Have a Lovely Green Weekend.

Hello Dear Readers,

How was your week? Was it just me or did it seem to fly by? This weekend Eben and I are going to make his valentines for school. We haven’t completely decided what we are going to make, but we do know that they will include Mad Libs.

Saturday day, while Eben is celebrating the birthday of one of his dear friends, Mr. Sweet Greens and I are going to spend time together having tea at one of our new favorite local bookstores. Then, Saturday night, Mr. Sweet Greens has a special surprise planned for my birthday. I wonder what it could be? Then Sunday morning, 3 of my lovely girlfriends are taking me to a lovely little place called ‘Le Creperie‘ for brunch to celebrate my birthday. My closest friend Jennifer planned the entire surprise, is she a doll, or what?

How about you lovely readers? What does your weekend look like?

If you have a newborn or an infant, then you probably won’t be making Valentine’s for her classmates this year? You won’t be purchasing a sweet treat either. So what can you get your little cupid for Valentine’s Day? How about a box of organic cupcake onesies from The Baby Bunch. Are these ridiculously adorable, or what? The box comes packaged with 4 organic onesies that are rolled to look like cupcakes. Perfectly sweet.

Today is National Wear Red Day.


Did you know that the number one killer of women is heart disease? The American Heart Association is a national voluntary health agency whose mission is to build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Since 1924, the goal of the association is to spread the word of cardiovascular diseases and help raise funds to fight these diseases.

Astral Health & Beauty Brands—parent company of Pür Minerals, CosMedix and Aloette—is lending its support to the American Heart Association and its efforts to help women fight heart disease with passion and positive action. In 2010, Astral Health & Beauty Brands will donate $250,000 to support the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women ® movement, furthering the health and well being of women. How fantastic is that?

Want to learn more about the Go Red for Women Movement and how you can help, go here. Show your support for women’s heart health by wearing red today.
