And so it begins . . .

I noticed my pile of papers I was keeping simply because I didn't want to throw them out without shredding them was building and building. I decided it was about time to do something useful with them. This is how it began. I started hand shredding the paper into a tub in my living room. That's when Gizmo realized she could be quite a big help.

The first thing I decided to try making was homemade kitty litter. This recipe is one that I found and fell for. Simple is how I like most things. Also anything that helps with keeping my three cats happy works for me.

The second thing to do on my list is to work with my daughter on making homemade paper. I bought her a kit for Christmas so to better explain and work with her on recycling. We haven't dove full force into it yet, but there are many-a projects on our list to do. Bugsy is always willing to help as well.
