Eating this for the first time I was absolutely convinced that it was store bought. After my third slice I worked up the courage to ask for the recipe and believe it or not, it’s made from all kinds of natural organic goodness!
Thanks Kait!

In my pursuit for green knowledge, I found some helpful hints to making your car a little more green friendly — and saving some money at the same time! Great bonus and a wonderful motivator.
Here are a few helpful tips:
1. Remove all bike racks, roof racks and roof boxes.
The wind resistance is wasting fuel and costing you money. Remove them now!
2. Lighten the load.
What’s in the trunk of your car — a set of golf clubs? A four man tent? Why waste fuel using your car as a shed? Get them out and save more money. Hey, maybe you’ll remember why they’re in there in the first place and use them! Just remember to take them out when you’re done. Those things are heavy and a big factor in your gas consumption.
3. Check your tire pressure.
Reduce the rolling resistance of your tires. It really does save you money on gas! Don’t know how to check your tire pressure? Check out this helpful video link.
4. Share your car.
Cut your fuel bill in half by ride sharing/car pooling. Plus, wouldn’t it be nice to have someone else do the driving once in a while?
Now that the beautiful weather is here, why not walk or bike? Think about it. Is it entirely impossible? Even though I don’t drive, myself (I bus quite often), I’m considering walking more often simply to enjoy being outdoors more — get some fresh air!
