The Green Girl

Recently I have have been trying to make my life "greener". And by "greener," I mean harder. But not really. Well, maybe sorta. My husband and I have been making our own cleaning products, soaps, breads, and several different types of foods. I'm still searching for perfect recipes for this and that. I've found a pretty good chocolate muffin recipe, a good, if not flat, bread recipe, and a fairly decent soap recipe. Most, if not all, are still in the trial and error stages. We've been doing this for about two months now. I guess you could say it was part of our "new year's resolution." But not really. We are quite committed to the program however. If you call not eating processed mysteries a "program," or washing your skin in chemicals that could literally give you chemical burns. (We've been making lye soap.) It all seems to be sort of ....dare I say....fun. Of course I get the "hippie" comments frequently and whatnot, but I don't mind. I'd rather be a hippie than a mutant. :)
