onthebalancebeam: April 2011

http://onthebalancebeam.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

All shades of green. I read 'The Green Matketing Manifesto' for the first time when still at the Uni. Initially it marvelled me, then I became more sceptical and started to think of it as a cynical guide on how to make people believe that they buy something more than they actually purchase, even if they don't. Finally, I got to read author's blog. And I now I think that he truly believes in green marketing. For girls' eyes only. Seriously guys, it's a girlie topic so stop reading now! Is it for everyone?

You should know by now that I'm all for recycling and reusing stuff. I try to buy less, cut down on my household waste and give unwanted objects new life. Plus the things you can craft can be really funky! Like that amazing shopping bag made out of and old T-shirt. All you need is a pair of scissors and a simple tutorial. From Lee Meredith @ leethal.net. Last weekend I visited Worton Organic Garden. Wake Up, Freak Out - then Get a Grip. World Environment Day 2011. This year the focus is on forests, their...

onthebalancebeam: Make most of your meal

http://onthebalancebeam.blogspot.com/2012/01/make-most-of-your-meal.html

Make most of your meal. In other words - they are good and deserve to be rewarded for their efforts with your custom. SRA's latest initiative - Too Good To Waste. Tackles a restaurant food waste problem. I am never shy about asking for a doggy bag for my leftovers but now I will get them in a stylish, 100% biodegradable box. Result!

onthebalancebeam: May 2011

http://onthebalancebeam.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

Knitting the knots, knotting the knits. I got another beautiful gift. My mum-in-law gave me a knitted blouse, made of 100% unbleached linen, with wooden buttons. It's simply gorgeous. New piece of garment made me think again of sustainable fibre, something I have already briefly mentioned here. I researched the topic, learned few things, disagreed with few opinions and decided what my top 3 'green fibres' are:. Cotton: if organically grown and dyed with biodegradable dyes. Biggest disappointment - Bamboo!

onthebalancebeam: I am back! And with a New Year's pud.

http://onthebalancebeam.blogspot.com/2012/01/i-am-back-and-with-new-years-pud.html

And with a New Year's pud. So here I am. I won't even try to explain why I haven't posted anything for over six months, let's just say that I'm glad to be back. And it's thanks to my best friend, who promised to follow the updates and make sure that there are enough of them. Especially for you A., to commemorate our New Year's celebrations: my first chocolate pudding (recipe from one of Lorraine Pascale's. Books). It sure tasted great :). To infinity and beyond!

onthebalancebeam: 'On the twelfth day of Christmas....'

http://onthebalancebeam.blogspot.com/2012/01/on-twelfth-day-of-christmas.html

On the twelfth day of Christmas.'. Do you know anyone who doesn't overindulge during the festive season? I don't. That's why we all need a bit of a detox this time of year. Frankly, I think that fancy yogurts and herbal infusions are overrated. I go for a simple breakfast that is high in complex carbs, dairy-free and delicious. My recipe was inspired by several versions found on the net. You need just five ingredients:. Vanilla pod (or extract). Runny honey / golden syrup. London, United Kingdom.

One of my favourite childhood cartoons. Still rocks! I am all for recycling but that seems to be a bit extreme. There are other ways to make sure that your crafty works are sustainable without necessarily collecting your pet's hair (btw, I wonder if you could knit with hamster hair? And if you still want to go with the new, think of two things: how sustainable the manufacturing process was and what the 'afterlife' of the yarn would be like (is it biodegradable? Can you knit with it again and again? Londo...
