We got home from Texas late last week. Hooray! Waiting for us as we walked in the door though were bucketloads of tomatoes from our 200+ plants. I’m so happy our tomato plants are doing well this year! Last year we didn’t properly amend our pitiful soil and the poor plants didn’t do well at Keep Reading
Homemade Baby food
Every time I walk past the baby food isle in the grocery store I find myself wondering: do people really feed their babies that? I mean on a regular basis. There are circumstances where I can definitely see buying jarred baby food - like on a long car trip or something. It’d just be easier. But Keep Reading
Organic Pest Control
Summer’s here! Okay so, maybe not quite. But it’s hot outside, and gardens are going strong…. And they’re full of bugs. What’s the organically minded gardener to do? The last thing we want is to spray pesticides that make the produce unfit to eat. Here are a few of our summer bug Keep Reading
DIY Hair Cut
I got my hair cut yesterday. Yup. Actually, I cut it myself. Don’t worry, I’ve been cutting my own hair for a while now.

Preparing For Baby On A Budget
I went online looking for car seat reviews a few days ago, and was reminded once again just how expensive baby gear is. Fortunately, you don’t have to spend that much! Garrett honestly hasn’t cost us that much, so I thought it might be useful to pass on some of the methods we used for Keep Reading
Sling Love
Garrett was a high maintenance baby. I was never really sure what the problem was. Gas? Or maybe he just wasn’t getting enough sleep. I don’t know, but I couldn’t bring myself to just lay him down and let him cry while I worked. I spent seven long weeks struggling just to get meals on the table. Keep Reading
Cloth Diapering; A lightbulb Moment
A friend and I were talking about cloth diapering at church a few days ago. She was pretty excited about the Fuzzibunz she’d just purchased from ebay. I use mainly Smari Pants, which are much the same. Both are pocket diapers, both snap down to multiple sizes, both are incredible at wicking Keep Reading
