I’m a hippie. Yes I said that. My music taste and my political views align with my emo brothers and sisters, but my lifestyle aligns with the hippies.

Let me elaborate: I’m a republican’s worst nightmare here so strap in.

I use natural deodorant

I use reusable dish rags instead of napkins or paper towels

I drink teas and kombuchas (I treat myself with the occasional monster)

I use crystals and do yoga and vibrational (sound bowl) meditation

I thrift all my mugs and dishes. They’re so cool and mismatched

I take life slowly and I stress mindfulness

I recycle and reuse and live sustainably

I eat whole foods and make a lot of my own food when I can

I prefer to be this way and I work every day towards this even in this growing world. I hope those who know me also understand this. I may not be perfect, but I’m trying to take the best care of myself and my planet.

DIY Orange Peel Cleaner

Are y’all making citrus infused vinegar yet? This mixture is low effort and low waste for a sparklin’ home. I love cleaning with vinegar as it’s less harsh than most industrial cleaners and does a thorough job on those grimy areas (looking at you toilet bowl.) You can save your excess citrus peel – that orange is scent is divine – and make a batch every few weeks or so. A much better smell than straight vinegar, trust me. If you’ve got more than a few peels on hand try dehydrating them to use later on. The dried peels keep well until you’re ready to infuse.

To make your own infused vinegar all you have to do is: - tear or cut citrus peels into small pieces and place in glass jar - cover with white vinegar (make sure your pieces are fully submerged or fermentation will occur) - let sit in a cool, dark place for 3 - 4 weeks (a cupboard works well) - strain peels when you’re ready to get cleaning! (compost the excess please) Simple as that. You get to extend the life of your produce and make the cleaning process a little more enjoyable :D PSA - just remember to avoid cleaning granite with vinegar! it’ll work most everywhere else though.
