WINTER FOOD FOR THE BIRDS

WINTER FOOD FOR THE BIRDS

Homemade food for the birds in old cups to help them through the winter.

We mixed leftover animal cooking fat with a mix of seeds but I guess you can also use coconut oil as it’ll also stay solid.

First the fat has to be softened to mix in the seeds. Now fill old cups with the seed and fat mix. After you fill the cups, you need to place the cups in cold so the fat becomes solid before hanging them up.

I’m posing for you guys 🙂 a borrowed dress for our Venice and Croatia trip.

Thanks to my lovely and stylish sister in law for lending several summer outfits to me.

It’s a great way to save money, time and the environment if you borrow outfits instead of buying new ones. It sure did for me.

Borrow from friends and family for special occasions instead at buying new. It’s a great way to save money and reduce waste.
