Lent is Over: Lets Pig out 

In an effort to become a more environmentally friendly household, we are starting to make some changes around here.  Many of these changes are due to me not wanting to work on writing the paper that is due IN 13 DAYS!  It’s amazing.  I can accomplish a lot while procrastinating.  Here are the first of our changes:

*Crunchy Clean – A laundry detergent made from a stay at home mom.  Very safe to use, no harmful chemicals and you can choose from lots of fragrances.  It arrived yesterday and the mail lady brought it up to the door.  She asked Pete what was in the fragrant little package!  The whole house smelled like linen breeze while we did laundry.  (I scurried around to find anything that needed to be washed, more procrastinating).  We should get about 250 loads out of $20 worth.  

*Vinegar – We won’t be using any more handy clorox wipes on the countertops here, sorry Clorox.  Now it’s just vinegar and water.  Saves money and less waste.  Also, no more dryer sheets…just adding vinegar to the rinse cycle will help with static.  Click HERE to read about other uses for vinegar. 

We really enjoyed Saturday at the MN Zoo, the animals were a bit lethargic but the company was great.  Andy got to see almost all of his cousins…
…we needed most of them to corner Andy as he ran about mooing like a cow and yelling duct (duck).
