Terrain:: Home and Garden Goodies

March 31, 2010 0
Have you see the home and garden goodies at Terrain? Now that spring has finally sprung, I am smitten with lovely things for our garden. I love, love, love these wonderful little things from Terrain. If you are lucky enough to live in Pennsylvania, you can stop by Terrain at Styer’s, do a little shopping and have brunch at the Cafe. Fantastic.
How about you lovely readers, are you excited to get back into your garden?

What lovely ideas do you have for your yard?
I would love to see what you are working on, you can upload your pictures to our flickr group.

Organic DIY: Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches

March 31, 2010 0

It was a nice and warm spring day here yesterday. The mister and I sat on our front porch sipping cups of ginger peach tea. When Eben came home, we made a children’s see through composter (more info coming soon). Eben and I decided that it is the perfect time of year to make ice cream sandwiches. So, I was excited to see these directions for making your own ice cream sandwiches at Twig and Thistle. The only change that I would make is to use organic ingredients, of course. Can you guess what Eben and I will be doing this weekend?

How about you lovely readers, is your weather heating up?

How Do You Slow Down at Night?

March 30, 2010 0

The mister and I have started a new nightly routine at our home and it has made a huge difference in the way I feel. Instead of watching television before bedtime, we have started to read while having a cup of chamomile tea. I have noticed since starting this new routine that I sleep more soundly through the night and when I wake up at 5 am, I feel refreshed and ready to take on my day. I have also found that it makes me feel more relaxed and ready for a good night’s rest.  I believe this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

How about you lovely readers, what is your bedtime routine?

Do you watch television?
Catch up on work?
Read a good book?

DOC:: Multifunction Furniture

It’s a sofa, no wait, it’s a bed. Ok, it’s both and it is in my favorite color orange. Wouldn’t this DOC Sofa Bed be perfect for a teenager’s room, a dorm or a studio apartment? Fantastic.

I love everything about it. I just wonder if it is comfortable.

Our Day Visiting the Baby Animals at the Farm

March 29, 2010 0

We spend yesterday afternoon at our local farm visiting the baby animals. They had a dozen baby chickens, 2 piglets, 1 calf and 1 turkey. They were adorable and so much fun to watch. Eben especially loved the goats and sheep because he was able to pet them. He said his overall favorite animal was Charlie the baby calf. The mister and I agreed that our favorites were the baby chickens. I have uploaded more pictures to our new Sweet Greens Eco Community Flickr Group for you to enjoy.

How about you lovely readers, have you taken your children to see the newborn animals at your local farm?
