Happy Times – Snack Time

By at March 4, 2013 | 1:48 pm | 0 Comment

Can you smell me?

By at November 20, 2012 | 3:30 am | 2 Comments

I sure hope not. For nearly two years, I have been making small changes to become more green, live better and healthier.  I have held on to a few things though, with one being my deodorant.  It's an antiperspirant. It's horrible for me and full of chemicals, but I don't smell and I don't have sweat coming down my arms. Then I read a blog post by Dirty Diaper

It's been a few months since we headed down this path and every day I am more grateful for our decision.  There have been a few moments that have stuck out in my head over the past few weeks.
