If you take this approach, you can also embed erb in your yaml, and
get a nice little object with your config at hand:
require 'ostruct'
raw_config = File.read("#{RAILS_ROOT}/config/config.yml")
erb_config = ERB.new(raw_config).result
config = YAML.load(erb_config)[RAILS_ENV]
HomestarsConfig = OpenStruct.new(config)
so if you had a config setting of mail_server,
you could access it HomestarsConfig.mail_server
