Day #6 #NoPaperTowels and I have to say that I had forgotten the effectiveness of a good piece of terrycloth on polishing the stove until it is beaming! Now maybe some of you would not have used paper towel for this job in the first place, but all I know is if it had been sitting right there next to me, it probably would have been the thing that I grabbed. #earthseeddetroit #urbanfarmgirl #sustainableliving #sustainablelifestyle #zerowaste #detroit #nyc #chicago #elbowgrease

But first coffee! Good wonderous day to you all! French pressed, Pete's Major Dickason's Blend, coconut creamer and turbo sugar. This is how I take mine. And I invest in my home brew with freshly ground beans and a dash of healthy cinnamon. This investment cost me way less than going to a coffee shop and getting their overpriced beverages every morning. I still treat myself every now and then to a coffee shop coffee, but why not treat myself at home? . . . . . . #treatyoself #coffee #coffeelover #coffeetime #morningcoffee #majordickasonsblend #petes #petescoffee #coffeeagogo #detroit #chicago #nyc #drink #beverage #hotcoffee

Ok. Winner winner veg sausage dinner! Woah!! And it's not the texture… Because there is definitely a smoother, nonmeat texture... but the flavor is so delicious! It is really a worthwhile cheat meat. . . . #earthseeddetroit #urbanfarmgirl #vegetarian #vegsausage #yum #foodie #foodist

Nice for a couple hours of work! . . . . . I am fortunate to have friends who gifted me with a large amount of peppers from their garden. Cooking and making things to eat is therapeutic for me so I thought this would be a perfect activity for turbulent times. . . . . #pickledpeppers #bananapeppers #localfood #tomatopickles #gardenfresh #earthseeddetroit #urbanfarmgirl #diypickles #easypeasy #foodist #foodistmusings #foodstagram #detroit #chicago #nyc #foodjustice

I was also given a large amount of perfect green tomatoes. Yes I am going to fry some tomorrow… But I also decided to make some green tomato pickles. . . . . #tomatopickles #greentomatoes #localfood #gardenfresh #earthseeddetroit #urbanfarmgirl #diypickles #easypeasy #foodist #foodistmusings #foodstagram #detroit #chicago #nyc #foodjustice

Exploring the great outdoors right in our own backyard. This is a Shaggy Mane mushroom. Also known as "Lawyer's Wig" (love that!) or Shaggy Ink Cap. I don't know much about mushrooms, i am just learning. **NO EATING UNLESS 1000% SURE ITS EDIBLE** This one says although edible, can be poisonous if consumed with alcohol (even if the alcohol is consumed a few days later.) so i wouldn't indulge. They are very pretty though. . . . . . . . #mushrooms #mushroomsofinstagram #mushroomID #survivalskills #outside #knownature #EarthseedDetroit #UrbanFarmgirl
