Seventh Generation recently hosted a evening with Dr. Greene (love him) and the Environmental Working Group (love, love, love them) in [...]

I currently have a General Motors vehicle and have noticed on all the major “green” websites or high traffic sites with ad agencies, there are GM ads for their Hybrid SUV.  I never see Ford anywhere and this made me wonder.

My daughter is 21 months and she’s climbing out her crib. Why? Why can’t she just stay in her crib until she is three like her brother? He never tried to climb out. He was happy in his crib. Not my little girl. She wakes up and out she climbs. All times of the night, [...]

I drink organic shade grown coffee but I put sweet and low in it. Gasp. I know, it makes no sense and I’ve tried to stop. I can’t. Over at 5 Minutes for Going Green I wrote a post about my natural weight loss struggle and the zero calorie mentality that basically has me hooked [...]

Your eyes, your shoes, the new roof on your house, it’s a very versatile color because of the variety of shades. Thirty-three to be exact. I’m a huge fan of the color myself. I’m also a fan of Sloan Barnett. April 2007 Sloan and her husband, Roger Barnett were on the Oprah show. I’ve told [...]
