A Blog For A Greener Tomorrow

I recently came across a cool blog that shares ways to live a greener way of life. These are simple little things that do not require much effort but do challenge our daily way of life. Like breaking out that bike instead of the usual commute of your automobile and with the gas prices right now I totally agree. If every one elected to travel without the use of gasoline at least once a week, we would considerably lower the toxic fuel emissions while sending a message across seas, We don't need you.
Another favorite blog post was about the importance of compost. This is huge. Imagine creating a rich soil exploding in organic nutrients that you made yourself? I stand by this method for recycling all my veggie scraps, yard clippings, even egg shells.
http://ourtinyearth.wordpress.com/ is a great site to learn about living greener, I particularly love the easy links to other sites with great cooking info. So if you are looking for a cool site as well as links to awesome food pics and recipes that are out of this world check it out!!

Theses recipes with cranberries are a bit out of the box and will test your palette's threshold, which does not mean I am going to be sharing my recipe for sweetbreads and cranberry demi glaze, although very delectable not many like sweetbreads and they can be challenging to find.
