Back in 1995, my mom and I took an amazing trip to China. Thanks to this sponsored guest post, I can see we missed out on some fun outdoor adventures. Maybe it’s time for another trip!

I am super excited to announce (way after the fact) that I am part of the 2015 Oboz Trail Team! Nearly 100 people applied, and 16 were chosen. Lucky me! What is Oboz? What’s the Trail Team? Most basically, Oboz makes hiking shoes and boots. And they are based over the hill in Bozeman, Montana. …
In the last month, three different friends have asked for recipe advice after their kids decided to go veggie. Im putting my suggestions here in the blog so that next time someone asks I have a thorough resource to point them to. Ive been a vegetarian for 24 years and our kids have been eating …
