I think that they are fine in certain circumstances. Eating out, I've been known to get a veggie burger on the menu, which is usually a Gardenburger or equivalent. And my kids love Quorn chicken nu...

We have a flickr pro account I desperately need to organize. I think the twenty-four dollars a year is completely worth it.

We don't have a TV but I can't feel all high and mighty since I'm answering this in the middle of the day by sitting and staring at what is virtually the same thing--a computer screen.

We're vegetarians and are well aware that our dairy and egg habits support the meat industry, which is why in many cases, vegetarian animal lovers catch a lot of flak from vegans. Howe...

My son has been begging for a hammock chair for his room, since we receive this catalog. http://www.novanatural.c...

I think my kids would actually really love this as a landing pad off of the side of the couch, lol. And at least I know what my old clothes are made of--goodness knows what is in some of the polyfi...

I'm currently obsessed with finding the perfect Waldorf doll--I want to budget for a nice one for my daughter but I'm starting to wonder if I should just collect a few for myself as well.

I like Aiden's room but I voted for Baby Cashew. It vibes more with my personal aesthetic.

I love all the space!

We're hosting a vegan Thanksgiving with another family for the second year in a row--it's so nice to not feel like you are imposing on other people's meal choices at the holidays!

lisobson875, have you discussed this course of action with your pediatrician? The elimination systems of babies are not fully developed. All the consistency in the world will not toilet train yo...

Jack Johnson sings this song on the Curious George motion picture soundtrack. It's a favorite here.

One of our local farmers' markets has a stand selling the fair trade Ghana baskets (Bolga baskets) like the ones available from Gaiam. This is definitely my go-to gift! In fact, my grandmother is g...

We eat McCabe's granola which is local to our town of Covington, KY (on the other side of the river from Cincinnati, OH.) They use olive oil and maple syrup as the only sweetener--and this stuff is...

We used Mythic in every room in our home and the colors are beautiful. However, it is very expensive and took quite a bit more work than we've ever invested in paint before. My living room alone, w...

IKEA's Kalas little kids ware is what we used for my son's birthday party at the library. They were the perfect size, colorful and cost much less than "green" disposables. Also, they are BPA-free. ...

For some reason, I'm loving those beds in the teen room. And I do like how simple everything is...
