We decided to celebrate his birthday a week [...] I really did not have anything planned for the 4th of July,except making homemade quinoa mac-n-cheese for the kids.

This year we decided to create raised beds in an area we cleared last [...] I know many of you were interested in my first blog on plastics and toxins in our houses (CLICK HERE for my previous blog). In that blog I breifly discussed BPA in canned foods. Recently,I came across this new article on BPA free canned foods.
