Almost Heaven

I saw this on Facebook posted by Western NY Bowhunter group and I thought it was a nice reminder that rural land, off grid is a lot more affordable than one might think. I’m sure too there are other reasons for the low price – and unfortunately it’s New York State where taxes and regulations are high but it looks like almost heaven from a property overview standpoint.

Merry Christmas! ๐ŸŽ„

It looks like we still have some snow on the ground this morning and the sun is coming out โ˜€ I’m this cold winter morning. I am enjoying a cup of coffee โ˜• before I head out for a walk.ย One week until January 1, 2020!

12 Tips For Fighting Food Waste: Life Kit : NPR

Food waste is a big problem in the United States, where a typical household of four tosses out about $1,600 worth of food annually. So, Life Kit did a deep dive on how how to reduce food waste.

I like a lot of frozen fruits and vegetables that don't come in a lot of packaging and rarely step foot in a store more than once a week. Frozen things rarely spoil and I have some weeks where I don't shop at all or buy minimally and cook from what I have. Plus having to haul any waste I don't compost to the transfer station is another incentive to reduce waste.
