What do you do for your wedding anniversary during a quarantine? Take your kids with you on a romantic picnic!😍 They were actually a sweet addition to our date. We took them to the place Zach proposed. 9 years later and it is still a romantic spot! I’m so thankful to have a partner in life who is passionate about justice, full of wisdom, compassionate, and a loving daddy! And thanks to @yourlocalseitanist for making our picnic dinner so I didn’t have to cook! #happyanniversary #datewiththekids #shelterinplace

Stretch your supply of salad greens by adding this yummy wild edible! The flowers don’t have a strong taste, but they add a bright burst of color! Of course, make sure you are harvesting from someplace that doesn’t use herbicides or pesticides. This is from our front lawn, so we know it is safe! #wildviolets #chattanoogafoodscene #chattanoogawild #chattanoogagarden

So thankful for the @tennenvcouncil for doing tree day last weekend! Getting outside and planting trees is an emotionally satisfying activity right now. These pecan trees won’t have nuts for about 20ish years, so planting them is truly a vote for the future! It’s a great thing to do with our kids. #tennesseetreeday2020 #tennesseetreeday #plantforthefuture #chattanoogagarden #chattanoogatree

Our latest zero waste change...also to help conserve TP! Normally we buy toilet paper made of recycled paper that arrives from Amazon in a large box without the plastic packaging. But all of the recycled TP is bought out, and since I’m not willing to kill trees to wipe our bottoms, we are using these washable wipes for pee, and will save the last of our TP for #2. I made the wipes by cutting up a pair of old long underwear that was too big for me anyway. I had already cut up some of it to make cloth wipes when we had a baby in diapers, now we have a lot more! I actually prefer cloth wipes, they clean better. And washing them isn’t a big deal for pee only. Washing really isn’t a problem for poop either—the wipes just have to be rinsed before putting them in the dirty container and the dirty container needs a lid. #toiletpapercrisis #zerowastebathroom #covid_19 #chattanooga #chattanoogatennessee
