Fourth of July Tips
I love the week of 4th of July. It just feels like, well, summer to me.
I’m off to California to speak at the “greenest fair on Earth” at the Marin County Fair right outside of San Francisco. It’s one of those fun old fashioned county fairs with farm booths, pie-eating contests, ferris wheels and cotton candy. I’ll take lots of photos. If you’re in Marin County, come see me on Wednesday, July 2nd at 6PM. I’m giving away a free Simmons Natural Care by Danny Seo mattress!
Anyway, here are some fun eco-entertaining tips from my book “Simply Green Parties” that you can use for your own summer parties this week. First up: lemon scented hand towels.
Just grab some small towels and soak them in ice water with a squeezed lemon. Ring them up, roll them up and serve with a lemon slice on top. They’ll refresh and disinfect at the same time.
For corn on the cob, just grab some twigs from the yard and sharpen them up in a pencil sharpener. Jab, grill, enjoy!
It’s easy to make your own healthy popsicles. You find these molds in the kitchen supply aisle. Just fill it up with a fruity sports drink, insert popsicle sticks and freeze. Full of vitamins and much healthier than regular sugar pops.
I just wanted to stop and say hello, since I have had way too much fun digging around your blog this afternoon. It’s nice to see someone else addicted to junk, and who enjoys decorating with found objects as much as I do!
I’ve really enjoyed reading your earlier blogs. Is there any way to access the blogs earlier than 10 months ago?
Marin County was my home stomping grounds for 5 years after I graduated college! I’m envious of your visit. Enjoy the beauty and have a great time speaking!
Blessings,
Amy
excellent tips ! The lemon towels never thought of that…
Great idea about making your own popsicles but remember that most sport drinks contain a TON of sugar so it’s better to make your popsicles with some organic juice!
