Best Green Indoor Gardening Tip

Water indoor plants with bath water or put a bucket or open top watering can in the shower with you (or even outside in Oregon during winter months). Indoor plants will get plenty of water and you'll save on your water bill by turning on the faucet one less time per week. Best-loved green tips won't cost money but save it.

Best Loved Candle

In my house I like to burn soy or vegetable based candles because they burn cleaner than petroleum based ones. My Best-Loved soy candle is by Method, its readily accessible and inexpensive, 40 hrs of burn time for 7.99 at Target. Spiced Pear, a holiday scent you can score for 3.98 right now, and Vanilla Apple from their regular line are irresistibly sweet.

Best Rooibos Tea

My mom recently got me hooked on Zingiber Ginger Coconut, a caffeine free rooibos tea. I find myself adding sugar to a lot of teas but not this one. Ingredients include ginger, coconut, cinnamon, apples, cardamom, black pepper, and almonds. Even if this tea wasn't easily accessible to me through online ordering I would still treck the two hours to washington square mall to refill my tin before it got low.

Best Crispy Rice Treats Recipe

Clicking the link below will take you directly to a recipe for my favorite version of a rice crispy treat. If your not a fan of dried cherries substitute dark chocolate chips, yum. For a healthier spin on Marshmallow Rice Crispy Treats just substitute Crispy Brown Rice Cereal in your usual recipe.
