Quick Recap

Well I've gotten a few responses so it looks like at least a few of you are up for the challenge. Let me reiterate the rules and explain a bit further.

First, it is Mateo's 30th birthday and he has requested that I not spend any money. I can't let this milestone pass by so I spent some time coming up with a clever way to create a big, free celebration.

Then, I looked for a word to encapsulate this idea and "ecoficient" is what I came up with. It turns out I was not the first kid on the block to think of that word. No hard feelings though. I shall proceed.

So, this is where you all enter the picture. To make it BIG I would like to have people who care about him participate. A few of you knew about the idea ahead of time because I shared it to see how people would react. So far so good.

Finally, this blog was created as a tool to learn and plan the celebration. Additionally, he does not know that I am planning this so please remember to keep it quiet.

Thus far I have received a few e-mails giving me ideas of what we could do. People have talked about parks, pot-lucks and Parcheesi and I'm loving the excitement I'm reading. Make sure you check out people's comments at the end of each blog. Just click on comments. You can add your own as well. If you have a G-Mail account all you have to do is login with that. If not then you will need to register. Either way stay tuned for your lessons on ecoficiency.

*Please note, I can only post when Mateo is not home or is asleep so most of my posts will come on the weekends. There may be two or three at a time just scroll down. The more comments people make on the blog the more communication we can keep so I'm really encouraging everyone to post comments. You can get dialog going with each other, on ideas, using the comments space.
