I’m magically in love with these belts. I was looking for a good non-leather belt that wasn’t stiff or prone to shredding to sport my favorite Heidi Abra belt buckles when I learned about Cliff Belts. Cliff Belts are made from sustainably harvested cork. Cork is the outer layer of the cork tree which is […]
…but until then…keep your feet warm and dry with my new favorite throw-on, all-purpose, retro-chic and very vegan boots Bogs Boots. I wore Uggs for years. Like most people I never considered what animal was being destroyed to make my warm calf-high boots, I just liked that they were indoor/outdoor and easy to put on. […]
I am gray. Which apparently isn’t as much due to my age as it is to my stressful lifestyle choices. My hair stylist found my first gray at 31. I was horrified and have waged a red-haired war on those little wirey strands ever since. To quote my favorite playwright: I am not going gently […]
“Wow, you have pets? I can’t tell, your house smells so clean!” Want to hear this when guests come over? There is only one solution. No need to spray chemicals into the air to mask the gentle smells of Fido and Fluffy. Buy this: an Austin Air filter . Yes, they cost a bit more […]

Recycling is such an easy thing to do, but I’d by lying if I didn’t sometimes wonder what happened to all the recycled materials newly made. And then I discovered 100% recycled aluminum foil. What could be better than this!? You use […]

Everyone loves these bags and by everyone I mean every dog owner I know. Fido and you are out walking, enjoying the green scenery, Fido drops a little one and you get the satisfaction of knowing you are cleaning up after your furry friend without damaging the planet. BUT what about the cats! I’m so […]
A while back I became obsessed with trash. At my house we recycle diligently (ok maniacally, have you ever seen a land-fill? Gross). I have two trash cans in the kitchen and I am proud to admit the one for recycling fills up faster. But one thing that was always on my mind as I […]
