I Heart My Hot Rollers

May 1, 2013

** I Heart My Hot Rollers **

My friends and family know that I am addicted to hot rollers. I have been using them since my stepmom introduced me to her Con Air Rollers as a little girl.  My Mom, like most of you, would roll our hair up in sponge curlers the night before a special occasion so that we would have bouncy Shirley Temple curls for pictures.  I think that hot rollers are the easiest way to add a little volume while styling your hair.  I use them a minimum of three times a week and I have owned two sets of rollers since high school.  If you do the math, these things are indestructible.  Let’s just say if my house was on fire and you asked me to take a few beauty products with me, these would be one of the first things I would grab {wink}.

Earthling Month // Whole Foods

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.
