The Waste Not Want Not Wednesday link-up party is inspired by World Food Day (Oct. 16), and recent articles such as this one that show between 40-51% of food in Canada and America ends up in the garbage. Over-consumption, lack of knowledge, low cost and over purchasing are common causes of food waste in North America. This unsustainable over-consumption extends to so many aspects of our lives.
So perhaps if we all share our tips for consuming a little less stuff in general, cooking more responsibly and frugally, and living eco-friendly, we can each take a small part in making our world a little more sustainable.
And besides, who couldn't save a little bit of $$$ anyway?
Last week I didn't get a chance to share some of the top posts for WNWNW, so this week I've selected last week's most viewed posts, AND the most viewed posts from the week before.
And my apologies, despite all my fiddling, I couldn't get blogger to display these photos normally :( Next time I'll be more prepared!Blueberry Scones from Sandi's Allergy Free Recipes |

Juice Fast: Was it Worth it? From Treasures from a Shoebox |

What are the guidelines?

Hi Danielle,
ReplyDeleteHaven't visited for a while, pick edible wild flowers/herbs for a special gift for someone or yourself :-)
Thank you for hosting!! This week I shared three posts – two discussing white flour and bleach... whether or not the chemicals in white flour are bleach, and then whether or not those chemicals are dangerous. The third is a recipe for soaked whole wheat pancakes – definitely a welcomed recipe after reading about white flour!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting again! I linked up to 2 articles this week (1) My new favorite pork chop recipe, made with rhubarb chutney and (2) A simple summary of the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol. Have a great week, everyone.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting! This week I shared flavor-infused water: lemon-lavender, strawberry-mint, and cucumber-rosemary.
