Although full of chemicals and highly processed, Yoplait Whips freeze just like sherbet! The air bubbles keep the frozen yogurt soft.

While I think these tiny houses are beautiful and thought-provoking, it seems to me that it is just as sustainable, if not more so, to embrace group housing and shared spaces.

Cooking old fashioned oats on the stove top is quicker than many people think, too! Almost every morning, I put a handful (around half a cup) of oats into a small metal pan, pour enough water so the oats are covered, and cook until it's done (less than 5 minutes). Then I mix in some almonds and frozen blueberries, which sweeten it enough that I don't have to add sugar. The frozen blueberries also help cool down the boiling hot oatmeal so I can eat it right away. I eat it right out of the pot, so there's only one dish to clean.

The link to Jen's Minimalist Sanctuary takes me to Chris and Erin's Farmhouse Add-On. While theirs is also a great tour, I really want to see Jen's! Could you fix this please?

put the pictures on the wall above it, and you're golden

@LSUgrad03- I do donations in their name to a charity they would like. The best ones are where you can buy a "thing," like chickens for a poor family, instead of showing a dollar amount. Plus, you can do it online and it only takes a couple minutes.

the grilled cheese pictured in this post makes me want THE WHOLE THING. no sharing.

full house tour, please!

@jess13- my bf was the pickiest eater ever. but then he got into cooking, and suddenly, food that he would wrinkle his nose at before became "delicious" once he made it himself.

I think it depends on whether or not you've got allergies. If you do, you probably have to be vigilant about covering, washing, and replacing pillows, but if you don't have allergies, and the pillow doesn't smell, and you regularly wash your pillow cases, then it seems pretty arbitrary to decide, for instance, that 2 years is an acceptable time period to have a pillow, but the very next day, that same pillow is unsanitary.
