Interested in some podcasts for adults? Sarah shared her master list here. Do you listen to podcasts with your kids? I love it as both a form of entertainment (screen-free entertainment!) and as another medium for learning. For all of the podcasts on this list, the kids think of these as purely entertainment, and I […]
In addition to sharing our resolutions this month, we’re also going to share some of the good habits that we’ve picked up over the years. We try many things, but these are the ones that stuck. What is a podcast? It’s simply a digital file that you can download on the internet, usually part of a series, and […]
The beginning of the year is always a great time to re-evaluate habits and work on our seasonal routines. This post was originally published in 2019, and two years later, golden milk is still one of our favorite winter drinks. We hope you’ll give it a try! Have you tried golden milk yet? You may […]

In addition to sharing our resolutions this month, we’re also going to share some of the good habits that we’ve picked up over the years. We try many things, but these are the ones that stuck. A few years ago, I made a concerted effort to cut back on chemical-based cleaning supplies. One of the […]
In addition to sharing our resolutions this month (Kate’s | Sarah’s), we’re also going to share some of the good habits that we’ve picked up over the years. We try many things, but these are the ones that’ve stuck. As you might expect, we are seasonal eaters. In the winter I love to start my […]
Looking for a new stuffing recipe? Every year I pull out my well-loved copy of the 2015 Thanksgiving Special of Bon Appétit and use their handy stuffing customizer. Don’t have your old 2015 copy of the magazine? Never fear, the formula-maker is that good that they republish it annually on their blog. That article gives […]
With the new year, we’re starting a new weekly series called “Waste Less Wednesdays.” Our passion for preserving Mather Nature is strong, but we recognize that we live in a consumer-driven society.
