From Sheila Sundberg of StylishHome.com Nothing feels better on a cold winter night than curling up under a down comforter, and resting your head on a down-filled pillow. It’s luxurious, lightweight and oh-so warm. Down is the soft layer under the feathers from the chests of ducks and geese. It’s natural, sustainable and renewable, and using it means you can turn down the thermostat at night, thus consuming less energy.

Ask NatureMom – Infant Formula & Toxic Cloth Diapers?
This is a new feature I have added to organize reader questions. Some days I spend quite a bit of time writing out answers to questions that readers send only to have someone ask the same question 2-3 months later and I can't find what I previously wrote. Well, it was about time I smarten up here...I will be answering them on the blog so I can just send a link...easy peasy.
