Loki Quinn's Profile

My kids each have their own small version and I have two just the ones on the left (top and bottom) myself. I also buy these for gifts constantly. We love our market baskets!

We've made this several times now, with local, artisan goat cheese. I have to say, I prefer fresh rosemary to the basil but it's definitely a personal choice.

My husband purchased an enamel cast iron dutch oven for me from Homegoods as a surprise, which I must admit was a fantastic present. The only problem: the handle is plastic!

I made a provencal style beef braise so I unscrewed the lid from the actual pot (it was held in place by an ordinary screw) but it was a pain to get the rocket hot lid on and off to check on the meat. Any suggestions for making a plastic handle oven safe or a replacement? Other than this minor snafu, it really works wonderfully, especially since I've grown to hate our slow cooker.

Um, we don't use toilet paper, we use family wipes. The same as cloth diapers but for the family. When I'm not pregnant, I use cloth menstrual care as well. We wash our wipes the same as our diapers with a specific sanitizing cycle using tea tree oil and cider vinegar. Most people don't realize that toilet paper just doesn't dissolve--it's skimmed off the top at the water treatment plant and dumped into landfills--although I have heard of alternative uses for it. But still, yuck.

We do have 7th Generation toilet paper in the house for guests.

As far as the no impact goes, I would like to think that my son has had a minimal impact so far. And his father and I have done almost everything we can within our means to lessen ours as well--although there is always room for improvement.
