The journey to a green / environment friendly / zero-waste / sustainable life is tough. It starts with awareness (you can find my post here). Then a choice. Not choosing which lifestyle to live (not yet)
After Oreo’s passing I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to adopt another dog. It’s a huge responsibility and a lot of work. But look at what I did! It all started when #1 came back in August for our sisters
It’s been exactly one year today since Oreo left us. This post is in memory of him ❤️ Oreo came into our lives in 2007. He was about two years old. His “parents” who were #4’s (@amco) friends were moving

Repairs! Repairs! Repairs! Every so often a bunch of electrical and plumbing repairs need to be done. It’s weird how it’s usually several problems at one time! And finding a reliable workman is quite
Changing my diet wasn’t too difficult. It was just a matter of eliminating meat. Don’t get me wrong. I do like meat, especially lamb. Before I became a pescatarian, my wish for my last meal before I die
Image source I just gave #6 a bunch of beans yesterday and harvested another bunch this morning! And there’s going to be another bunch in a couple of days! Can you see the beans hanging? I’d just cooked
As Jack was driving by USJ 19 City Mall last night, Steve, my brother-in-law, spotted Ravi’s Banana Leaf restaurant at the corner of the building. Today we went over for lunch. The banana leaf rice was
