Living in the desert means we have very hot and dry Summer days, sometimes reaching over 100 degrees for many weeks at a time. I have some tried and true ways to save energy and money during the Summer months. Try them and see how much they make a difference in your home.
A couple of years ago I was fortunate to participate in a drive to help gather items and put together a Refugee Basket. I think we were able to assemble at least a dozen baskets to take to new families in the area. It was such a great experience to help those in need and give them a fresh start in their new home. I’ve included a list of the items we included in our basket. We were fortunate to include items in the essentials and extras categories which was an extra special blessing.
