Review of Wisdom of the Last Farmer

I’m a book addict. At any given time, I’m in the middle of a handful of books, both fiction and non-fiction, and reading is one of my favorite activities when I need some downtime. I’m also a pretty critical reader, perhaps because I’m a writer, and I usually have a good sense of whether I’ll [...]

The role of the dad in families is rapidly changing. I know, state the obvious, eh? More fathers are opting to be the stay at home caregiver, there’s an increased interest for dads to be a bigger participant in their children’s lives, and more men are questioning their priorities.

There probably aren’t many kids (or parents) in the US who haven’t read a Magic School Bus book at some point. They’re really great for older kids who not only want a story, but also want to learn something at the same time. So when I got a review copy of The Magic School Bus [...]

At our house, we only use 100% natural products for personal care – and organic if possible. Our favorite soap is Dr. Bronners, as it’s a ‘clean’ product, very affordable, and comes in a variety of formulations, from very gentle (for babies) to scented versions. We’re always looking for great products that fit with our [...]

I’m pretty conscious of the origin of clothing that I buy, and knowing that conventionally grown cotton uses more pesticides than any other crop, I’ll choose organic cotton every single time. I’ve tried a few organic cotton socks, and the quality of the sock itself wasn’t really up to snuff. When it comes to socks, [...]
