Waste Not Want Not Wednesday #64

Got a great gluten free recipe, some frugal, eco-friendly tips or  a healthy living article? Well come join the party!


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? 

Hi everyone! I don't know about you, but after an extremely long, cold winter we had a GORGEOUS day yesterday, the warmest day so far, and I found myself practically running down the street tearing winter layers off while crying tears of joy. 

Then today came. A cold, gloomy, rainy day. To top it off, my "lady time" started. Yay.

But that aside, I'm happy you're all here for this week's party!  Because I'm feeling like laying on the couch tonight, I've chosen some treats from last week's party that I'd love to munch on while listening to the rain.

Jelly Donut Muffins- Gluten Free & Vegan (Top 8 Allergen Free) from Fairy Wings and Pixie Dust

Coconut & Avocado Grasshopper Bars from Raia's Recipes

Chocolate Mint Tea from The Frugal Farm Wife

Posts without a link back will not be eligible for features, or being shared on my Pinterest board.

2) Visit some of the other posts here, comment on their scrumptiousness/brilliancy/helpfulness/frugality and let them know you found them here and hope for a similar visit.

3) Consider following the Poor and Gluten Free blog on Google+, Facebook, Pinterest or Twitter to stay up to date on happenings here (ok, not a rule, just a little shameless self-promotion).

4) Don't have a blog? No worries! Share your tips or recipes in the comments section.
