This post has been on my mind all week. Partly, I know it's because you said you have citrus trees in your yard. I always thought that would be so incredible to have. Second, you boiled down so many of the things that I have in my mind so well. I'm big on the consume less idea, which is always tough as a blogger wanting to share the inside of my kitchen/living room. I feel like everyone else is always buying more things and dumping money into little details. It's really nice to come to your blog. It refreshens me every time you post something. I hope the beauty returns to your life. You've brought so much to mine! Katie Katie´s last blog post..Joel’s Small Kitchen Tour

Ugh, so true in my life right now because usually not only are these things healthier and cheaper, they make you feel so much better about the way you're living. These are great extra little tips to know as well! Taylen´s last blog post..Growing the House with the Family

I already cook from scratch for health reasons, but I definitely want to get back into (at least TRYING) to garden. Since our living situation is uncertain - we may be moving in the next few months; I will just do sprouts which is quick and easy. We rent so there is not much choice in what we do around the house though we do line dry our clothes (its raining now) and hang dry in the house when necessary. In terms of clothes, (I'm a fashionista!), I do a lot of my own mending and take what's out of my ability to the tailor which is definitely cheaper than buying new/used clothes. I’m also getting back in making some of my own clothing as well. Carla´s last blog post..Eco Fashion: Do it yourself - Organic Fabric

These are exactly the kinds of things that I am learning to do on my new “homestead”. Besides learning to garden, I’m also planning on getting some goats for milking, and chickens. Now, I’m a Southern California city girl who is very new to all of this, so it’s been an adventure so far trying to learn this new way of life! But it’s so rewarding when you are doing more to save your family money! Thanks for the post

Great post, Emily! I just planted some herb seeds and I can't wait to have them available for cooking! I always hate buying a huge bunch of cilantro when I only need a little bit for some guacamole, for example.
