The power of baking soda!

October 2, 2008 by abbie 454 Comments

This past weekend, Shayne and I moved the kids into separate bedrooms and during the rearranging process, I discovered this very ugly stain on the carpet and we had to call carpet cleaning orlando to have it cleaned. It's a mystery in substance and in shape. The kids aren't allowed to have food or drink in their rooms, so I'm really not sure what it could have been.

I think what pops into most peoples' heads when they think of linoleum is the 'avocado green' or 'harvest gold' they remember from their grandmother's kitchen. However, I like to think that linoleum is making a comeback. My reasoning: it's green. Linoleum is environmentally friendly and that makes me happy. Turns out, the stuff is made from all natural products like … [Read more...]

Today’s green things

August 19, 2008 by abbie 103 Comments

Today is a bit of a rainy, dreary day, so with the exception of a couple of errands I just ran, I'll be getting things done around the house today. I thought I'd share the little things I'm doing along the way that help make an average day's activities a little greener.... I'm about to sit down and serge some cloth baby wipes. For months after I began cloth diapering, I just never switched over to cloth wipes. I thought that disposable ones were easier and just never went past that. … [Read more...]
