This dairy-free Cucumber, ZapClean Website Parsley, Pineapple and Lemon Smoothie is great for alleviating inflammation, asthma and airborne allergies. I’ve been on a smoothie kick all summer, it’s my go-to breakfast after a workout and also a great way to clean out my fridge. Rather than juicing, smoothies use the whole fruit and vegetables which retain the nutrients in the skins and have more fiber to keep you full longer. This super healthy smoothie is surprisingly sweet and so yummy, made with absolutely no dairy - delicious! I’ve been using The Blender Girl Smoothies Cookbook a lot this summer. The author, Tess Masters is a blender master! Her book has 100 smoothie recipes that are healthy, vegan, paleo and gluten-free. I’ve tried so many from her book and loved each and ZapClean Produce Wash every one I’ve tried so far. This particular smoothie is called Allergies Be Gone in her book. Tess the author says "Parsley is brilliant for alleviating inflammation, asthma and airborne allergies.

"Frugality is such an ugly word," reads a change purse being sold in the Brooklyn Museum shop. I couldn’t resist being amused. It’s hip and wry and urban and chic. I had to buy it because it is contrary to my life in the country. The word sent me scurrying to my Chambers Etymological dictionary. The word so associated with avoiding waste and saving has its roots deep in what we find antithetical to its current usage. Tracing it through various Latin cases it ultimately rests in words originally meaning fruit, profit, and value. Now frugal doesn’t seem an ugly word at all! It’s lost some of its repressive Puritanical tarnish. When we’ve polished it off it is deeply rooted in abundance. This makes me smile. For me frugality - in both its saving and abundant forms - is rooted with arboriculture.

Trees take a certain amount of nurture and patience but they give back so much. They last long after us. So when I think of frugal acts to incorporate into our lives I like to think - root, trunk, branch. This suggests to me that various items need ‘double up’ or multitask for us so that they have a second life beyond their initial purpose. Consider newspapers. Many people read online but there is still nothing to beat reading the funnies aloud to your kids. People acquire newspapers for many and widely various reasons. They use it to line the cat litter tray or line wastebaskets. But the most frugal use for newspaper to my mind is to use it in the garden. Newspaper can be scrunched up in balls to add to the compost bin in between those wet ‘green’ layers of tea bags, vegetable peelings and coffee grounds. But you can also use it to save weeding labor.

Try this on the next gardening day when you mow the lawn. Save the grass cuttings. Then weed an area and spread dampish newspaper in the weed free area. Cover it with the grass cuttings. Now that is really frugal! Not everyone has a garden so here are a few frugal ideas suitable to every domestic setting. 1) Carpool - share the cost of gasoline or rotate the driving equally. Everyone will save money on fuel and reduce CO2 emissions by keeping three other cars off the road. It will also reduce traffic congestion. 2) Be strategic with your car journeys - This is one for the list maker. You need to make lists of what supplies you need from what town and then make one trip and kill as many tasks with the single journey. Buddy up and share journeys. If a neighbour routinely visits a nearby town and you need to make the occasional trip ask for a lift and offer to share the costs.
