Wow. 2010? No Posts? And 2012 is almost here. I can't believe it. It's been a crazy couple of years. I have a new little one. Two is fabulous. We have moved and are living a much greener life in that big space up there above the United States. We are living a life of gardening for our food, living our life in the present, and most importantly, I believe, we have decided what is

So it is no big secret that I am a smoker. I choose an alternative way of smoking and that is through an electronic cigarette. Right now, the FDA wants to take my electronic cigarette away because they claim it is a "new drug", even though it contains approximately 589 ingredients less than tobacco before burning. It also uses vaporization, which means that it can also be noted it probably

For years, I have had digestive issues that I thought were "normal". I thought it was normal to go #2 more than four times a day... thought it was normal to have a loose stool every time... and thought it was normal to be bloated to a point of being uncomfortable.In taking a look at my life, I stopped taking birth control, stopped taking any and all medications, took my diet down to rice and

Ok... so many have probably read about my distrust for ConAgra due to the "Peanut Butter Fiasco" as I like to call it. In a nutshell, several years ago, before this last huge peanut butter scandal that rocked the US, ConAgra put some peanut butter out on the market that had salmonella in it as well. Stupidly, I bought some one sale thinking peanut butter is peanut butter and well... unwillingly

So. In a quest to make myself a better/healthier person, I have attempted to eliminate caffeine and I must say, it has been a freaking disaster.Let me start off by noting that I am usually a two cup a day coffee drinker and that is it. That's it! No soda. Very little chocolate as I don't really have a sweet tooth.The first two weeks I suffered from horrendous migraine headaches. Horrible.

So... here I am. Smoking my ecig. I smoke it at least 15 times a day. I have gotten down to a combination of no nicotine and low nicotine, smoking mostly no nicotine all day and then smoking low nicotine at night, with a beverage or two (wink wink). It is wonderful that I am still smoking, but not really. I feel awesome. Just this past weekend we went to the park and I ran about a half mile

Well. I have been a busy girl lately. The ecig has taken off and many may or may not have heard that there has been a call by the American Cancer Society, American Lung Association, Tobacco Free Kids, and Senator Lautenburg, to have the FDA ban the electronic cigarette.It has all been very interesting. Over 20 suppliers have gotten together to form the Electronic Cigarette Association (ECA).

In my online forum regarding the electronic cigarette, we are having a debate on whether the electronic cigarette is better for the environment than a tobacco cigarette. I have to side with the e-cig as being better for the environment. Yes, it is probably true that the manufacturing plants of ecigs produce unwanted items into the environment, but the same can be said for tobacco cigarette

Wow. I am happy as a clam. I cannot tell you how much easier this time around has been... and I owe it all to my electronic cigarette.Since I am in the electronic cigarette world, I know how absolutely terrible it is to even put electronic cigarette and quit smoking in the same sentence. It is a smoking alternative. However, I have quit tobacco cigarettes so technically, it might not be

Today, I woke up and worked on perspective. Rarely, do I ever lie in bed until 10:30 and ignore EVERYTHING going on around me. By the end, my conclusion was I would put down the combustionable tobacco cigarettes... again.I have been spending an obscene amount of time online. Utilizing every aspect for research of smoking bans, smoking, smoking's impact on the environment and so on. This has

About a year ago, I went on the hunt for a different option for the classic, doctor prescribed methods of birth control. After having a baby and three years of dispelling baby weight, changing eating habits and such, also subjecting myself to the shot, the patch and the pill, I decided it was time to take a leap off of the bridge and go solo. No birth control.This is definitely a strange

Yep. Update on Jake. He is back in the yard and looking large and in-charge. Did you know that southern black racers can climb trees? Well they can and they are really really good at it. As much as I love Jake, now not only do I have to look where I step but I have to search the tree limbs for him too.Sorry there is no video... yet.

So here I am, trying to figure out what to get my mother-in-law for the holidays and it occurs to me, the best gift idea for a smoker isn't an ashtray or a lighter, it's an electronic cigarette. I know... I have shamelessly bragged about these before, but I really do love mine and I really do see a wonderful opportunity for smokers to pick something else. They are so much better for the

I have changed my mind regarding the bailout and assisting the big 3. Screw them. Yes. I know this goes against what I said earlier. But after listening to the talk for a few days, sitting down and writing a bit for my hubs and for palinsgop.com, I have decided that if we truly are in a free enterprise system, then would it not be logical to let the big 3 fend for themselves?

We have all wondered where it goes. Here is an interesting video from CBS's 60 Minutes.Watch CBS Videos OnlineYes, this is horrible. In fact, what is really horrible are the amounts of green jobs we are shipping overseas. I do hope that as a nation, we begin to focus on another environmental problem, and that is our recycling program. We need to unify it country wide so everyone can

How it's going... so far pretty good. I am in the sixth attempt at this so hopefully this will be it. The kid has given up thumb sucking in exchange for my cigarettes. And no, she did not take up smoking. So to help others find out how this works, I made my first YouTube Video and I did get some pretty good angles of the actual smoke. In this video, I have shown how the unit comes apart, how

With the upcoming election, there have been discussions on whether voting is a responsibility or right. I would like to make the argument that voting is an obligation.From the moment I can remember, my dad and mom used to wake us up on election day at 6 am so we could be at the voting booth by 7 and to school by 8. Back then, you would walk into this Wizard of Oz like voting booth, pull the

The kitchen wall finally received a fresh coat of paint. As a good little environmentalist, I chose to spend $10 more per can and paint with a low VOC paint. The very first thing I noticed was there literally was no smell. Even the husband noticed the difference.The second thing I noticed was the coverage. Upon putting the first coat on, I was a little freaked out that it appeared to be very

Yes, gas prices are on their way down... and I see this as a massive problem. Yes, there are some families who rely on their vehicles and desperately need to have some help at the gas pump. But we have seen such a huge change in demand. Driving habits have changed, people are opting to find more fuel efficient ways to live their lives. I fear that if we allow prices to go down, people will

A few weeks ago, Jake slithered off to the neighbors and I think they killed him. They kill everything that ends up in their yard and their mini grill between our houses, let's just say it delivers some not so regular meat smelling smells.Anyhow. I haven't seen Jake in almost a month. We have also encountered several "new" snakes. I am sorry to say that in a moment of weed eating, a small

Well this is just about the coolest smoking device I have ever seen. The Electronic Cigarette. It runs on a rechargeable battery. You put this small little nicotine cartridge inside, twist it together and then smoke. It looks like a smoke... and has an led light on the end so that when you pull your drag, it lights up. Oh and the best part... this really is the best part... it creates a "fog"

My boss gets a good laugh when I agree with him that this "Earth Loving Hippee" isn't yet sold on the CFL or Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb. Yes... they definitely save on the amount of energy used to run them. However, what about the disposal process? Containing high amounts of mercury... we all know that our county recycling programs don't pick up light bulbs so where else would you put it?

So yesterday at lunch, we had a very interesting conversation about some idiots comments on the radio regarding recycling. He claims that recycling is worthless because instead of sending one, highly environmentally un-friendly truck to pick up our waste, they have to send two. Unfortunately, like Michael Moore, everyone has a forum to express their opinions no matter how un-educated it is. And

Wow! In watching "Get Fresh with Sara Snow", one of my favorite shows ever (beside the "Manic Organic")... a factoid ticker says that the average American gets less than one serving of whole grains a day. To me, this is hard to believe as I get at least 3, which is the recommended... and sometimes even more. Call me crazy... but anything whole grain tastes delish! From thick and hearty "adult

I am sure you have heard that used dryer sheets are excellent dusters. Well... my genius took over the other day when I realized that my floor swiffer duster cloths were out. Two used dryer sheets fit perfectly along the bottom and they attract everything. So save those used dryer sheets and recycle them!

All of my non-green associates are constantly telling me that global warming is crap and that the perrill of our planet is ficticious. Even though, in the same breath, they tell me how they remember when they were kids that this over here was a park and that was complete jungle... the road from here to there was two lanes and dirt... and that was only twenty years ago. My response is always... "

In our yard, we have several wonderful animals. Some not so wonderful animals... The squirrels around the yard have banned together and made a penthouse suite out of our crawlspace. These guys started the "moving in" by peeing on all of my patio furniture AFTER chewing through the screen. I hand scrubbed every cushion several times until my OCD did not smell or itch from the now intruding outdoor

My blogging absence has been a result of having a full time job. At this full time job, I was given the recent pleasure of attending a trade show where an organic vodka was served, as a martini. I must tell you, not being a martini drinker, that was the best damn martini I had ever had.So now, I am craving this straight up vodka basically... and am realizing how much is out there in the way of

So switching water bottles has been a challenge. There are so many do this and don't use that's out there that I finally had to pull my bootstraps up and jump.We have chosen the propel flavoring. A. It is the best. It tastes the best... and well, it is shocking enough to switch the family. B. It is the easiest available. I can pick up at the local grocery.Here is the process: I filter the water

So I decided to investigate growing mushrooms. Well... what a fun task that could be. I will have to keep researching. Living in a southern state, mushroom growing is hard unless done indoors. And, that takes a lot of energy. However, there is a ton of research to do....My garden is going to take off here soon. We have decided we are going to give it a go and start to grow some serious food back

Here was my question: Does honey go bad?No. Honey can not go bad. It can crystalize and separate, but keeps indefinitely.To fix this problem, all you need to do heat it up. So... I will have to try this.We use A LOT of honey. Tonite, we chowed on our favorite organic fries and Eat Well Popcorn Chicken. So you have to have honey mustard. It is as easy as it sounds. You can make it heavy on

So I think that today was a rockin' good day. There was a great find at work that I can be proud to move into the market and offer an awesome, eco-friendly product to the retail industry. Woo! I am not going to get excited because we are "dating". The manufacturer called me today and I am thrilled.We also made a fantastic dinner. The Man popped some steaks on the grill and I stirred some organic

Every morning I notice that my ass is getting bigger. My pants, which just recently fit me quite loosely, are now tighter. My underwear... it is more snug too. I know it is not because of what I eat but how much. Since quiting smoking... I work from one side of the kitchen to the other and then sometimes, back again.I went to yoga tonight and it was great. I love the stretch. Gentle yoga of

Today has been a pretty good day. After a pretty good breakfast, the Squiz and I headed downtown to the Farmer's Market. There, we found some excellent deals on this weeks worth of organic and locally grown veggies and fruits, some organic, unbleached pastas in various flavors, and a way cool leather cuff made by a fellow hippie-chick.So the Farmer's Market is a definite winner. $15 in fruit and

Now that the first blog is out of the way... hopefully this will be much easier.Living green is really an effortless task once you get going. I, by no means, profess to be the greenest person on this earth, but it is safe to say, I am one of the greenest, if not greenest person I know. And that, is a problem.I deal every day with people making silly "organic" comments. I glory in the knowing that

I have tried at least four times to start my first blog ever. What kind of blogger am I? How am I supposed to put my deepest and darkest and nastiest thoughts out there on the innerweb to let the whole world see? I haven't the foggiest godamn (spelled properly thank you) clue.A few things about myself... I am a mom. I have a garden. I work at a full time job. I have a college degree. I am
