    A tip for reducing use of paper towels. Keep a bandana with you wherever you go and use it to dry your hands instead of paper towels or electric dryers! They are also good as a blind fold when you need a quick power nap.

    Signed up for a CSA share with LEAF Project (sorry Jen!). They run an amazing youth leadership program that engages young people in farming and healthful practices. Plus, my son works there.
