| Goodbye Dining Out, Hello Dining IN! |
As our family moves into our fourth year of this
“Non-Recession” Recession,
we definitely have a New Normal around our house.
Although I’m reminded daily by my three lovely children that our house is
“NOT NORMAL, MOM!”,
Here is What’s HOT & What’s NOT for 2012
at Casa Drake:
 |
| Goodbye Jag, Hello Cream Puff ! |
 |
| Goodbye Starbucks, Hello Liquid Sunshine! |
 |
| Goodbye Power-Pearls, Hello Hunter Boots! |
 |
| Goodbye Luna Bars, Hello Green Smoothies! |
 |
| Goodbye Hiring Help, Hello “Being” The Help! |
 |
| Goodbye Outrageous Water Bills, Hello Rain Barrel! |
 |
| Goodbye One Ridiculous Puppy, Hello Two Ridiculous Puppies! |
 |
| Goodbye Buying New Clothes For an Old Body, Hello Fitting a New Body into Old Clothes! |
 |
| Goodbye Plane Trips, Hello Road Trips! |
 |
| Goodbye Buying Things That We Can Grow, Hello Growing Our Own! |
 |
| Goodbye Veuve, Hello Kombucha! |
 |
| Goodbye Throwing Away Things That Look Dead, Hello Saving Seeds…LOTS of Seeds!
|
 |
| Goodbye Penthouse Office in the City, Hello Backyard Potting-Shed-Office in the Garden (which I officially get to move into TODAY!) |
Interesting that being fiscally conservative ends up being so damn healthy and well…
good-for-you all around.
Hmmmmmm.
Tough Love.
From our “New Normal” Home to Yours…
Happy New Year!!!
2012

Well done!
