Mrs Green
I am a long time supporter of the Green and Sustainable lifestyle. After being caught in the Boscastle floods in 2004, our family begun a journey to respect and promote the importance of Earth's fragile ecosystem, that focussed on reducing waste. Inspired by the beauty and resourcefulness of this wonderful planet, I have published numerous magazine articles on green issues and the author of four books.

Sunday roundup 40
‘Tis the end of another glorious week. One which provided a beautiful day of sunshine and kept us in the garden and away from the computer all day. We’ve dug 4 out of 6 of our beds, so I’m feeling very productive!
Our good idea (which backfired)
Mr Green and I had an ‘Aha!’ moment in Lidls last week. Picture the scene. A packet of butter kept in the cupboard (because butter from the ‘fridge is so hard it rips holes in your bread) after two or three days. Guess what that looks like.
Little and often is the key
Geesh, I’m pooped and I should know better. After following a zero waste mission for over 6 months, I STILL have to discipline myself.
