Rachel lives in a small apartment in Texas with her husband and two year old little girl, so she appreciates anything that will help keep her life simple.  She could read all day -- mostly about how to do and make things -- and at some time she would like to try living in another country, painting, sailing, beekeeping, and making a short film.  She also loves m&m's, perhaps a little too much, and she makes great iced coffee.

  1. That is some great information. We just don't think about how those kinds of things add up over time. I just checked on my dryer and figured out it costs just over $300.00 a year to run the dryer in our home. I am not sure we will always have the extra time to line dry but saving even half of that would be amazing.
