We’re a somewhat “crunchy” household and I try to eliminate using too many plastics in our home. I was looking for a glass or stainless steel option for kids cups that would be sturdy, come in cute colors, and be easy to clean. I scoured Amazon (as we probably all do) and came across Elk ...
Drinking enough water during the day has always been a huge feat for me. Throw kids into the mix and I was lucky to get two glasses down in a day. I tried carrying around a reusable water bottle but having to refill it over and over was so annoying for me and I would ...
Our family resolution is to ditch plastic completely. We already use beeswax wraps instead of plastic wrap, but were having a very hard time dropping Ziplock bags. I ended up getting a full set of Zip Top storage bags and a four pack of quart and a two pack of gallon sized silicone bags from ...
We recently moved to a new home and quickly realized that picking a rug is hard work. There are so many companies, designs, and materials to choose from. Do I want cotton? Wool? Synthetic fiber?

As we approach the second baby arriving, I have been actively searching for ways to make tough tasks easier. One of the the things I love most and one most stubborn problems in my NYC apartment is the high ceilings. I have fourteen foot ceilings in most of the rooms of our apartment, which makes ...
Steel options for travel feeding I have never been a big fan of plastic, and SO many travel containers for kids are made of plastic. I found EcoVessel when I asked a friend what non-plastic container she used for her kids. I ended up getting both of their kids water bottles to see if ...
