I love the Martini & Rossi print.

For the surge protector idea, you could invest in a smart strip. They have 10 outlets that automatically shut off some of your electronics when you haven't used them for a period of time.

My latest favorite is using cloth napkins with meals. We have greatly cut back on using paper napkins and our meals seem a little fancier now - even if it is just a PB&J. We are also trying to use cloths to clean up spills & messes more often so we hardly ever use paper towels.

A big winner if you are lazy is to set your hot water heater to a lower temperature. It is recommended to set it to 120 degrees as that is the hottest you should ever need it. I had my father set ours (it only took a few minutes) and the water is still hot enough for my boyfriend who likes long, hot showers. Just set it and forget it!
