This is T dressed up for Barnes & Noble storytime on Tuesday morning!
He’s dressed up as a cowboy but he’ll tell you he’s a “Bullrider”- LOL!
We carved pumpkins last night, baking the seeds today- our chickens at the guts out of it…we will compost it when Halloween is over!
Our decorations are from a little old lady in Pasadena who cleaned out her garage and probably swallowed a spider while doing so! They’re old 80’s decorations but they are like new and still intact. I love the skeleton one the best- reminds me of the good ole’ elementary days!
We have hanging ghosts and a bat- they’re actually pretty cool- the eco tot loves them!
We will reuse them until they shred and are no longer…
We plan to BOONESTLE and have a SPOOKTACULAR night!
We are actually going to be Reverse Trick-Or-Treating for the first time—wish us luck!
The hub and I may even get the privilege of going to a Haunted House!
HAVE A SAFE HALLOWEEN!
(You’ll get to see the finished product tomorrow!)

A Greener Shaving Solution: RetroRazor

Filed under eco-friendly
Okay, so it’s been a month since I’ve discussed my experience about the Ditch the Disposables challenge. Just a reminder in case some of you are new… I challenged myself to do away with disposable razors. I’ve found the perfect solution too! My goal was to try and find an eco friendly wax of some sort…which I did come across at the Whole Foods Market.
It sounded like a great solution until I realized that it too was disposable in some way. After a few uses I’d have to buy a brand new box again. Plus, I’m still leaving trash behind (if not more)…wax paper- the tin the wax came in, the paper box etc. (all recyclable -but still!) One method came with a plastic applicator just depending on how you wanted to apply it.
A Boo-rific Meatless Monday with Top 5 Healthier Hallogreen Treats

Hey guys! It’s me again!
Time for another round of Meatless Monday- ding, ding!!
With Halloween on Saturday how about a ghoulish dish for those goblins or guests you may be having over. The dish I’m going to share with you happens to be another eggplant dish because the plant is still flourishing in my mother in law’s garden and giving us beautiful eggplants to nourish ourselves with. Oh, and my love for eggplants may have something to do with it too.
PLUS- after finding the Faken’ Bacon recipe I also found this recipe…
350 Rally Event @ The Park!

Coordinator- Leah L. and Jenaelha, Mama Knome 
Gotta luv the eco tot’s taking action too!
350! 350! 350!
There weren’t many of us but we still united!
My sis came with her daughter and she looked so adorable.
You can’t see the 350’s on her cheeks or arms but she was proud!!
My We Add Up tee- cuz WE DO ADD UP!!!
I’m so glad I made it to this event. I met a few new people and left feeling inspired and uplifted. I live in a small community so the turn out was as to be expected. I was very proud to be amongst other individuals who care about our planet too.
The original plan was to parade around the park with our pets but that did not happen. It was a very busy morning at the park and it was decided that we would stay put and hold our event where we were. So, we gathered around to ring the bells we brought 350x!
During the ringing the coordinator Leah, discussed facts about climate change and what 350 meant. Even though we were a small group we shared a message and our time together and for me that was moving! I definitely need to be part of these kind of events more often. Having my niece and sister there made the event even more special! 
350! 350! 350!
