japan it was like a constant goldmine finding stuff. I went nearly once a week to look through the House-Off/Book-Off (chain of recycle shops in Japan). I found tons and tons of great stuff for next to nothing.

There will DEFINITELY be herbs in our little garden. :) Speaking of, now that you're home, we need to have you over for dinner!!!! Wanna?
