Love your talkie/rant videos recently, but also love seeing how you move through your life to continue living sustainably. It doesn’t feel important to show but I think a lot of ppl need to see deep cleaning, mending, shopping with reusable bags, renting things, etc… to normalize doing these things because I think a lot of us are so used to our throw away culture. We don’t get to see ppl living sustainably around us and then get embarrassed to do it by ourselves. So these like going about your sustainability routines in the everyday make me feel validated in looking a little strange sometimes lol.

[@NortherlyK]

I love that heirloom quality is becoming a more popular concept. 💚

[@ah5721]

Cast iron well kept is heirloom😉

[@aurorapapillon4883]

Would love to see you doing more vlogs featuring repairs, mending and just everyday sustainable habits. It makes it more tangible, and always good to see someone unskilled prove that even someone like me can repair some things

[@karaleigh_eva]

Decluttering in a low-waste way is so stressful for me. Like there are so many steps to take and the idea of just like throwing it all out the window and easily never having to think about it again is so tempting TT

[@kandiscaldwell5459]

Anytime we actually end up having a paper napkin, like eating from a restaurant or being at the airport. I flatten out those used napkins, and save them to clean out the rest of my compost bin. Since paper napkins can be composted, it's even better.

[@Huggible11]

I have colored rags for cleaning projects. So in the bathroom we have a white rag for the white toilet and we have a blue rag that's for cleaning the sink as "blue is not for poo". We have had a pink rag at one time and it was "pink for the sink". So we never mixed up our toilet rags (even when cleaned) accidentally.

[@mayjunejulia]

And vice versa for people from British English regions: blue for the loo 😉

[@Huggible11]

@@mayjunejulia Haha well of we ever get pink rags again (or another color for the sink), we can easily downgrade our blue rags then 😆

[@copperlocs6569]

The vlog style is my favorite! I've been missing your content and would love a second part.

[@av-qf3uu]

A suggestion for decluttering vs being sustainable: I would suggest filling a box with clutter and putting it somewhere you don’t normally look and if you don’t think of anything in the bin for the next few months then donate it!

[@debbiford]

Bathroom cleaning cloths tip...blue for loo, pink for sink :)

[@chantal2067]

This is the first long-form content of yours that I've watched and I keep coming back to this video as I get my home ready for spring. There's something really chill and personable about your approach to sustainability that I love, plus you have a beautiful home and the lighting/style of this video is immaculate to me. Thank you for sharing!

[@RaccoonLaundry]

My cat has asthma too! It was so bad for a long time, but with consistent inhaler use over about 6 months, it got SO much better! He's now a year asthma-attack-free, after it was several times a week! We got an air purifier too to keep in the room he spends most of his time, and he's gotten even better!! Keep listening to your vet and don't give up hope! 💪

[@annikaParnda]

Petition for the editor to put degrees in Celsius on the screen because I'm lazy and don't want to Google every time but still do because I'm also too curious 😂

[@rrg419]

90 F is a touch over 32C

[@jbslimshaddy]

Right!! Haha

[@christinescorner1858]

I love how Madison went from never wanting her face in videos to bending over on camera for us xD Madison, we love you and appreciate you so so so much lol

[@risxra]

I like this style! I think sometimes I need to see sustainable practices like the ones you talk about actually, like, in /practice/ to really get how easy some of the switches can be.

[@rcksmacias1]

hack for the freezer bin - get the compostable small bags (biobags) and use it as a liner! its been a game changer for us and an allows us to not worry about how wet something is and if it will come out!

[@Beepaq56]

✨7 seconds✨ I've truly never been so early for a video in my entire life. Was searching for a video to watch and got your notification 😂

[@Megan-nt7dm]

I have been using a cloth to clean the toilet, i just clean everything else in the bathrooms that needs doing first, then do the toilets, and then it just goes in the wash

[@claralichti6720]

I do the same thing! I think it works just fine and as long as the cloth is only used in the bathroom I don’t really see a hygienic issue!

[@susanhoover1820]

Take an old wooden spoon with you to the bin and scrape the remnants into the bin. It’s so easy!

[@bandz27]

lol Texas, where you call spring 90 degrees. Where I live, that’s the height of summer.

[@risxra]

Same, Austin seems like such a great city but I don’t think I could survive somewhere where it gets that high in /April/😂

[@LaikasFriend]

Where do you live? I might need to move, our height of summer last year was 117 🥴

[@NinaCasali]

I use baking soda for a ton, but when you combine baking soda and an acid like vinegar or lemon they neutralize eachother.

[@baysustainable811]

Such fun to hang out while also getting work done! I love body doubling with my favorite youtubers.

[@alykat91]

I bought a speedweave to help me repair clothes and it was a total game changer! It helps you make patches with just embroidery thread.

[@michelleoh2735]

That store is amazing. I wish we had something like this. We don't get 90 degrees days until July or August thank goodness. Just the thought of that makes me nearly cry.

[@melissaf8332]

My husband bought me a set of GreenPan cookware when I gave my old ceramic pans to a friend in need. I cannot rave about them enough. The quality is amazing. Love this type of video and watching how your brain works similar to my own.

[@carlijn96]

Yes! Been waiting for a video like this. Excited to see your eco friendly routine! 🌿

[@JeweliettePearson]

I love watching these videos while I'm cleaning my kitchen! It's like we're getting stuff done together lol please make more :)

[@caffeinated_25]

13:11 the way people drive!!!! The amount of times that people have cut me off, completely ignored me or went when it should’ve been my turn is insane. I ride an Urban Arrow. You see me! I know you do!

[@risxra]

17:25 this might just be rewording what Shelby said but imo the biggest question you should ask yourself is “what can this be used for?” Like you might be tempted to keep something because you know it has a lot of uses, but if none of those uses are relevant to your life, it’s not worth it. For example, I used to keep paper shopping bags all the time because that material is so reusable, but as the bags kept piling up, I realized I wasn’t actually doing anything with them, so I recycled them. It comes down to what works for you :)

[@trilobit4640]

i really like this format of video, bc it's informative but maybe more importantly it's seeing a person living their life and kind of normalize doing these things? Also I love seeing your chickens!! My family have chickens and they're really the best pets, so sociable and sweet and you get eggs, they take care of food waste and their poop is the best fertilizer! your girls are so pretty

[@zoisapeers676]

Just to say, I loved this format of video! Really engaging and interesting to watch, please do more like this!

[@Ayshafr]

"Hole is gone" was so funny to me 😂 good job, reminding me of the tower of clothes in my to-mend pile

[@tamerasides3425]

Adding a bit of lemon juice to the mix of cleaning your pans helps greatly.

[@tangledkelpp]

I love Dr Bronners, I use them for literally EVERYTHING - body wash, dish soap, surface cleaner, etc.

[@ashleycorinne2207]

I absolutely love your vlog style videos! Just chatty catching up and getting things done. They’re so inspiring and motivating. I’m actually assembling my compost tumbler as I’m watching this lol!

[@melissa31793]

Re. Cloths to clean the toilet. I colour code my cloths to separate toilet/bathroom cloths from kitchen cloths. You could also embroider a little symbol on them to indicate the use :)

[@najah.7626]

About that reusable cloth. Bacteria dies when over 75 degrees Celsius or 167 degrees Fahrenheit. So if your washer can go over that you are all good!

[@HeyLauryn]

Good to know about the cleaning pots and pans. I’ve been scrubbing a few of my greenpans with normal soap and nothing was working

[@ciennalindsay4706]

If you have a citrus essential oil, it works just as good as goo gone as well!! I clean my toilet with reusable microfiber cloths. To make it a little more hygienic, I separate the ones I use for the toilet specifically (by color) and I use diff colors for food and kitchen cleaning!

[@jennyjenkins877]

I like your environmentally friendly replacement for Goo Gone but thought you'd want to be aware that microplastics are in your cloths that shed when rinsed and washed so they end up in our waterways.

[@cscriv5259]

The “bend over” made me laugh and spit out my coffee. Hilarious!

[@kendramcx]

I haven't avidly watched you in a couple years. You are looking so gorgeous and healthy, this way of life is definitely the way, I just need to get disciplined😭

[@GraceAredel]

I just wanted to say how much I missed you on KZbin! So happy that you are healthy again!

[@IWillSayItLouder]

Mixing baking soda and any kind of oil works just as well as goo gone :D

[@ocblackburn]

Fellow Austinite! Love you and your style, you have a new sub!

[@Ally-ug3nq]

I really enjoyed this video 😊😁🎥 and it would be great if you could do seasonal Sunday resets. I look forward to part two 😊 I use reusable cloths for cleaning my bathroom and toilet. I down cycle toothbrushes as cleaning tools. I have a variety of reusable items for cleaning my house. I like them 😁 and they work well for me 🎉

[@its.rachel.hickey]

Yeeesss for a Part 2!!!👏 I love your vloggy videos! And your info videos too. Anything and everything!

[@noelparker741]

I enjoy these longer-form videos for sure

[@tricksykenbbit1997]

I'd love to see more spring or everyday cleaning and stuff like this.

[@willowbosela]

I have really liked Biom wipes for my toilet! They come in a reusable container and then when you re-order in a pouch. The wipes are composable. I only use them on my toilet so they last quite a while. Not a perfect solution but a good one if you’re grossed out by toilets like me 😅

[@aliciacase4836]

Yes! Loved this video - so helpful to see the pans and the sustainable products and tricks you use to get the job done. Thank you and more please x

[@kimayaj22]

love the bangs ✨

[@melissamunoz2116]

❤ Very helpful cleaning pans , I'm inspired because I was going to buy new ones but not anymore

[@jenna9499]

I've missed you very much. Vlog style is a favorite of mine. So happy to see your face :)

[@astro_jasper_tillo_fanclub]

Love this style of your vids. Love hanging out with a fellow crafty gal virtually!

[@andrea_tv_]

To get annoying goo off glass make a paste with oil (I used regular vegetable oil) and baking soda. Cover the sticky/gooey part with the paste and let it sit for about 15 min. Then scrub :)

[@mariahgeiger-williams9230]

I looooooved this and cleaned right alongside you. Would love to see more!

[@Klara_is_finding_herself]

Yay, I'm so excited to watch this video 💛 Happy Spring 🌼

[@mariak9085]

You are my first stop before going shopping. I honestly hope to achieve your level of commitment to sustainability and prosperity! 🌳🏝🐉 It’s always refreshing to put into perspective how marketing makes me want to buy more, but the quality isn’t being added with quantity. Everything will become normal to a person after sometime. Mass consuming media has effects on mental perception that last indefinitely without regulations and clear boundaries set in place.

[@MMHay16]

re: repairing clothing, Morgan Donner did a video recently that I really loved about making conspicuous, beautiful repairs! Obviously that's not the vibe everyone is going for or wanting but I'm planning to try some of them soon!

[@callumm1]

Would love a part 2! Found this video really helpful 😊

[@rachelm9925]

I appreciate the variety in your content even if the algorithm does not ❤

[@shirleycarvajal193]

I had no idea that whenever you mentioned your buy nothing group it was an actual webpage/app lol. I always thought it was like a fb group but I’m glad you showed it a bit, thank you!

[@thatjillgirl]

A lot of them do operate as Facebook groups. Mine does.

[@danielisr.lebron-morales208]

Love ya girly! Can you make more videos on how to be more involved in your community please? (Specifically for people wondering what they can do for their community. )

[@jillianharringtonperkins]

We have a compost penthouse in our freezer lol, the top shelf left side is solely for food scraps and it is slowly expanding to take up the whole shelf because we keep forgetting to take it to the community compost drop-off

[@kaitydoes2185]

I’m going to need weekly uploads 😂 I’ve miss seeing your content and your tips on sustainability

[@ema19899]

I immediately put my compost bin in the freezer after you suggested to do so! The one I have is pretty small and I usually don’t have too much food in my freezer.

[@eloyoneill3875]

Love this style of video so much! Please do a part 2 ❤

[@ak-no2wo]

such good vibes love your vlog style vids!!

[@michelleheegaard]

18:20 In Denmark, I'd say it's super normal to use reusable cloths to clean your toilet. I'm pretty sure it's the norm in most homes, so yeah, I'd say it's safe. You put it to the wash afterwards after all and if you wash it on 60 or 90 degrees celsius, all bacteria would be killed next time you use it.

[@karachiodo2973]

Love this type of video! Please do part two!

[@batgirl.aka.batbrain3822]

Thrive also now takes EBT as a payment. I was so excited when they announced they finally got approval. ❤

[@maddylovesgood]

i am totally copying the shallow glassbowl idea! it is very needed lol

[@Gud712]

I really like this kind of videos and would love to see part 2. I'm almost done reading fiber fueled by will bulsiewicz and he has some interesting facts about food insensitivities in there and also just cool stuff about properties of different plant foods 😃

[@Sydiee]

I like this type of video, its conversational but also informative!

[@BirdiNerdi1225]

Thank you for inspiring me to actually get a start on my own spring cleaning projects!

[@jessicasantos6690]

Love this video! Cleaning, and sustainability. 😎

[@lindsaytoussaint]

Yeah I leave my compost in the fridge too. I just have to walk 2 or 5 blocks to drop it off (depending of if the closest one is already full or not 😅 but at least the app we have tells you if it’s full!)

[@swappilynn]

I use one side of my sink for compost and use the red, plastic folders can with the lid. I need it close to coffee maker because I use the Keurig fillable pods and need to dump them after each use. They get messy but saves alot of coffee and plastic. I also use dishes from goodwill or garage sales under my plants! Saves money and they are easy and more fun styles than just the normal drip pans. I definitely need to get my cat in because she seems to wheeze and I will give her my inhaler but it's not easy. It's the same med apparently, but prob need a proper diagnosis. 😢

[@emortaza]

I know it's kind of basic but I would love an updated sustainable beauty products video. I am really struggle to find sustainable make up.

[@Luna04567]

Theres a lovely second hand craft store near where I live as well. Its a real game changer

[@Lizzy43645]

I totally want more of this!!!!

[@kathrynsuttle9261]

Would love a re-visit on PVA if you are changing your mind on it!

[@Amyjwashere]

goo gone is the absolute gold standard! :) (coming from a teacher lol)

[@Yordieq]

Yaaay. I love these types of videos! But honestly I'll watch anything you post ❤

[@rfcillustration]

I check if there is a 'buy nothing' group around me because of you and found one! Thx! :)

[@tracygall4883]

If you put newspaper or scrap paper in the bottom of the compost bin the won't freeze to the plastic :)

[@Ella-wq9tq]

love this type of video as well as your other formats ! :))

[@sarahford7357]

I have been wanting to get new pans. The ones I got I received as a gift and are the cheap starter set. The handles aren’t sturdy anymore, and I’ve tried tightening them. So I’m gonna save up for the nice quality ones from Green Pan.

[@Takeasec]

I feed my cat insect based kibble by Catit , there’s also a brand called Jiminy which is insect based wet and dry food for Dogs!!!

[@katiewilson794]

Honestly i would love a mending session live stream where we can all mend together!

[@miacarvalho8732]

I just bought a composter! But with worms. Waiting for it to arrive and exited to start

[@juliehav]

Definitely want part 2 ❤

[@gardeningtheearth]

Love ACR!!! ❤❤❤

[@nikkiwc]

I really enjoyed this vlog! Keep them coming! Also, I too am on the PVA-free detergent search. If you find something, please let us know!

[@reganstandlick7520]

yes was so excited to have another video

[@carinagilliland5068]

You could also use vinegar and baking soda heat it up in the pan it will almost clean itself.

[@vibingvegan]

A part two would be awesome !

[@glacyneyla-lifestyle]

Put kitchen paper towels into your compost bin first and enjoy a clean bin 😊

[@JaclynFitzkee]

You got the inhaler! Poor tippy

[@dionis9110]

Love these type of videos

[@vdruskas]

We just rinse out compost into junky blender and after dump the liquid into an area in yard and toss leaves and dirt onto it.
