Detoxify your life – we all need to do that. More natural foods as close to their original form as possible need to be eaten. When eating vegetables, always wash them very carefully if you cannot afford to buy organic and don’t have the space to grow your own. To preserve the nutrients, steam rather than boil them.

Well, I often just pack gifts in newspaper and say it’s the most environmental way of wrapping i can think of. I offer no apologies for it. one note, though, poor birds often eat those ridiculous plastic things on and in gifts, mistaking them for food. Then die. So, there’s another reason to avoid it all. Of course, another version I’ve come up with (for times I feel compelled to forego the newspaper) is simple brown paper, tied and wrapped with twine. My family also now uses gift bags and we reuse them. There’s a big rush now to grab bags after they’ve been opened, so you get to pack your gifts (next time) in the nicest bags!

Wow, I better get Lyanda over here to reply to this, she is the queen of simple home-made birthday goodies. Ok maybe not always so simple. One year she made little cakes in a castle-shaped bundt pan and the kids all decorated their own. One year we had a princess party and she sewed a simple tulle tutu for each girl.
