Hey!

Hey!

Welcome to Eat Yourself Green 🌿
Hi, my name is Larissa and
I'm all about living consciously and making a positive impact while I'm at it.
Here you can find helpful tips, recipes and resources to live sustainably too.

Make yourself at home,

‘Your house will be messier but your heart will ‘Your house will be messier but your heart will be fuller’ or something like that...

Hard to say this to a type A person 😅 but I’m slowly learning to let go of perfection and order and embracing the things we can’t control to be able to enjoy the moment 💕

Cloth nappies are not just for eco-conscious famil Cloth nappies are not just for eco-conscious families...

They are for money saving parents, carers who want to reduce their plastic consumption and for those who want to reduce the risk of allergies and skin problems with their little ones. 

You don’t have to do it all or cloth full-time. 

They don’t have to be brand new or fancy ones. 

The secret to cloth nappies is to make it work for you. 

Cloth nappies can be accessible and can be for everyone!

The fleeting moments of motherhood... You are tir The fleeting moments of motherhood...

You are tired but you never want them to grow up of whichever phase they are 💕

Just soaking up those snuggles and every single part of you 🥰

Did you know that on average you can go through ov Did you know that on average you can go through over 15,000 wipes in the first year? 🤯

That’s A LOT! Even worst though is the fact that most wipes don’t decompose or are home compostable for that matter, meaning they go straight to landfill (also, please don’t flush your wipes down the toilet!!!) 😭

The solution? Reusable wipes! I’ve been using cheekywipesaustralia since Luna was born and it’s 100% one of the best investments I’ve made so far and they work perfectly with our cloth nappies since we already have a set routine to keep it all clean and working for us. 

And you know how many we’ve had to buy to set up both our stations (upstairs and downstairs)? 
Fifty. That’s it. 50 reusable wipes substitute the 15,000 we would have to use otherwise. 

It’s an investment for ourselves and the environment. It’s a win win!

Also, cheekywipesaustralia were generous to offer you a discount code if you want to get started on your reusable journey. Use EATYOURSELFGREEN10 for 10% discount 💚

Motherhood is a tough gig. It’s hard to balance Motherhood is a tough gig. It’s hard to balance all the things that need doing and be able to still find yourself in the midst of all the feeding, changing and soothing that happens in between. ⁠
⁠
It’s hard to keep up the housework and being tired of holding that baby in your arms but also missing them while they are asleep. ⁠
⁠
It’s never finding a moment to yourself and also thinking that time is going too fast and that baby is growing too quickly. ⁠
⁠
It’s dealing with all the uncertainty and insecurity but knowing you are the only person that can care for your baby. ⁠
⁠
Trying to remember that one day I’ll be able to finish that book or sleep a little longer but for now, I’ll just enjoy all the little moments we get to spend together because time goes by too quickly, little one. And I don’t want to miss a thing 💕⁠

Parents can confirm: laundry is a big part of life Parents can confirm: laundry is a big part of life when there’s a kid involved. Regardless of whether you are cloth diapering or not, you’ll still have a whole lot of pooped bottoms, spewed tops and everything in between 😅⁠
⁠
So I wanted to share a few of my laundry essentials 🧺⁠
⁠
thedirtcompany is my new favourite laundry liquid. Not only it is gentle on clothes and on baby’s skin but it’s also tough on stains. And it keeps our nappies bright white ✨ Plus it’s refillable which means that no water is created while doing the washing. Highly recommended. ⁠
⁠
On the topic of stains, I’ve been using biomestores oxygen bleach for persistent stains and and whites that need an extra help. Works just like Vanish 👌🏼⁠
⁠
best.pegs is also my go to for pegs. Not that pegs are something to brag about but these are literally the best. pegs. ever. Big and made with marine grade stainless steel they won’t stain your clothes and will never break unlike their plastic counterparts. ⁠
⁠
And just like that, we try to keep our laundry situation as simple as possible while also making it effective and good for our family. ⁠
⁠
What do you use and recommend for your family?⁠

⁠
Since I got pregnant I noticed that my following changed and a lot of people unfollowed and new people came in. So I just wanted to say hello to all of you who just arrived and a big thank you to those that stayed. ⁠
⁠
This is not just a recipe blog anymore but I’ll still post the odd delicious dessert or quick meal for you. In the meanwhile? I’ll keep sharing the sustainability tips and new mom hacks as I go 😅⁠
⁠
For this delicious pretzel recipe go to google and type ‘easy pretzel recipe’ 🤪⁠

Happy 2021! I hope you have survived 2020 somewhat Happy 2021! I hope you have survived 2020 somewhat unscathed but I wish you are able to thrive in this new year.⁠
⁠
Things haven't magically changed overnight, but I hope we can all agree that things ~need~ to change, first and foremost, within ourselves.⁠
⁠
I hope you were able to rest or celebrate your own way and I wish for all of us, renewed hope for a year with more consciousness, health and action in our lives.⁠

Happy New Year! 🥂⁠

The festive season can be quite overwhelming. Lots The festive season can be quite overwhelming. Lots of food, lots of people, family visits...it all can be triggering. 

This year was definitely a weird one (although full of goodness for us) and we all should be allowed to give ourselves some grace and enjoy this time however you feel most comfortable. 

To me this year was all about making delicious food that we could all enjoy and indulge a little. 
I even managed to whip up a quick Petit Gateau [recipe in the blog] just because. Also, it’s the perfect recipe if you have little ones (not to give ~them~ but because it’s so quick to make and enjoy while they are having a nap 😉)

So here’s to hoping you are all enjoying this season to treat yourself, take it easy and rest up!

Happy week-between-holidays peeps! 🤪
