Adirondack Round-up!

I’m in the Adirondacks! Unfortunately it rained all the way upstate but the colors were still beautiful! I’m doing my roundup post today to give me a chance to get settled in.

Great blogs this week –
Little Green Stilettos has a very thought provoking post about that ubiquitous pink ribbon. She suggests that it might be a good idea to look behind the curtain of companies who are rallying around the pink campaign. Evidently there is an organization called Think Before You Pink that is tracking this sort of thing.

My Super-Charged Life reminds us to stop and smell the roses with Living Life to the Fullest. No matter what is going on in your life, there is always something small thing for which to be thankful. Nice to have a reminder once in a while!

Time vs. Money, which is more valuable? There is a good post at WiseBread asking us to think about this very important question. When I went freelance, otherwise known as “semi-retired” I learned that time is much more important to me.

The Good Human looked at the relative eco-friendliness of city living vs. country living. There are some interesting takes on that debate.

And finally, I need to give credit to Living Almost Large for Can We Afford It? I promise I was already planning to do the piece I published yesterday (really!) but, since LAL's came out first, that didn't look too good! I would have just killed my post but since I was trying to get ready to go, I didn't really have time to come up with something new!

Carnivals in which I participated this week –

The Missing Link appears in the 20th Carnival of All Things Eco at Focus Organic.

Pumpkin recipes appears in Make It From Scratch, the Fall Colors Edition at Stop The Ride. The carnival is adorned by beautiful fall foliage photographs. Hopefully I will be in the midst of that sort of color in upstate New York when this post appears!

My post on raising worms in my basement appeared in the Carnival of Environmental Issues at Wiggly Wigglers.
