Another newbie!

Post: # 204432Post Bikil »

Just saying hello from Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.
A little about me:
Mid-30's woman sharing a house with three other adults and our three kids. Working towards being as self-sufficient and green as possible, but having trouble figuring it all out. Grant writer and Mommy by trade.

Just here to learn more from everyone!

Thanks everyone! I'm excited to search about. I am especially interested in the parenting and the thread about zucchini because we currently have it coming out of our collective wazoos in our garden! Hee!

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
