This might be ridiculous, but…

I think Fitflops are too cool! They're not entirely aesthetically pleasing, and they're not super cheap (from fifty to eighty dollars), but I can wear them while grocery shopping in place of ankle weights and not feel like a turd.  I might just ask Kirby to hook me up with some of these for my birthday. In case you care: the benefits of Fitflops p.s. I have a feeling that the superbuff girl in the benefits picture didn't achieve that figure by walking in Fitflops alone. That's a model...

Link to Today was a day for buying things.

I ran some errands with my sister today and ended up making a few purchases. Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent- I've been meaning to try this for a while now.  I always forget about until I'm at a cookout and the only stuff available is Off!  I usually just suck it up and let the bugs bite me. Living Foods Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil- This is a definite upgrade from the jar that I just finished (which had a picture of shrimp on the label, and was found tucked between the olive and vegetable oils in Walmart).

Link to The Greenest List I’ve Ever Made

I've compiled a list of ten natural, green, and/or organic things that I wouldn't mind having. My birthday's in August. Har har. 1) Demeter Naturals Mimosa Perfume- Demeter Naturals fragrances are made from pure essential oils and have no Phthalates (put simply, Phthalates are chemicals that are intended to make scent last longer that are easily absorbed by our skin).

2) LunaPanties-Basically, they have organic cotton pads sewn into them.  The extra liner shown in the picture is for days with heavier flows.  I could easily make something like this at home, but I love that...

Link to Zevia is pretty tasty.

I drink a lot of water. When I'm not drinking water, I'm usually drinking fruit juice, herbal tea, or black coffee.  I swore off regular soda a few years ago after reading some really awful things about high fructose corn syrup (and settled for the occasional Mexican Coke), and I've never cared for the taste of artificial sweeteners that are in Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi (or the heath risks associated with them, for that matter).  I did some research on Stevia before purchasing Zevia Natural Diet Soda for the sake of making an informed decision, and...

Link to Neti Pots: a good thing

Thanks to this little guy, my nostrils and the surrounding area have never felt less blocked. Kirby has terrible allergy problems, and he said that he could breathe better than he had in years after using it the first time. In case you're unfamiliar with Neti Pots, they are remarkably easy to use. You just tilt your head forward and to one side. You pour the warm water, salt, and baking soda solution in the nostril that is facing the ceiling. The solution will eventually come out of the other nostril, along with a disturbing amount of snot (if you're...
