Bamboo Water Bottle Review

By Tiffany 3 Comments

I have a small water bottle collection going on at my place. I have my water bottle that I take to the gym and another one for hiking. I have a couple glass water bottles for when I don't have to worry so much about breakage. I have stainless steel water bottles that are perfect for the kids to take to school and now I have a nifty new bamboo water bottle from the Bamboo Bottle Company. I have been using it in a variety of settings for a few weeks now and I like it well enough to give it a … [Read more...]

Tips on Avoiding Food Waste

Americans are notorious for wasting food. While over 1 billion people on our planet do not have enough to eat per day Americans throw away approximately 1,400 calories of food per person per day.

Green School Supplies Letter to Teacher

By Tiffany 28 Comments

When I wrote about a Green Back to School I received a question about how to handle supply lists you get from the school with specific product requests that are not so green. I am all too familiar with these lists and yes many do request specific products or brands that are not so great for green people. So I have written a sample letter you can send along with your student to explain why you have deviated from their recommendations. Feel free to use it, edit at will,  and it pass it along to … [Read more...]

My Son Thinks We Steal From Whole Foods

By Tiffany Leave a Comment

I was doing a bit of blog reading this morning and came across a hilarious post at Of Fish and Family. It reminded me of situations in my own family.

This reminded me of how my own husband often comes home from the grocery store with junk food in hand. I don't … [Read more...]
