Sass Mixins for DRY Themes

Keeping themes as DRY ("Don't Repeat Yourself") as possible makes themes easier to update, tweak and maintain. When a client requests a change to an element that's used throughout their site, a dry theme gives you the ability to change one piece of code and be done. The basic mixins I use in all of my themes include mixins for fonts, colors, form inputs and grid styles. Once those are in place, I also create a mixin for any design elements used throughout the site—for example, a special treatment for titles.
