I plan to post

Hello,

My name is bwings and I have not turned my back on you!

I have been receiving several letters of encouragement to return. I think I shall. I miss posting and learning new things about the products I use and their impact on both me and my environment. Although I continue to research products before making any major purchases and I have continued to move towards a greener lifestyle, I feel I would be more active in this department were I still posting.

A few days after google terminated my account they sent me a coupon for $100 of google advertisements to direct people to my blog. Wasn't that nice of them? *cough* Hey, you can no longer work for us, however here's a useless coupon...um....enjoy.

Oh well, bygones.

Klanchoe - Chloe

Hyacinth - unnamed

In the past month there are several moments I have meant to blog about something I have been doing. For instance, I have added two new lovely plant additions to my household plants. A kalanchoe I have named Chloe who I introduced to the house in January. And a Hyacinth who has not yet been named. But she smells beautiful! I brought her home just a few days ago.

I have also purchased a fountain to add essential oils to. This way I can have a smog free scent in my apartment. Rather than using candles and generating petroleum pollutants in my air. Oh and it's purrrrty too.

I also purchased my very own pedicure kit and put anything with EDTA back on the shelf. This was hard as some of these smelled oh so delicious! I chose instead to go with a more natural foot scrub and so far so good.

These are all the little things I've done in my absence. I now must filter through my Hippie Mom e-mails and answer some questions. I see Happy Hippie has written me a few questions and shall respond as soon as I finish this post.

See you all tomorrow, your friendly neighborhood hippie mom.
