New Updates, New Look

Updates....

Hey everyone! Thank you for following our journey through South Korea. It was an amazing experience. Now, we are back in the good old U.S. of A! Chris and I have had a pretty busy month of settling into our new home. Chris started classes last week. Meanwhile, I dove into a new business venture!

I am now an independent consultant for Willow House. WH is a wonderful direct sales company. They sell home decor, organizing and entertaining pieces. You can check out what they offer, by visiting my website: http://mariefowler.willowhouse.com. You'll see product placements on my new blog, for sure! I LOVE everything WH sells! If you are interested in an at-home, virtual, or online party, let me know!

New look...

I've been thinking a while about what my new blog would be about. It will be a work in progress, but I want to share the small changes I'm making in our life to be more environmentally conscious. From using only non-toxic cleaners to buying organic food. I've been trying to live a simpler, cleaner, greener, life.

My inspiration was a book: The Gorgeously Green Diet. I picked it up at the PX a few months back in the clearance bin and the price was right ($7.99, thank you AAFES). I love to cook and I'm constantly looking for new inspiration for new recipes. I thought at first glance this book would give me wonderful ideas for veggie dishes. (*Note: I'm not being paid to advertise this book. It was truly an inspiration and a turning point for me.)

I started reading through pages on what ingredients are really in some of the foods we eat. The main point of the book is how EASY it is to live a greener life. What we buy is what influences the products are put on the shelves. If we change our shopping habits, even a little, it will make a huge difference in what stores will offer. I was also convinced of how easy it could be to be greener while actually saving money!

I could go on and on, but I think I'll save it for further posts! But there it is, my goal for my new blog:

simple things I'm doing to live a cleaner, greener life.

with the occasional craft project thrown in there.

I hope you will join me for this journey!
