I am loving this Earthling Month movement by Whole Foods Market! What is an Earthling, you ask? “Earthlings are people that care about the world around them. Every day during Earth Month, we’re exploring the moments that make us more than human. See what other Earthlings are doing, learn something new, and add a moment of your own via Instagram, Facebook or Twitter.”
What do you do in your home to teach your children about caring for our beautiful planet? We are going to do a small vegetable garden in pots on our porch soon… and are hoping to spend lots of summer days spent rummaging through our local farmer’s markets. We are trying hard to not eat things with labels, and instead… making whole, fresh foods at home.
The title of this NY Times article speaks for itself. I wish everyone would read this and really take it to heart… Our family is in the process of making some big changes in a quest to simplify our lives which I talked about {here}. What’s your reaction to this piece?
A beautiful house tour of a 500 square foot apartment in San Francisco. A family of 4 lives there… both functionally and comfortably! You won’t believe how well they utilize their space while creating a serene and stylish home!
Botox, or no botox… that is the question! I hate to admit, but I am aging…. and it definitely is starting to show. As much as I’ve been in denial, I am not in my 20’s anymore with perfect, taut skin. In fact, my birthday is this month and I’m turning…. 35 {ok… perhaps I’m still in denial because I swear to you I don’t feel a day older than 27}! 10 years of marriage, 2 master’s degree’s and 4 kids in the last decade haven’t come without some ramifications! It’s time to put a little more attention into my skin. I remember my mom actually doing some of these facial exercises when I was growing up. I should have started then, but supposedly, it’s never too late to fight gravity and work the muscles in your face! I found these YouTube videos some time ago and have anxiously been waiting to share them with you! They may make you LAUGH, but it’s worth a shot, right{?!!} …. afterall, I don’t see botox in my future. I’m a bit too earthy for that. Since I already have a deep LOVE of yoga, why not try it for my face?!! The video below is to reduce the appearance of wrinkles around your eyes. I listed a few others targeting other areas, as well! Have fun and let me know what you think!
So… this miracle “sassy” water is rumored to help you maintain a flat belly and create a natural detox! The simple mixture fuses overnight and is used to help flush your body of toxins. It combines fresh water with lemon, cucumber and mint! Sounds revitalizing! Have you tried it?
With use of these 3 simple words, you could have way less nagging and negotiating going on in your home! Can you imagine? I honestly think Husby and I hear {what seems to be} hours of this on a weekly basis! I’m giving it a try!
Just a quick reminder that it’s the last weekend to make a purchase from our STELLA & DOT trunk show! Also, if you are looking for more recipe ideas or quick cooking demonstrations, you can click on the BlogHer TV at the top of this page on our right sidebar!
Have a lovely weekend!

I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
