We've lived in our current home for one year and seven months. I just took the recycling bins out for the first time. (We usually let everything pile up in the garage until we stuff the car full and take it all to the recycling center.)

On our last trip to the grocery store, I had Cardo fill two very large bags of baking soda from the bulk section. "You need more?" he asked me skeptically. Yes, yes I do. It has myriad uses around our home. (More on that at some point.) When we got to the register, the cashier asked about the first bag, "This is baking soda, right?" When she got to the second bag, she asked, somewhat incredulously, "Another bag?" Yes, I like my baking soda.
