The Friday 15

I love that our library checks out eBooks. I don't even have to go into the library. I can just sit at home and check out the book and read it on my iPad. Easy peasy. This month I've been reading a new book called The Year of Less by Cait Flanders. (Actually the full title is The Year of Less: How I Stopped Shopping, Gave Away My Belongings, and Discovered Life is Worth More Than Anything You Can Buy in a Store but I went with, well, less.) Reading books like this one provides motivation to keep going.

Motivation to keep purchases to a minimum.

Motivation to keep donating/discarding 15 items each week.

This week's pile is a hodgepodge of things. Mostly they are things I had stuck in the bottom drawer of my nightstand. Basically another pile of junk I don't need.

Sew Quick and Easy Homemade Potholders - Tutorial Tuesday Flashback

In the spirit of simplicity, for the month of January I am re-sharing some of my most popular YouTube videos. Today we have a quick and easy potholder tutorial from seven years ago, almost to the exact day. It's also the tutorial where our kitty thought she needed to provide her own commentary at the two minute mark.
