Summer Home Maintenance Tips

By Tiffany 3 Comments

The weather in Ohio has been a little crazy lately. We have been alternating between rainy and cool, hot and humid, or just plain hot, hot, hot. Some days the A/C is running and some days not. I guess I should just be thankful for the days that are not so terribly hot...the days when I can open my windows at night because the temperature has fallen below 80 before I nod off for the night. It is a constant summer pass time...trying to keep the house comfortable without using the A/C too much and … [Read more...]

An Oldie but Goodie – Drying Racks

By Tiffany 4 Comments

All summer long (and now well into the Fall) I have been using the power of wind and solar to dry a large portion of my clothes and bath towels thanks to a classic drying rack. I love the fact that I have saved pennies by not using my energy hog clothes dryer but I also just get such joy out of seeing clothes and towels blowing in the wind outside.

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...]

It’s a Wrap – Stinky Bathrooms, Nature Stimulus, and Meatloaf

By Tiffany 8 Comments

TGIF! Have an awesome weekend everyone! Occasionally I do a link round up to highlight all the cool stuff I have come across lately. It is also nice to do a more "fluffy" post when I am short on time and that I am right now. I leave this weekend for Detroit to attend Ford's Innovation & Design Fantasy Camp and NAIAS, (#FordNAIAS). I was invited by Ford and they are putting me up while I am there. They also invited several of my green bloggy friends and we will hopefully get to pal around … [Read more...]
