ReplyDeleteI left a comment on the post "on a quest to simplify - slow down"
ReplyDeletea simple & good thing i do every day? i'm working on being an intuitive eater (listening to my body for when it's hungry or full to know when to eat or stop). this simplifies my life, brings me closer to being mindful everyday, and keeps from wasting food.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great blog! Loving all the informations and DIY creative ideas. I already left a comment on her baking soda post which I find very enlightening and informative. :)
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of stray cats around my office area and my neighborhood. Everyday when I walk pass or drive pass, I try to check if all of them are alright and if they need medical attention or food. Once I rescued a cat who had a serious case of mange, nursed her back to health and now she lives with me. :)

I love the Kanelstrand organic blog and would love to have a space there!
ReplyDeleteI commented on the 25th August 2011 post about big-name brands and toxins. Awesome post.
Thanks for hosting this giveaway!
One simple thing I do every day is to make something myself (whether a craft/sewing project or a simple soup). It reminds me of the effort that goes into making so many of the things we take for granted as cheap and disposable (while the truth is that the people who make them are often treated as cheap and disposable).

I always do one nice act for a stranger a day. From just smiling at someone, to holding the door, giving money to salvation army, sending care packages to soldiers, etc.
