Natural Ways to Relieve a Head Cold

By Tiffany Leave a Comment

When we natural/green mamas get sick and are down for the count it might be tempting to go to the drugstore and grab the nearest over the counter medication for some quick relief. Let's face it, there might not be anyone around to take care us...make us soup and fluff our pillows. Heck, we are lucky if we can take a nap when we have little ones running around. We still have to take care of our families and take care of the home, even while sick. Such is the life of a mom right? Still when we do … [Read more...]

How to Clean Stinky Towels – Without Harsh Chemicals

By Tiffany 44 Comments

One of the things I miss about living in the Southwest is the fact that we never, ever had to deal with things like mildew and stinky towels. As a child, bathing suits and towels could be tossed on the carpet all willy nilly and only an hour or two later they would be crunchy and bone dry. Mildew didn't stand a chance. Later when I was cloth diapering my babes I had the luxury of being able to let the diapers sit in the diaper pail for a week or longer with no smell and no mildew. The first time … [Read more...]

Natural Remedies for Dry Skin

By Tiffany 12 Comments

Winter time is famous for dry skin. Even though I am venting my dryer indoors and the windows are usually all steamy my youngest and I are still having dry skin issues. If you have dry skin, you know that it’s not just annoying and kinda gross looking, it can also be incredibly uncomfortable. Your face feels tight and your lips may get chapped and your body itches. Conventional moisturizers are a waste of time usually, in my experience at least. The reason may be that the moisturizers simply … [Read more...]

10 Ways to Green Your Bathroom

By Tiffany 13 Comments

I get so many questions asking me where to start in regards to going green. So I thought I would start doing a room by room feature with green tips for the whole house...today we begin with bathrooms. Bathrooms can be a very wasteful place...lots of water use, garbage generation, and potentially toxic cleaning. Here are some easy ways to green your bathroom... 1. Stop flushing so much - With each flush we use 3-5 gallons of water. You can reduce those numbers greatly by simply deciding to … [Read more...]

Eco Tip: A Smart Showerhead

By Tiffany 7 Comments

Looking for a new showerhead? Why not pick one that is green/smart and helps you save on water AND energy. I recently got a 1.6 GPM Energy and Water Saving Showerhead and it is a great product for a green home. It addresses a common habit...leaving the water running while it heats up. Of course no one wants to step into frigid water but it is all to easy to turn it on and then leave to do other things. I know I am guilty of that and my kids can be to. We end up wasting hot water and energy … [Read more...]
