A few years ago when the plastic pandemonium hit, parents couldn’t get their hands on  glass bottles fast enough. What was once an outdated only choice for bottle feeding has come back in a big way. Even now, with pretty much all plastic baby bottles boasting  BPA-free on their labels, many moms are still concerned [...]

When people ask me what to wear in Colorado, I consistently advise one thing — layers. Having the ability to pull a few layers together will make a huge difference in your outdoor experience. Of course there is the standard base layer that wicks away moisture and keeps you dry, but on a trail run [...]

My favorite mom accessory is the diaper bag. Handbags were always my big fashion splurge, but I’ve found that I no longer have the hands — not to mention physical strength and coordination — to lug around an extra bag (along with a stroller, car seat, carrier, and oh yeah, the baby). So I’m channeling [...]

 
 
The New Year is here and although I don’t make resolutions (never have) a little motivation inspiration is always welcome. In this case, a h-o-t pair of sequin booty shorts from Urban Outfitters. The minute I saw them I knew they were coming home with me. I also knew if I wanted to wear them [...]

Fall is a season that requires brisk hikes through brightly colored aspen groves on a Saturday morning…and giant crock pots full of chili when you return.  This is football season, after all, so proper attire is as much a priority as the necessary vittles.  I am not saying you should go jump into a Snuggie [...]

Yesterday was one of those beautiful fall days that make you long to be outside… and in my case fishing the Jackson River. However, work called and since I couldn’t be there I decided to write about one of my new favorite fishing shirts — the Eddyline™ Long Sleeve Shirt, by Columbia Sportswear.
I think it [...]

I understand that a speaker system might not be your typical “gear review” gear; however for those of you camping and traveling around you will be glad to hear about the Livespeakr.  I am a fan of music, and one of those people who fears silence – turns out there could be some merit [...]

I used to swear by my Nikes. Then, I couldn’t run without Asics (to be honest I still really enjoy them so don’t be surprised if there is another running post in the future!), but right now you wont find me on the road without my Environmentally Neutral Design (END) PDQ kicks. They are extremely [...]

As I approach the ripe old age of 30 I felt it was time to invest in a very grown up purchase – a wristwatch.  However,  I was faced with a bit of a challenge when looking into exactly what I wanted to adorn my wrist all day/every day – hip stylish watch with a [...]

I’m the first one to admit that a number of companies make wild claims about the power of their products in the green marketplace: it will save you energy, make you healthier, save the world. Not that this is a new concept. Since the first tonics were sold by traveling salesmen, marketing departments have been [...]

I have very sensitive skin. Once, upon moving in with a new roommate, I broke out into hives. I freaked out, thinking I was allergic to our duplex (or worse, allergic to her) but it turns out it was her Tide detergent that I’d borrowed. I usually go with All Free & Clear for the [...]
