While my husband does a majority of the cooking, I have a lot of influence with regards to the ingredients he uses.

One of the things I really appreciated about moving into our home last year was the opportunity to decorate my son's room.

More and more of us are recognizing the reality that are precious natural resources are finite. My husband and I work very hard to recycle, reuse, and reduce our carbon footprint. One of the most difficult things I've had to do is give up bottled water. And I know (in my head) that when it comes to safety there is no "guarantee" that bottled water is cleaner, sa... Read More »
