New Signet Solar -

New on the horizon in New Mexico - Gov. Bill Richardson just put together an agreement for Signet Solar to build a production plant in Belen, New Mexico.

Another fantastic opportunity for New Mexico in the field of Solar and Green projects.

This is projected to bring in 200 high paying jobs to the area.

Solar homes and green living are a great industry for New Mexico, with all of this great sunshine and closeness to nature, it's just a natural for green home living.

Money saving tips living in Green

Living in Green doesn't just mean materials, pipes and heaters. It also means just plain saving MONEY.

Some of my money saving tips that I try every day I'll share on this blog and I invite you to post yours.

I sell real estate, but I also love saving money wherever I can and making my Albuquerque home efficient and luxurious.

One thing I do is save leftovers for cooking later. This doesn't just mean little bits here and there. Did you know that you can freeze leftover salad and then use it in stews and pot roasts for a base? Just start your roast and add all of your leftover salad (including dressing) and cook away. Wonderful flavor and nutrients, too.

Same goes for leftover pieces of beef, chicken, fish - whatever - just combine in a container as used (and cooled) add to soups and stews.

You would be amazed at how quickly this adds up to a whole meal. Especially for these cold winter nights!
