Quick Tip: How to Fix a Slow Water Filter

Quick Tip: How to Fix a Slow Water Filter

Have you ever bought a water filter that starts out great, but after a few uses becomes painfully slow? We have used – and loved – a PUR pitcher for years, but the last package of filters I bought was a real dud.

Minimalism Journey: The Lesson I Learned from Lip Balm

Minimalism Journey: The Lesson I Learned from Lip Balm

What’s on My Amazon Wishlist: Spring Edition

What’s on My Amazon Wishlist: Spring Edition

I have simplified my life significantly and my spending habits have certainly become more deliberate over the course of the last year. But minimalist or not, I still enjoy window shopping (whether the windows are at my local Nordstrom Rack or a window on my web browser). To me, it makes sense to keep an Amazon wishlist because I can watch prices and keep track of gift ideas.

20 Ways to Spend Your FSA Dollars Before Time Runs Out

20 Ways to Spend Your FSA Dollars Before Time Runs Out

So you overestimated your medical expenses for the year and now you have FSA dollars to burn.  Nearly 10 years ago I had a sizable FSA surplus and bought so much cortisone ointment that we are still making our way through it. I’m sure it expired ages ago. The good news? You didn’t need as much medical care as you expected. That’s priceless in my book. But since
