Hey, now that you've done cloth diape...Awesome! Hey, now that you've done cloth diapering and mama cloth, why not go whole hog and do family cloth?! :D I jest. (A little!) This was the one change where I got the biggest eyebrow raises from everyone in my family. However, my (then) 8 year old niece was sooo fascinated by it and every time she came over she wanted a tutorial in how to use it. (lol!) Personally, I found the savings on toilet paper more than enough to justify its use, though I have to admit, I also like environmental aspects as well. <br /><br />OK, was that TMI? If so, sorry! Please then amend my comment to read, "We love our CSA and all the weird vegetables too! Though you can keep the kohlrabi - cause ain't nobody got time for that."Sara at CatholicAgainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12781915626347394052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232664651858738176.post-37745571815863221662016-05-20T22:11:17.626-05:002016-05-20T22:11:17.626-05:00I agree with AnneMarie-- location didn't cause...I agree with AnneMarie-- location didn't cause crunchiness for us, just increasing frugality and information. For my family it's come about slower, though. :)Alicia @ Sweeping Up Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18166554346293304750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232664651858738176.post-6052034731582002772016-05-20T12:49:14.067-05:002016-05-20T12:49:14.067-05:00Haha Kirby, this is great :) My descent into crunc...Haha Kirby, this is great :) My descent into crunchiness didn't come about because of a physical location change, but just gradually over time with the influence of some of my friends and my growing love of self-sustainability and independence (and frugality). I was actually highly amused when my husband and I visited my parents a month ago-we hadn't really visited them since Christmas, and in that span of 4 months, based on their reactions, I guess I became a lot more hippie/crunchy than I had been. I had my parents & sister sitting around cutting out fabric for mama cloth, cloth diapering wipes, and baby carriers, and all the while was discussing how I no longer use shampoo :P AnneMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462442204217572325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232664651858738176.post-82349470267095403352016-05-20T11:26:51.480-05:002016-05-20T11:26:51.480-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08620831747412791791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-232664651858738176.post-30192157977340918222016-05-20T11:26:33.007-05:002016-05-20T11:26:33.007-05:00The Bay Area does it to you!
