Free Coffee Grounds!

Score!  What do you do with coffee grounds, you ask?  Well, every gardener knows that coffee grounds are also known as "black gold."  Throw them in your garden, your compost bin, or around your favorite plants.  They make the soil nice and rich.  So, imagine my pure delight when I discovered tonight that Starbucks offers FREE COFFEE GROUNDS in ~gallon bags as you leave their store.  My compost bin will LOVE it.  Tonight, I celebrate a new find and a new year!

Happy New Year!

Free Christmas Music!

Although I generally avoid shopping at Target (as I don't believe they should be throwing money in the political arena), I'm happy to pass on FREE Christmas music downloads on their website.  Featured artists include Ceci Bastida, The Pinker Tones, Little Isidore, Coconut Records, Best Coast Wavves (yes, I spelled that correctly), Little Jackie, Jenny O. (not the turkey), Bishop Allen, Crystal Antlers, Natalie Hemby, Darker My Love, Blackalicious, and one of my all-time favorites - GUSTER (gushing for Guster).

A big thank you to WXRT in Chicago for the heads-up on this rocking deal.

Groove on, folks!
