I don't know if I've let anything slip previously that might have clued you in, but I'm a little green aruond the edges. Maybe it comes from living in Austin for 10 years of my life, or if it's b/c my mom is a major DIY kinda girl, or what. But I like to recycle, reuse, repurpose, upcycle, and do what I can that is a little more enviro friendly, esp if it helps my budget! That's why I carry my own water with me, eat my oatmeal from old glass mayo jars, why I started making my own laundry soap and more recently my own windex (no more buying plastic bottles!). And then after talking about it for several months, we finally started hanging our laundry out to dry. Rand took this picture and sent it to me at work to show me that even though he wasn't sure about it, he was giving the clothesline an honest try. It put a huge smile on my face (although I am not sure what our duplex neighbors think about it.) Next up ... backyard chickens!!! (A girl can dream.)
What I Wore While Our Sheets Dried in the Sun:

- white ruched wrap shirt (Newport News)
- black "mexican" skirt (Lane Bryant)
- black satin ballet flats (via Kohls)
- orange wooden bead necklace (Fossil, thrifted Goodwill)
- white shell cuff bracelet (H&M)
- black/white cameo screwback earrings (vintage store in Austin?)
What I Ate After Finally Deciding I was a Tiny Bit Hungry:
(I'm having problems with my foods pics. I'll try to upload later tonight.)
Rand and I kept going back and forth about wheather we wanted to eat dinner. He had a late lunch and I was starving when I came home so I shoved a bunch of crackers with neufchatel and fig preserves into my mouth. Yum! But not very healthy. We finally had some leftover mojo pork roast and roasted brocolli. I had a truly tiny portion.
