I’m A Loser, Baby (and other links)

Or at least I’m hanging out with the Loser Moms today. They graciously allowed me to join them for a guest post about my own healthier lifestyle goals. Go check out my guest post, and see how my Hot by BlogHer journey is going!

Also, stop by my reviews blog today for your chance to win a Huggies Summer Essentials Kit!

Finally, we decided that one way to save money was to grow some of our own vegetables. Over at Being Savvy Columbus, I’m discussing the benefits of growing vegetables in your own backyard. (And while some local greenhouses are mentioned, it’s worth a read for anyone who has thought about growing their own veggies, no matter where you live.) I can’t believe how easy it is. See how well my peppers and loose leaf lettuce are doing?

  1. I did the whole “my own veggies” too. Got peppers, cherry tomatoes for the youngest and then my tomatoes. Guess Mother Nature knows I hate to wait because she’s teasing the hell outta me waiting for these things to grow.

  2. Congrats on your new blog gig AND the healthier lifestyle!

    We’re lucky cuz hubs built a huge garden in the back and we eat out of that for most of the summer. Leaf lettuce is up now – but my fave? Home grown broccoli. YUM.

  3. That’s great! I planted a whole herb garden…. stupid birds love my sweet basil! Hope that they grow for you!!

    We are doing the same thing. I couldn’t see the value in spending tons of money planting annuals just to look pretty, so I planted organic spinich instead. We also added rhubarb and zucchini to our herb garden.

    Don’t forget to link to the gas giveaway on your blog – good luck!!

  6. We’ve got a small vegetable garden. My peppers, however, are starting to look a little weird. I think they might need something…

  7. My kids are growing some veggies this year too … yummm … can’t wait!

    Thanks for the tipe about the gas card giveaway 😉

  8. We are growing tomatoes, pumpkins, watermelons and green beans. It’s a start and a great way to show my 8 year old how things grow…

  10. I purchased the AeroGarden herb grower for under $200 dollars at Bed Bath and Beyond. I waited for it to go on sale and used their 20% coupon and no shipping…

    Everything helps…

  11. Your post at Loser Moms was great!

    I haven’t budged much on the baby weight for a few weeks now, but got some more motivation this weekend while teaching a dance class. I can feel the extra pounds in my knees!
