Kyle and Sally Have Three Tips for Your Well Being

Here are three tips for better living from Kyle and Sally. Feel free to comment and leave some of YOUR tips!


1. Play Cribbage at least once daily. Playing cribbage is not only good for your mind (research shows that playing cards regularly decreases your risk of developing Alzheimer's!!), but it's good for your relationships because you are forced to stop running around getting things done and just pay attention to each other. It also saves you money on going out on a date if you just want to be with your loved one. :) Another beautiful thing about Cribbage is that as long as you have a deck of cards you can play. You don't necessarily have to even have a board! To learn to play visit this link: http://entertainment.howstuffworks.com/how-to-play-cribbage.htm

2. Never let leftovers sit in your fridge longer than 24 hours. Now this one is a tough one and we are definatley still working on getting it right. The average American wastes over ONE POUND of food daily. That is a really terrible and ridiculous thing when there are so many hungry people in this world. It's also pretty terrible considering the current cost of groceries. I try to make foods for dinner that store well in the fridge that way we will actually look forward to eating them for lunch and dinner the next day. Like I said, we are still trying to get this one right, and sometimes still go 36 hours without finishing that dinner for before.

3. Cloth Diaper your child. We started cloth diapering when Lilian was nine months mostly out of frustration because Lilian suffered from AWFUL diaper rash and we were also paying waaaay too much in diapers that just got tossed out. We slowly added cloth diapers to our stash including prefolds (the good old fashioned kind) and fancy new fangled ones like Bum Genious'. The more diapers you have does give you longer to go without washing which saves time, energy and money.
