Are you enjoying October? Eben and I decorated the house a few days ago – it was fun to see all of the recycled decorations we have made over the year. One of my favorite’s were these flying recycled ghosts – they were featured in the fall issue of Green Child Magazine. I am always so impressed with Green Child Magazine – have you checked out the fall issue? It is jam packed with fantastic information, projects, ideas and inspiration – I am really enjoying it and so happy to be a part of it. Grab your copy here.

Halloween Planning
It’s here! October – my favorite month of all. Eben made me promise that we could get all of the Halloween decorations out of storage tonight. I can’t wait to sip a hot pumpkin latte, listen to A Nightmare before Christmas and decorate with my favorite person. Perfection.
How are you spending the first day of October?

Have a Lovely Weekend + A Few Green Things
Hello, Friends! Any fun plans for the weekend? I am anxiously waiting for the mister to come home, we are going out for sushi! We have the best local restaurant that specializes in local, sustainable fish – I have been craving it all day.
Tomorrow, Eben has another bowling tournament. The mister said that it will be a guy’s trip – so I can stay home and get caught up on projects that I am working on for Halloween! He is the best!
While, I get ready for date-night with my guys – here are a few green things to take you into the weekend:
– Two ingredients: organic vanilla ice cream + organic stout = ice cream float perfection!
– The mister mentioned moving to Italy – this tiny home would be perfect.
– Want to make your own cloth napkins? They are super easy to make.
– Now, this is my type of school – a barn!
– The mister made pizza dough last night – here are 10 other recipes to try!
– So cool! A recycled rubber tree playground.
– My Invisible Crown has an amazing Peace Blackberry Tart that I am dying to try.
I hope you enjoy the last few days of September!
I will see you back here on Monday.
xo,
Sweet Greens
