I am a recycling nut. Every year for the holidays it never ceases to cross my mind all the wrapping paper, ribbons and bows that get put out with the garbage. There is actually an alternative to paper. I found a website that sells gift bags that can be continually re-gifted. […]

The holiday season reminds my of batteries for some reason. Maybe it’s because one year as a gift for my children, I received a package of 25 double A batteries. The worst part is, I refuse to throw batteries away, so I have literally moved with a bag of batteries about three times […]

I am very sensitive to facial cleansers and moisturizers and I used to constantly buy different products, never seeming to find the one that was just right.
