i’m so in love with spring – it’s delightful how annually it continues to surprise me with it’s wonderfulness.  it’s completely faded from memory how last year, we went through the same ritual of shedding the sweaters, opening the windows – hmmm, spring amnesia, I like you.  we’ve loved the evening walks the recent weather...

great (green) wedding website! – guest blogger: laura

even weddings are going green!  here’s a great website we’ve found for the environmentally-conscious bride: portovert.com: The Gateway To Greener Weddings.  they’ve got tons of inspiring articles, pictures, even a guide that lets you search by location and service/product.  being motivated (all too often) by my stomach, i was drawn to the pages on food...

my methods – guest blogger: laura

rather than throw out all my current household cleaners, i’m replacing them as they run out with more environmentally-friendly ones (like method )- nine times out of ten, i find something i love from method (omop floor cleaner, candles, laundry detergent).  i like their colors, scents, and simple packaging.  i would be remiss if i...
