Rantings of a Workaholic!

Wow, so I had this whole post and then my computer crashed! It might be a sign!

You see, technically I'm supposed to be on "vacation". We can't afford to travel outside of FLA, so we're gonna take some day trips...economically feasible and eco-friendly!

Rather then try and recreate the long drawn out post of 20 minutes ago...the jist being that even though I'm on "vacation" I can't just turn off the whole "eco" thing. I'm constantly thinking "eco" this or "eco" that. It's who I am becoming. So as I lay in my backyard hammock staring at my tremendously cute, eco-friendly Naot sandals I felt the need to share.

You see, Naot (http://www.naot.com) sandals are hand-crafted in Israel, made with 100% natural cork and vegetable dyed leathers. They are extremely supportive and comfortable.

Check them out for yourselves!!

Okay, back to the hammock! :-D

Earthday 2009!!

Earth Day is April 22, 2009. What is Earth Day? Glad you asked...Earth Day -- April 22 -- each year marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970.

This Earth Day will mark the beginning of The Green Generation Campaign which will also be the focus of the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day in 2010. With negotiations for a new global climate agreement coming up in December.

For more info on how to join The Green Generation Campaign and to find an Earth Day event in your area, visit http://www.earthday.net/earthday2009

More than 1 billion people participate in Earth Day activities, making it the largest secular civic event in the world.

Eco-friendly Totes from Keen!

I had the pleasure of speaking with a Keen rep recently and was pleasantly surprised to learn that Keen Footwear offers stylish totes and bags made from 100% reclaimed rice paper...yeah, rice paper!

Brown rice paper is sprinkled with colorful rice bag designs for an eye-popping effect. Transition from the market to Main Street just like that!

Because of their unique nature, each item is one of a kind.
