Hello, Friends! I was recently interviewed by J.R. Watkin’s Clear Conscience Blog and I was asked all kinds of green lifestyle questions, here is a peek:
One of our favorite eco-friendly bloggers is Jennie Lyon of Sweet Greens. She dishes on all things earth-friendly, from food to family fun. In addition to writing Sweet Greens, she’s mother to one little boy and two of the cutest dogs you’ve ever seen. Jennie was kind enough to answer some questions for The Clear Conscience Blog and share some of her great advice here.
Jump over to the Clear Conscience Blog to check out the whole interview and to find out what my favorite J.R. Watkins product is. And a big thank you to J.R. Watkins for featuring me.
I love these transparent bubble huts from French designer Pierre-StĂ©phane Dumas. Wouldn’t these igloo shaped tents from Bubbletree be perfect for camping? I love the idea of being cozy inside at night, snuggled up watching the stars! I wonder what type of material they are made from and how the temperature is controlled?
Would you camp in a bubble tent? Or, would it freak you out that anyone could see inside?
May is National Bike Month! Have you pulled your bicycles out of the garage yet? Do you plan on riding your bike to work today? One of the things about South Florida that I dislike is – it isn’t very bike friendly. There are neighborhoods and communities where riding your bike is a pleasure, and super easy to do. However, overall, for people who want to commute to work by bike or travel long distances – South Florida isn’t the best place. We do have the beach, the ocean and fantastic weather all year, so I won’t whine. Ha!
Here are some of my favorite bicycle related posts to get you in the mood for bike week:
– Did you know that I am obsessed with bicycles?
– I am still loving the idea of riding a Velorbis Mobii Bicycle, a STRiDA Eco Folding Bike, a Madsen Bicycle, a Papillionaire Bicycle, a Republic Bicycle.
– I also wouldn’t mind being in a Bicycle Wedding Party!
Do you love to ride your bicycle too?
I can’t think of anything more synonymous with summer than ice pops. I know it is only May – but I am ready for summer! Some of my favorite childhood and adult memories include ice pops on a hot summer’s day. You?
I really want to make ice pops this summer with Eben and I just came across this new book called People’s Pops by Nathalie Jordi, David Carrell and Joel Horowitz. It’s packed with ice pops that you can make using farm-fresh fruits in interesting combinations. Think: salted caramel and apricots! Fantastic.
Do you make your own ice pops? What is the most interesting combination of ingredients you have used?
