I must say that this does not feel like a hardship to me, as the quality of clothing at the Thrift shops is so obscenely good and I save so much money by doing this, that I can't really claim any credit for this.<br /><br />Thank you for the site, especially for the bran muffin recipes and variations.Sally M.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-4069191478547874812011-04-22T18:49:12.863-05:002011-04-22T18:49:12.863-05:00I Like what Ohio Farm Girl said!

Pic...I Like what Ohio Farm Girl said! And I agree! <br />Pick me!!<br />Three ways that we go organic:<br />1) I have a pea patch in our backyard complete with Hoop house that grows a good deal of our veggies every year. I get my seeds from organic, non-GMO producers (like Baker Creek - they are rad.)<br />2) I make our own organic compost using Vermicomposting and pile compost methods and use this in our garden. (No chemicals for us!)<br />3) When I shop, I buy organic ingredients and make all my daughter's baby food from scratch with these ingredients. The more we buy, the more they will offer!!<br />l.w.nickell AT gmail DOT comeLindsey at NW Backyard Veggieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15317941200095723496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-37385006004162410742011-04-22T18:35:19.829-05:002011-04-22T18:35:19.829-05:00I so enjoy your posts!
