By Tiffany Leave a Comment

One of the most pressing reasons that so many parents seek to live a greener lifestyle is because they are mindful of the fact that the earth is an inheritance left to the children.

Bazura Lunch Bags

I have been a gig fan of Bazura bags for a long time and just look at them... they are so darn clever!

Perhaps this may be a tad early but schools will be back in session next month. Something going on right now will certainly have an impact on your local school's lunch room. This article at The Associated Press confirms something I have suspected...the skyrocketing gas and food prices will be hard on public schools and school lunches. Even a one-penny increase in the cost of milk can cost the nation's schools another $54 million, said Pavel N. Matustik, chief food services administrator of the … [Read more...]
