Why Isn't Camping as Popular as it Used to Be?

There are many reasons why camping is not as popular as it used to be. The main reason is that people are no longer interested in roughing it with tents, sleeping bags, and cooking over a campfire.

The goal is to reduce the amount of waste in our land. Some people are not aware that they can recycle items such as glass, plastic, and paper. The best way to recycle these items is to put them into the blue recycling bin so they don't end up in the landfill. The goal is to reduce the amount of waste in our land.

Organizing your closet is a daunting task. To make it easier, we can break the project into three phases: clothes, shoes, and everything else.

Phase 1: Clothes

Most people will have a lot of clothes, and sorting them into piles is the best way to get started. Throw out anything with stains

2. Sort by type - Tops, bottoms, dresses, jeans, etc.

3. Sort by season - spring/summer/fall/ - Sort your clothes by type (pants, shirts, dresses) and color. - Place like items together in stacks on the floor or bed. - Put all of the clothes you don’t wear in one pile and store them elsewhere. - Sort by season to make sure you don’t forget about anything that needs to be put away for next year or stored for later use.

Phase 2: Shoes - Store all of your shoes together in one area of your closet with like items on top of each other. This will also help you find your shoes much faster.- Place all of your shoes on the floor or bed with your feet up against a wall to make them easier to see.- Sort by type and color so that you can identify the ones you like better and don’t like so much, as well as what to wear with what.

Phase 3: Everything Else - Sort everything else by category.

For example Jewelry, scarves, belts, purses, hats/caps.- Place all of your accessories together in one area with like items on top of each other so it’s easier to find the item you are looking for.- Sort by category again so that you can identify specific items.

The first thing that you need to do is to make sure that your house is tidy and organized before you start cleaning. This will save a lot of time and energy because it will be easier to find things while cleaning.

In order to make your house look neat and tidy, try these tips:

- Clean off surfaces with a damp cloth or paper towel

Cleaning surfaces is an important part of home maintenance. When it comes to cleaning surfaces, a damp cloth or paper towel should always be used. This will allow for the surface to dry, which will prevent mold and other growth from happening.

It is important to set up a schedule for yourself. You should plan out the tasks that need to be done on any given day and stick to them so that you don't have too many things left over at the end of the week. It is also important to remember that this process will take some time, so make sure you allow enough time for it in your schedule.

Tree Hut Strawberry Sugar Scrub

I was introduced to Tree Hut products for the first time last year, and I’m so happy that I’m now getting the opportunity to experience the Strawberry Shea Sugar Scrub. I just love how this scrub makes my skin feel and has so many amazing benefits for my skin. Strawberry is known to contain skin-loving antioxidants and brighten Vitamin C while also adding juicy hydration. Sugar is a natural exfoliant that effectively polishes away dead skin while helping to boost circulation to the skin surface. Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) penetrates deeply into pores to dissolve oil and dead skin cells, revealing clearer, more even-looking skin. Plus, Natural Shea Butter is known to deeply moisturize, nourish and soften dry skin while helping to promote elasticity, and the Natural Oils condition skin to help prevent dryness and balance hydration for a refined, healthy glow. The Strawberry Shea Sugar Scrub smells like a sweet summer treat with keynotes of fresh strawberry, pink pineapple, and peach blossom. The winter months can cause havoc on your skin, and I’m so happy that I have Strawberry Shea Sugar Scrub from Tree Hut as part of my self-care routine. Plus, it also makes the perfect gift to include in wellness baskets for the moms in your life.

An Easter Charcuterie Board is a great way to incorporate your favorite meats, cheeses, and other delicious ingredients into a festive appetizer. This section will teach you how to make an Easter Charcuterie Board for your family and friends. The Easter holiday is just around the corner and it's time to put together a delicious charcuterie board for all your guests. A charcuterie board is a great way to have something delicious and beautiful that will last through the whole party.

This article will show you how to make an Easter Charcuterie Board. It's a good idea to make your own charcuterie board for Easter because it's more personal and special. You can put your own personal stamp on the board by adding different types of meats, cheeses, and other items. The first step is to choose the board that you want to use. The most common type of board is a wooden cutting board. This type of board usually has a groove in the middle which makes it easier for you to cut your meats and cheeses on either side of the groove. You can also use an old cutting sheet or any other type of surface that is flat and sturdy enough for cutting on. Next, you need to decide what kind of meat you want on your board. You can use a wide variety of meats such as ham, bologna, salami, beef tongue, and beef jerky. Next, you need to decide what kind of cheese you want on the board. You can choose from a variety of cheeses such as Parmesan cheese, Gouda cheese, blue, or Roquefort.

First, we will need to go shopping for the ingredients. You will need:

- Freshly baked bread

- A jar of mustard

- A jar of pickles

- A jar of olives

- Brie cheese

- Prosciutto ham

- Thinly sliced salami

Next, we will need to set up our board. We will set it up with a cutting board and then place the bread in the center. We will then place a layer of brie cheese on top of the bread followed by a layer of prosciutto ham and thinly sliced salami. We should end this by placing another layer of brie cheese.

Happy Monday! It was gorgeous outside on Saturday, I'm so looking forward to more consistent warmer days in Connecticut. I'm truly thankful that we're getting closer to summer though...

How was your weekend?

Attire Breakdown  

 

We're offically in April, and I'm loving it, loving the warmer days, and the little things in life. below, I'm sharing five things I'm proud of in the month of march.

Camera
I've gotten more in the habit of using my camera, and I'm loving that about me, I simply love the quality of my photos, and videos with my camera.

Garden
I ordered a ton of seeds this month, and they came in the mail. I'm excited about trying new plants.

Self Care
I incorporated more self-care days and moments in the month of March. Which I’m really proud of. I’ve come to the realization that sometimes when you’re unable to have self-care days you can always create self-care moments.

Spring Cleaning
I'm super product of myself for kick-starting spring cleaning. I still have some ways to go, I'm happy that I got started though.

Simple Pleasures
I visted one of my favrotie spots to take photos, it was so nice to be outside, and be in the moment.
