No Driving Anywhere Day

On Sundays, I have a no driving anywhere policy. I make a conscious choice to only partake in activities that I can walk to. Activities usually include gardening, walking to the park, and cooking.

The no driving day is relaxing, partly because my activity choices are limited. I stay close to home and don't shop. Maybe I should include more no driving days in my week. I don't wash my hair,I wear comfortable clothes that I can get grubby. Eat creatively from what is in my fridge.

Today we planted a tomato plant, Eva's pumpkin plant and a raised bed with carrots and beets.

Finally found one.

This tomato plant will provide sungold cherry tomatoes through the fall and sometimes through the winter.

Using our front yard to plant food. All in all a very wholesome family activity that provides food for our table.

What are your No Driving Days like?

    1. We are fortunate that our house is located within easy walking distance to the local zoo, a supermarket, a pharmacy, a park and playground. Wish we could sit and down and eat the wonderful bounty with you and Dad. Love u.
