Reusable Gift Bags

Deborah @ November 21, 2007 # 2 Comments

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. […]

Green Batteries

Deborah @ November 21, 2007 # 2 Comments

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 […]

Consciously Shopping for Diamonds

Deborah @ November 13, 2007 # One Comment

About a year ago, I read a great article out of Body + Soul magazine regarding buying diamond jewelry. I don’t wear jewelry and own very little, so this isn’t something I had given a lot of thought to, but I’m usually the exception to the rule. I want to share this article […]

Eco-Friendly and Natural Children’s Toys

Deborah @ November 10, 2007 # One Comment

I truly can not stand modern day toys for children. I personally think they are junk. The packaging itself is destructive. They are plastic crap, that after the initial five minute novelty of flashing lights and noise wears off, children seem to be bored with them and rarely play with them again. […]

Good Vibrations and The Law of Attraction

Deborah @ November 7, 2007 # One Comment

There is an unwritten law of the Universe that states whatever you ask for it is given. There are a plethora of books and teachings that tout this philosophy, The Secret, is probably the most popular and well known at this moment in time. There are slogans such as, “Thoughts become things”, that […]

This past September my Mom and I went to the New Jersey shore to stay with one of her friends for a couple days. All together there were four adults and three children so our meals were served with disposable plates and bowls. They were by far the nicest disposable bowls I had […]

“Green” Toothbrushes

Deborah @ November 2, 2007 # 3 Comments

About two years ago, I got really disgusted with myself for throwing my children’s toothbrushes out every three months or so. Combined with mine, it was four at a time. I was taking my dog Pepper to get acupuncture for his arthritis, at the time, and every Saturday after his vet appointment, I […]

Children’s Clothing

Deborah @ November 2, 2007 # One Comment

I thought that searching for organic children’s clothes would have been easy. I assumed it was a fairly large, viable market. I had a terrible time trying to find organic clothes for kids! There is a ton of stuff for babies and adults, but past four years there really isn’t much out […]
