The Ways in Which I Green: Ink

I first began blogging as a teen. I was an obsessive story teller and poetry writer (and performer) and accumulated many many notebooks and loose papers over my high school career. 

At one point, not fully understanding the ways to the world wide web, I printed my favorite posts, comments and all, incase somehow my digital diary disappeared. Cute, I know.

New Blog I’m watching

I found Unclutterer through MyLifeScoop through Design*Sponge (who just launched their fancy new layout!) I’m now obsessed with all three.

I’ve spent a considerable amount of time on Unclutterer, taking notes about future projects and things I can do ASAP to clear the junk out of my life. I found the article about Uncluttering for ADHD to be particularly helpful.

Unclutterer has this awesome feature called “Unitasker,” which pokes fun of highly-specialized wastes of space and through it I found some help in the Kitchen!

This morning I made “Yonanas,” without the use of a ridiculous machine. A friend recommended upping the ingredient list from one frozen banana to one frozen banana plus peanut butter. Oyster Man’s hand-blender is on the fritz, so I added the PB on the side and voila! Deliciousness!

The other great tool I found was multiple uses an item intended for unitasking:a waffle iron. Oyster Man and I got one for a vacation we went on with some friends, we always cook to lower the cost of being away from home, and we were assigned breakfast duty. If you’re like us and don’t make waffles very often (Trader Joe’s has gluten-free mix) check out Waffleizer.com.

Warm fuzzy feeling

A girlfriend just sent this out to Oyster Man and I and a few others in our close group of friends. “This reminded me of us.”

Oyster Man visited the farmers market and texted me this pic “a little overboard.” Yum.

Oyster man got himself a separate fridge for oyster samples! Hooray for ocean smell not infiltrating all the other food!
