I can’t say I’m usually that big on birthdays. My own that is. I mean I am always happy to celebrate (see photo of me and my cousins from my Grandma’s 95th a few weeks ago!) and I am always, always very grateful to be alive, healthy and savoring another year, but I’ve never [...]

World Women’s Forum, Korea
November 18, 2008 – 7:43 am
Having traveled a great deal as a youngin’, I consider myself quite comfortable in regions remote, non-English speaking, under travel advisory and the like. Bring it on, I always thought.

If you’ve ever needed a little help out at Whole Paycheck, ergh, I mean Whole Foods, make sure you register at Ecobunga this month. This cool, new directory keeps it real, addressing the fact that cost is the reason most people cite as the top reason they’re reluctant to “go green.” With categories such [...]

Soccer Woes

Well I was trying to be a good EcoMom. I called a mother of one of Corbin’s friends. “Do you have any cleats that Henry has outgrown?” Now Megan is a pretty hip, together EcoMom herself so she quickly got it. “Yes! I think I have one from two years ago that would fit [...]
