SNL
Just some weekend entertainment for you...
Has everyone else been enjoying Saturday Night Live lately as much as I have? It seems that the show is experiencing a resurgence from capitalizing on all the political drama this fall. I haven't been staying up late to watch it, but I like to catch up by watching online afterwards (less commercials) when I have some downtime... or when I just feel like procrastinating on what I should be doing :) If you enjoy that kind of humor, it is stinkin' funny!

For the Weekend...
Thanks goes to Michele for sharing this fun and silly quiz!
You can check out the extensive List of All BlogThings if you seriously have too much time on your hands. (I am trying to tell myself here that I shouldn't be on the computer right now- I don't have time to kill - I have other stuff to do!)

A Sassier Shade of Green...
That's what Ideal Bite is all about. Two years ago, I randomly found them through a Wild Oats Market flyer. I looked up their website and thought, "Hey, this is cool! These guys are into saving the environment while being hip, not hippies. And they are hilarious, to boot!"
What they do: Send daily green-living tips via email. Each day it is different. They include the why's, the how-to's, and lots of other helpful facts. Somtimes there are weekly themes.
Here's a sample of one from last week on using vinegar. I know, it's a pretty well-known idea, but this is too valuable to not share with you. (Usually the tips are more unique, albeit still practical.)
Somedays I read the tips more intently than others. But I almost always read them, just because they are so cleverly written that they are fun to read.
To me, the best part of the Ideal Bite Daily Tips, is that all the research is done for you! Just by receiving these daily tips, I have become more aware of my everyday choices and their impact on the environment. But even more importantly, thanks to the folks at Ideal Bite, I am now more knowledgeable regarding practical alternatives to these choices as well.
I think it is so fabulous that the folks at Ideal Bite are spreading eco-consciousness in an appealing fashion. You may have noticed I've had their link listed under "Resources" ever since I started this blog. I wanted to share them with you so that you could have the chance to enjoy their witty, green-living tips, too. Signing up is FREE! (I guess they make their money on advertising or something. I haven't noticed any increased junk email. I'm pretty positive they have a policy against that. And you can unsubscribe at any time.)
But, guess what, this gets even better... recently I was on their website looking for an Ideal Bite banner - to post on my sidebar, promoting them - and I discovered they have an affiliate program. What that means is that when you click on the box on my sidebar (on the right-hand side of this page) and sign up to receive their daily emails, Little Home benefits. It is nothing much - but hey, it's something for something that I was going to share about anyways.
Even more: If you are cool enough to live in a ultra-eco-hip urban area, Ideal Bite offers specialized local tips for certain metropolitan areas. But what I'm excited about is their Mama Bite tips starting in October. I have signed up for those, too, and will be letting you know when those start rolling out.
But in the meantime, no one should be missing out on the original Daily Tips! They are applicable anywhere. So click here or on the box down on the right-hand side of this page, and it will take you right through to the simple sign-up.
I hope you get as much of a kick out of these as I do. And hopefully our precious Earth will feel the love, as well.
Works for Me!

How to Pray?
This wikiHow on How To Pray caught my eye today on the Google homepage... I read it out of curiousity because I knew it would span various religions.
WikiHow is certainly not the best guide for prayer, but I think it gives some great reminders in it if your prayer life is feeling dry. I was pleased to find it includes some practices and tips that I feel are important for Christians.
Step 5 kind of made me laugh, but yet it is the most critical... Begin the Prayer!

I Love Flax Seed
When I was baking oatmeal cookies tonight, I thought of another reason I like cooking with ground flax seed...
When you use it as an egg substitute (1T. flax seed + 3 T. water = 1 egg), you can eat all the cookie dough or cake batter you want without worrying about salmonella! :)
Not that that ever stopped me from licking the spoon before...

A Satire
So… I like to start off the week with a good laugh – at myself!
This is off the beaten path for my blog, so PLEASE heed the following warnings.
Family friendly: no
Offensive: possibly
Thought provoking: maybe
Hilarious?: I thought so!
