**Full disclosure: Thunderpants USA sent me these undies free of charge to review and share with my followers. The following is my honest opinion.** In the world of ethically made and sustainable apparel, it seems basics and undergarments are nearly always tossed by the wayside.

Ethically Made: Sseko Designs
I admit, I am a bit biased. Sseko Designs might be my favorite brand, although I'm sure I will say that about others later this month. I started with Sseko because I support their mission and I use their products daily. Even if you're not sold on the idea of ethical shopping because of cost, [...]
Summer Reads: Half the Sky by Nicholas Kristof & Sheryl WuDunn
Women hold up half the sky. -Chinese Proverb For the month of July I've been reading Half the Sky by Pulitzer Prize winning authors Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn. Over the course the last several weeks my husband has asked a few times what I am reading. And I find that question hard to answer. I'm [...]

So far, we have called Modesto home for a year and a half. We still struggle through the warm, ok HOT summers but the mild winters are a win for everyone. Although, it may not be your top spot for a vacation destination, Modesto is home to some great year round events and boasts moderate [...]

Paris 2015 | part une

Accidental Saints
I knew I'd love Nadia when I saw her tattoos. As one who has thought a bit differently on what the gospel means to love thy neighbor, I see a soul sister in Nadia. You see I'm drawn to people who love Jesus that don't fit the textbook definition of what a Christan should look [...]
UK 2015 | Ireland
We only gave Ireland 2 days one in Belfast Northern Ireland and one in Dublin which is in the Irish Republic. Since we had such a limited time in both places I opted for the early flights to Ireland from Edinburgh, arriving before 10:30 am, so we could see as much in Belfast before leaving [...]
