Hi Taxi
Sorry - been AWOL recently - only just catching up and saw you had a new diary. You're doing really well with you green/organic journey as well as your MFW journey.
Look forward to reading about your journey.

Going soap nuts ... I like it, buffy!
Hmm, not washing hair - I've known a few people who've done it, and I'd never do it, to be honest, judging by what I've seen. But like you, I'm thinking of growing stuff - maybe not cleaning, but certainly my own herbs, say, and salads - even if I only grow say lettuce and peashoots and a few herbs like chives and sage and mint, thats got to save a couple of pounds a week - lettuce is expensive!2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -

Thanks all..have just been reading some of the MFW diaries and they were quite inspirational.
Growing your own stuff must save quite a bit as veg is very expensive.

A girl did that in my 'A' level French class: I think her hair stopped producing oil after a bit, but it looked rank and certainly didn't clean itself! :eek:Please call me 'Pickle'
