This past week was most definitely bitter sweet! I am excited we are now closer to friends and family, but I am sad that our little American adventure has come to an end. We have spent the last 3 years living in the US, and have enjoyed every minute of it. I guess all good […]

Project Green Foot- Week 37
The one thing I was hoping to never purchase was disposable diapers. This past week, little E had a rash that was out of control, so we had to take her to see our naturopath. It was recommended that she wear a disposable diaper at night, so that we could slather Calendula diaper cream (contains […]
Project Green Foot- Week 36
I will get this out of the way now since I am being honest about our spending. I got a Blendtec. I have been eyeing them for over a year and a half, ever since I began eating raw. At that time, we decided to invest in a juicer and dehydrator because I already had a food […]
Project Green Foot- Week 35

Since we juice and drink smoothies daily and eat lots of fresh produce it is not difficult to consume all the fruits and veggies […]
Project Green Foot Week 32
There are many reasons that I enjoy going to local farmers markets, but when a farmers goes that extra mile, it just makes you want to keep on going back every week. You see, the market I go to has the option to pay with a credit card, if you so choose. I usually pay […]
Project Green Foot- Week 31
This past week we went out to eat a little more often than usual because J.P’ parents were visiting and we spent the week-end in Austin. I did pack snacks to avoid purchasing prepackaged foods and I did of course have our to go goodie bag handy. I also made sure to compost waste and recycle […]
