As much as I care about being green, focusing specifically on green fashion is relatively new to me. In recent months, I’ve started trying to reduce my purchases – buying less, and repurposing what I already have. However, I’m definitely a girl who loves clothes, and I often get sick of what I already own. [...]

Pretty Green Tip: Get it “For Here”
I had some time to kill late Friday afternoon while I was waiting for a friend to get off work. I had a long night (comedy show and drinks with friends) ahead of me, so some coffee was in order. I walked by this super cute new coffee place called The Creamery (shouldn’t they sell [...]

Baby, When the Lights Go Out
I have a secret. Well, actually, if you know me at all, it’s not so much of a secret. I love boy bands. Love them. In fact, I’m cleaning my room and listening to *NSync Pandora right now. I’m totally dancing around to a BBMak song. Maybe I shouldn’t share these things with people. Anyway, [...]

Seasonal Pizza and Good Folk(s)!
Last night, after carpooling with my boss (yay for carpooling!) home from work, I took BART over to the East Bay to meet my sister for dinner and to see my friend’s concert. I have to say, I really love taking public transportation, and I always forget that! Taking BART, or Caltrain like I did [...]

Lunch in the Park
What a nice lunch break I just had! First I went to the San Mateo Farmers’ Market and got a bunch of great stuff – a red bell pepper, a yellow bell pepper, asparagus (which will apparently be in season until May, head’s up. Get it while you can!), Brussels sprouts, apples and hummus & [...]

Tweet
After resisting and proclaiming “I don’t get it” for so long, I’ve decided to Twitter. Yeah, I know. I’m obsessed with updating my Facebook status, though, so why not? (By the way, how cool am I? I even have a Google Doc called “Future Facebook Status Updates.” I know. Not cool! ) Follow me at [...]

Here It Goes Again
Oh man, I just found out I got a spot in the Nike Women’s Half Marathon. I didn’t get the official notification yet, but they charged my card, so I guess I’m in! I’m excited for the challange, and the Mile-of-Chocolate and all, but man… does this mean I have to train again? At least [...]

Pretty Green Mani
Did you know most nail polish is not vegan? I didn’t, until I saw this line of nail polish by SpaRitual advertising itself as vegan and free of DBP, formaldehyde and toluene. Now, I’m not vegan (this green girl has gotta have her yogurt, cheese and ice cream), but it’s good to know for those [...]

Zanzabar
I love my Saturday horoscope. Leo: Little changes make a difference. Do something eco-friendly today and you’ll feel fabulous! I mean, I wrote it, but whatever. It’s still sage advice. (I apologize for the horrendous grammar in many of these horoscopes. I have to write a lot of them with tight character limits! Oh well, [...]

The Next Day an Asparagus Came and It Was Not Friendly
Hello, spring! I was happy to find asparagus at the Farmers Market two weeks ago – first crop of the season! I had been planning to title this post Waiting for Asparagus, but then I remembered this story my mother transcribed. I have a whole book of stories I told her when I was between [...]
