A year or two ago, I said goodbye to using plastic bags and now have amassed quite a collection of reusable tote bags in their place.  It’s just a decision that makes sense on so many levels.  Besides the crazy amount of plastic bags I would end up with if I didn’t make the switch, [...]

Sweats and t-shirts are go-to clothing items when you’re looking for comfort.  You want the articles of clothing to be soft, stretchy and most of all, comfortable.  Who wants itchy, constricted clothing when they’re hanging out, working out, or just hitting the sack?  Not I!  Now if you can find comfy soft clothing that is [...]

When I was a little girl, I was one of those kids who loved stuffed animals. From giant teddy bears to soft bunnies, I loved them all. Dolls too. In fact, I once set up a stuffed animal display in my room where I carefully arranged all of my fluffy friends.
What I didn’t have in [...]

One thing I’ve definitely learned through our frequent reviews on organic clothing … the stuff is soft.  Ultra soft.  Rub-your-cheek-up against-it soft.  And who doesn’t want soft clothing?  I don’t know about you, but I don’t think it has to be just reserved for babies … I’ll take a soft, comforting t-shirt any day.  Enter [...]
