As mentioned when I made my Primal Coconut Raspberry Muffins last week I am trying my hardest not to buy LaraBars or any prepacked snack/meal bars anymore. Too much packaging and too much money spent voting for companies that do not share my values. There are some pricier bars I could buy from more ethical companies but those bars would cost upwards of $2.00 a piece. No thanks...and it doesn't solve the packaging issue. Well this weekend I found a darn near perfect solution and I am rather e … [Read more...]

We took it with us hiking … [Read more...]

Back to School – Green Style
Yes, its that time again! What is about back to school that gets everyone excited...even if you homeschool? This year I will have one child at home (and my toddler of course) and one in private school so I do have to do the whole "back to school" thing for her and finding ways to green the school routine are FUN! For the most part I get to just breeze past the local store displays of crayola crayons and lunchboxes...although I have found some green options there too. Here are some cool "green" s … [Read more...]
