I discovered this on Olive bites blog:

her Take 10 Tuesday series is very worthy of being observed!

THE STORY OF COSMETICS :

My formula against spring lethargy

Brennesseltee! - Stinging nettle




fresh from the garden, wash , chop, pour over with boiled water, leave 5 minutes to draw, ready!.......I drink 3 cups a day during 2-4 weeks!

The truth will out.

before........and after

I ignore constant the need of house cleaning on christmas or on easter, but it is impossible to ignore the dust when first spring sunshine laughs through your kitchen window.....

Btw..the genial sprout-dish with cress on the window sill is from eschenfelder, and made without any plastic.

I think, none of us should use a plastic bag ever again!

Well, I know this is not really practicable, but I will try to cut down a lot of them.

First I use baskets for my shopping by car. They don´t need 200 years to decompose.

The next is to have many fabric shopping bags!... I mean many, approx. 10.

you can left them in every handbag, in every shopping basket, in the car, in the bicycle basket..and so on...

Then, it is great to quit the use of thin plastic bags for vegetables or fruits.

This is possible if I have thin cotton fabric bags. (lots of them)!.

Last thing you have to do is: say NO ! if someone asks : "Do you want a plastic bag" ?

reusable bags

Here are four shops selling reuseable product and sandwich bags.....

find more shops on Etsy...

Plastic Planet

Yesterday I saw a documentary movie, which I ´d like to entrust to everyone!

I mainly try to live sustainably, but when I saw the film I recognized that my effort seems to be not nearly enought.
