    I am always on a quest to find the best reusable containers for just about everything.  One thing I refuse to do is buy bottled water.  It’s wasteful and unnecessary and I just can’t bring myself to spend money on a case of plastic bottles. It pains me.  So I rely primarily on my reusable water bottles [...]

      Just to change the pace for a minute I wanted to quick tell you about this cute little children’s book.  It’s written by one of my favorite green bloggers, Sommer Poquette who’s famous for her blog Green and Clean Mom!  She decided to write a children’s book to illustrate what it is we mom bloggers [...]

        A long time ago, a reader emailed me asking about bean bag chairs and what they are filled with.  At the time I didn’t have a good answer for her.  It seemed that most were filled with either polystyrene or flame retardant treated foam bits** See NOTE below **.  And that was just the inside.

          I’ve written about Wean Green before, because I love food storage options that don’t rely solely on plastic. So when The Glass Baby Bottle sent me a sample of Wean Green’s new Sandwich Cubes I was anxious to try them out.  Wean Green is most well known for their cute little glass Cubes which are [...]

            I know, you’re thinking “Back to school already? It’s still JULY.” But, some of you can relate to me because my son starts Kindergarten on August 8th. Which is so bizarre to me having grown up in New York where school was a distant thought until Labor Day.  Anyway, so since many kids will be [...]

              So as you can probably guess, the cheat sheet for bug repellents got back burnered this summer.  Seriously, I don’t know how anyone gets anything done in the summer time.  I feel like I am constantly shuttling kids from one place to another and when I’m not, I’m trying to keep them busy with projects [...]

                I’ve used and have a couple organic cotton towels for the kids, and they’re nice. But I had no idea just how luxurious organic towels could be! One of my sponsors, Baby UR Precious is a family owned and operated business which specializes in organic cotton velour products like hooded towels, wash cloths and blankets. [...]

                  It’s rainy season! I’ve covered safer rain gear before and since it is actually raining today, I thought it was appropriate to write about it! Puddlegear is owned and run by a husband and wife team who really stand behind the product.  All their rain gear is totally PVC and Phthalate Free and instead coated [...]

                    Remember when we were kids, and your mom would take out that big canister of Kool-Aid? I remember my mother would buy the individual packets, so that she could control how much sugar she put in.  I always thought my mom was lame because she would never make it as sweet as all of my [...]

                      Easter is coming!  That means egg hunts, chocolate bunnies and egg coloring.  One thing I’ve been anxious to try this year with my kids is exploring more natural ways of coloring eggs.  I am just not comfortable using Red 40 and Blue Lake tablets that inevitably leak on to the egg inside and stain our [...]
