One idea for "one in, one out": I have a finite number of clothes hangers. If all my hangers are full, then I have to get rid of something if I want something else. It's an easy way to control my clothing inventory.
Decision fatigue is a reality. That’s why cooking more than one meal at a time is always a boon. An efficiency often overlooked. Leftovers are time-savers and often even better than “firsts”. Thanks for another great video. 👍👍 -V
Love your channel! I especially loved your Micro Adventure episode! Maybe after you've sold your car, you could share more of these simple rewarding adventures. Your overall content is excellent, and I love the practical how-to tips as we all reflect and learn along this minimalist journey.
Great content and video! My only comment about an air fryer is that we use ours a lot. In the sunroom when it’s too hot to cook inside or turn on the oven and when we are running short on time and didn’t plan dinner we will cook bean burgers in five minutes. Also makes the best cauliflower “wings” without frying. That said it was also a gift from my daughter in support of our change to healthy/vegan eating and we sure did appreciate her thoughtfulness!
Writing down what I think I want to buy gives me some relief, like I am acknowledging my own wants/needs. I usually decide later not to buy what is on the list because I really don't want it, I just temporarily got hooked into some passing thought which is gone now.😌 Thanks for the video!
Absolutely love you two 🤗. Thank you for the latest content. One of my pet peeves is the 'one use item'. Gone! Love the idea of creating a wishlist. Will start today. Much love from Australia 💖
Throw the pajamas?! 😆 I need to know more - that sounds fun! Good video today. As for one-use items, you don't need just an air fryer. I had one of those and barely used it. However when my toaster AND the air fryer both quit working, I got a combo unit that will bake, toast, broil, and air fry. Now that is a worthwhile investment. I use it almost everyday and it saves heating up the big oven (and therefore my apartment) for making just one or two servings.
If you get an air fryer, do not get the type that looks like a mini oven, they are a huge amount of work to clean. Get the one that has a pull-ut little drawer. But I am lazy so I think I would just put some oil in a pan, cover, shake it around a bit every few minutes. I think I am still waiting for your review of Goodbye Things by Fumio Sasaki.
These are exactly the types of tips I was looking for!! Very practical and helpful. You two are both so charming as well, so happy the algorithm led me here ❤
I wanted a juicer for years. I finally got one and only used it a few times. It was such a pain to clean I didn’t want to use it. I donated it. I do love my ninja blender though. I use it everyday.
You two are a riot! I'd be interested to find out about your pajamas! I wanted to buy organic cotton pajamas but I didn't care for the price tag. So instead, I use my organic clothing that's still in really good shape but I don't care to wear anymore. What I like best is taking early morning walks with Bear in my PJs! Three of the springs on my mini tramp broke so I'm looking for a new one. I love my air fryer! But if you have a stove in I can see where you might not want to get one. I had a full size stove when I bought my house but had it removed for more counter space and built a space under the counter for the air fryer. I use it almost every a day. It uses 50% less energy than a regular stove and that's before factoring in the fact it cooks food 25% faster. I don't have the basket type so don't have the stats on those. I just finished making some garlic toast with nutritional yeast to munch on while watching your video. Nom. Nom.
Hi there! You can buy individual springs for your mini trampoline. I had a full size one for 20 years and simply replaced the springs and mat when needed. It's cheaper and less wasteful than throwing out a whole trampoline! 😎👍
😂 intro cracked me up. What, I don't need to go buy five beige $100 teeshirts? Love to hear more Afrikaans and local sayings/culture. Nearly called one of my kids Jonti after the cricketer (just like the sound of the name). Wishlists are such a good idea. I hardly ever end up buying the things I put on mine!
Hello there! Wow, the 10/10/10 rule made me to ponder more about my goals in life. I’m in my late 20s and doing my best to have a stable job so that I can buy house. But I am not a person of being tied up to a thing as well. Been traveling and living in different cities my whole life. … But still don’t have any idea to what I spend the money I save from hard work?!? … Any ideas? Thanks for being here ❤
Have a small notebook by your front door. For a month, as you walk in, write down what you have spent that day. If you shop online 8:55 in the evening, add those items to the list. After a month, go through with coloured highlighters and highlight things in each category. So I have necessary direct debits; treats; unplanned expenses and treats; DIY ( includes garden); health related; etc. Then add up each category. You will soon see where your money is going and can adjust your behaviour accordingly. For example, I found that I had not budgeted for stamps and cards for birthdays- so I started a 'sinking fund' envelope for them. Btw you can start on whatever date of the month! 9th until 9th is fine!!!
