What is wilson silverleaf? We're organitarians; it's best for our bodies and the planet. We cloth diapered Nina for the same reason. We drive a hybrid car & wish we could afford solar panels on our house. I'm a strong advocate for homebirth, full-time mom, & also a movie junkie. We don't have a tv though; we watch dvds on our computer. We love contradancing. I garden & knit; Larry's a puzzle lover & plays fantasy football.

promise fulfilled

Way back in February Soccermom Jane challenged us to do more for the environment and I promised to start hanging my clothes out to dry. After all, it is sunny almost all the time here and there is no good reason I can't take advantage of that to conserve a little gas. I really hate the feel of line-dried clothes so I will fluff them up for 15 minutes when they're done outside, but that's better than the hour they take to dry with no assistance from the sun.

The drying rack I really wanted was this one from Gaiam, but at 89$ plus shipping, it seemed a little steep for right now. So I went to IKEA and got this one instead. It was under 20$ and is supposed to be ok to leave outside.

That's a great idea. Our condo complex disallows it though! Maybe I should run for the Board (not right now though).
