My new go-to summer shoes are stylish, comfortable and eco-friendly! The Jade Knit Clogs are from greenReActives and made with innovative, sustainable materials - i.e. recycled bottles that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill. The clogs from greenReActives come in a variety of colors and materials (suede, knit, berber, faux fur-lined and faux felt).

Toniebox

I grew up loving “books on tape.” Remember those? I’d stick a storytime cassette tape into my own My First Sony Boombox. A cheery narrator would read an accompanied story as I “read” along. My husband and I still have some of the books and it made me want to share that experience with our daughter, Mabel. Now, thanks to Toniebox, I sort of can. When Jen offered for Mabel and me to review a Toniebox, I admit I wasn’t entirely sure what it was. … [Read more...]

Journal - Pen Heaven

In school, I had a journal that I used to love writing in. I tried to write in it daily but I generally wrote in it a few times a week. Sometimes I would write about my day at school, about my mood or life in general. Other times I’d make lists or doodle in it. As an adult, I’ve discovered that journaling is a great way to relax and de-stress. It’s an opportunity to quiet the mind, take a few minutes out of your day to write your thoughts out … [Read more...]
