Olney Farmers and Artists Market

The OFAM crew is always a good time, and the music is always on point. The food is excellent and this year they have added a lot of clothing vendors who really have very nice items for sale. Check it out!!


Holy Smokes! This looks like fun!

Now here is a super family event being held at Clark's Elioak Farm in Howard County. Its free, but whatever you can donate whatever you wish at the door. Its a fundraiser for the Howard County Food Bank so don't be a chump and not donate. Give what you can. They will be serving locally sourced produce and showing agricultural films.

Did you know that white vinegar (under $3 a Gallon) is awesome?

If you use white vinegar and baking soda in your rinse cycle as opposed to fabric softener you will come up with cleaner and softener clothes every time. I have a front loader and it also keep it from stinking. I put vinegar in the bleach and fabric softener loading area and baking soda in the pre rinse area. Its incredibly cheap and keeps all that extra detergent out of the ecosystem. White vinegar usually runs me about $2.67 a Gallon and baking soda is about $.47 a box. How much is that Downy again??
