Why this blog?

For me, being vegan is a continual journey. Every day I find out something new about the things I use in my ordinary daily life. I am interested in finding new ways to enhance the vegan-friendliness of my life through the products I use, eat, wear or otherwise consume. Locating vegan goods can be confusing, and at times, even expensive. Ultimately, I would like everything I use to be as vegan as possible, from dish soap to makeup, to the shoes I wear, to my hair care products, and everything in between. I would also like to share with you information about what I try and what I discover along the way, in the hopes that it may be useful to you. I am also open to suggestions if you have anything you recommend, or if there is something you have always wondered about and would like me to check out. Email me at veganinbellingham@gmail.com. And thanks for reading!

D.I.Y. Vegan-Friendly Glass Cleaner

This may be the easiest cleaning tip I will ever share with you: pour club soda into a spray bottle (if you can re-use an old bottle that used to contain something else, that is even more environmentally-friendly than buying one), and then just use the spray as glass cleaner. Seriously. It's that simple. I just cleaned my bathroom mirrors and my bedroom window and it was EASY. Bye bye toothpaste splashes, hairspray marks, and grimy smudges--my mirrors and window are now sparkling clean. And talk about a streak-free shine!
