Tarte Cosmetics {Review}

tarte collage (Large)

About Tarte:  “Before I started tarte out of my one bedroom apartment in 1999, I was a total beauty addict like you but quickly became frustrated when I couldn’t find healthy, nourishing cosmetics – everything I found was full of unhealthy, synthetic formulas. And whether it was department store makeup or one of the very few ‘healthy’ makeup lines I was able to find, the packaging was so unglamorous I hardly wanted to buy it let alone take it out of my purse in public!  So I set … [Read more...]

At our house we have been trying lately to be a little more "green." My son is the one who started it. He is always telling us to recycle, he makes a point to taking certain trash to the composting bin in the backyard, and we just planted our first family  garden this weekend!

Zoppe Italian Family Circus- My Favorite !

zoppe circus

Zoppe Italian Family Circus hit our town again this year- and just like last year, I loved it. It is now my favorite for so many reasons. We have taken the kids to a few large scale well-known circus, and we had fun, were entertained and would go back, but Zoppe holds a special palce  for all of us now. It is not the flashiest, biggest, most technical, or hyped- but what makes it special is the small intimate atmospehere that the whole crowd can be involved in. To start- the whole "family" … [Read more...]

We were hooked.  "Why not open a store that featured boys clothing . . . and nothing but boys clothing?" we pondered.  "A place where parents could bring boys to try on clothes … [Read more...]
