Welcome to Angie's World of Randomness

If by chance you have come across this blog, I here by welcome you. Now the decision to create a blog has been haunting me for over a year simply because I could not decided what to blog about; and considering that I am one of the most indecisive people in the world, this was a big challenge for me. I have so many interests, thoughts, and beliefs that I don't even know where to begin. My first inclination was to create yet another crafting blog, because I love doing crafts. Yet, I have no time to do such things except around the holidays because I'm poor and make my gifts. Then I though, well I'm really into the green movement and building, so let me start a blog about Green Building, a topic really know nothing about...Then since I'm going back to school and I am into event coordinating I thought that I would blog about that, but I don't actually coordinate events (yet)...I love to travel, but I'm lucky if I can leave the state for more than 48hrs to visit a friend let alone take a week vacation to go some place fun. Love the outdoors, camping, hiking, backpacking, etc, yet none of my friends in the area do, so I almost never go (I know, not a good excuse x_x). However, I do consider myself to be an environmentalist, so I'm all about renewable energy and organizations that invest in our planet's future, and believe that Americans can integrate environmentally friendly practices without sacrificing their way of life. Oh did I mention I am a Vegetarian and love to cook? IN the end I couldn't decide and this is the result.

So this blog will be about integrating and exploring environmentally friendly alternatives and choices into daily life, because if you thought Inconvenient Truth was scary (or a hoax), reality is even worse (but that is for latter postings). So I shall share crafts that I do and discover about cool up-cycling projects and DIY-ing ideas (guess what TV networks I like...) among other things; and since I have always enjoyed learning about new innovative, greener, and cost effective alternatives, there shall be postings about that too. Of course I shall write about awesome and amazing recipes that I find and try out, because I'm a bit tired of people asking me: As a Vegetarian, what do you eat? Me: Everything that is not meat. I am also pretty sure that along the way there will be other random post thrown up here, but that's a given due to my eclectic personality.

Please don't think I am some kind of fanatic tree huger, because I'm really not (OK so I've done it once... maybe twice...lets just stop counting). I don't believe in pushing my beliefs and feelings onto other people and saying that their way of life is wrong. This blog is simply about discovering and sharing more environmentally friendly options and making suggestions. So please, sit back and enjoy the ride. :)
