I haven’t put up a garden update in a very long time, so I’m going to disguise it as a tip. Or, I’m going to make today’s tip a lesson I learned from my tomatoes. One or the other. All about how you look at it. Read more…

We used to have two sets of sheets, and I’d rotate them to make changing the sheets easier. But we used to let Argo up on the bed all the time, and he tore a few holes (which I repaired) and generally wore out one set with his giant rough dog feet. I guess those sheets are still usable, but they are kind of dingy and depressing and probably better suited for the rag bin.
So, now we’re down to one set, and while that’s okay, I have to make sure I time my wash so that we have clean sheets by bed time, and well, I’m not known for my stellar household organizational skills. So I’m starting to toy with the idea of buying a new second set. Here are a few options I’m considering:

Did you have a family member who sat in the corner at a party or holiday event, carefully folding up wrapping paper for future use? Maybe it was a grandma or great aunt who lived through the Depression and learned to save anything that was usable, maybe it was just someone who was thrifty and knew how to pinch pennies. What ever the reason behind it, saving wrapping paper makes good green sense.
