Ditch the Tampons and Switch to a DivaCup (Sexy? Right!)

Last Updated on December 4, 2017 by Crunchy Betty

Ditch the Tampons and Switch to a DivaCup (Sexy? Right!)

It all started two years ago when my sister said, "You should really try the DivaCup," and I said, "Huh. Weird." And every month, I'd think about it, but then I'd look at the price of a DivaCup ($30) compared to a the price of a box of tampons ($7), and I'd say, "Next month. I'll get one next month when we have more money."Clearly, I am not very good at understanding substantial long-term savings, because you don't throw the DivaCup away. Not for years.And then the conversation happened ... Continue Reading

How to Keep a Natural Litter Box and Other Cat-Related Nonsense 6

Did you know that you can train a cat to use a toilet? It's a real thing, and real cats who have brains can do this; they don't even need opposable thumbs or current issues of National Geographic. They are just fine with back issues.I'm thinking about doing this with my cat, but given our recent interactions, it will just give him one more reason to sit on my head. Here are his other reasons: he's hungry, or I'm asleep, or it's less than 86.5 degrees outside, or I'm breathing.But let's ... Continue Reading

And Then the Fires Happen 1

I have to admit, I'm in a bit of a quandary.Two days ago, I was all excited for the Three Days of Silence.

12 Things You Should Know About (and Do With) Your Eggs 7

A long time ago, in a land far, far away I had a friend who hated chickens. She loathed them. Every time we'd go out to eat, she'd say to the waitress, "Don't bring me anything with chicken. Chickens are disgusting, vile animals."And then she'd tell a story about her uncle, who was a CAFO (concentrated animal feeding operation - so, a factory farm) chicken "farmer," and how when he was upset with her, he'd send her into the chicken "camps" and make her touch them. They would peck at her and ... Continue Reading
