Food+Drink
Do you use a glass water bottle?
Just last week we showed you how to turn a Mason jar into a to go cup for hot drinks, but what about when you’re toting plain old water? Obviously, you don’t want to buy bottled water when you’re on the go, because it’s crazily overpriced and comes with all sorts of environmental and ethical issues. So, what’s the busy eco-ista to do?
Are paper cups lined with corn plastic green?
Like with anything making claims like “renewable” and “sustainable,” I was a little bit wary of these new cups. Sure, they were better than Styrofoam, but how much better?
Spotted: Mason Jar To Go Cup Kit
Remember those super nice gals at Greyslater who gave away a shampoo and conditioner bar set? Well, they are at it again with another awesome no-waste idea: the mason jar to go cup for your coffee or tea!
Make Your Own Sweet Potato Dog Treats
I was at the grocery store the other day shopping for the week and I popped into the pet aisle to grab a can of wet food for our pup who’s being a little finicky about eating lately. It was right there that I spotted them: organic cans of pureed pumpkin and sweet potato for dogs!
Spotted: Indoor Herb Garden
One of the best ways to keep growing food in the winter, if you don’t have a green house or hoop house, is to keep some food plants indoors. I love this indoor herb garden, featuring mint, parsley, and rosemary all in one pot!
