Dorm Eating: Take advantage of kitchen time
As I mentioned last week, I am beginning a series on eating well while at college. While this is important for the health and success of every student, this can be a particularly difficult thing to do for students with food allergies or sensitivities. The focus of these posts is food that can be kept, […]
Book Review: Make Your Own Makeup
Did you know that the chemicals in commercial makeup can increase the risk of cancer, birth defects, nervous system disruption, immune system dysfunction, and many more negative health effects? Bad news! Even without knowing that, makeup has never really been my “thing.” I just never got into it. It seemed like too much work to […]
What I Learned: Sitting at your computer may be killing you!
To help supplement my 60-day blogging challenge, I have decided to start a series called “What I Learned.” Every Saturday I will post something interesting I learned during the week. It might be a bunch of little things I learned in class or, like today, a long post about a single topic. At my college, […]
Surviving College with Food Allergies
Food allergies and sensitivities seem to becoming more and more common. Peanut allergies are up. I had never heard of celiac before college, yet 3 out of 31 students on my study abroad trip had it. And, as you know, I discovered a sensitivity to nightshades and beans over the summer. With that discovery, I […]

But I don’t always have the time or manpower make up a homemade pizza with Will’s famous crust. […]

When living on a college campus, it can feel like you have no control over how environmentally friendly your way of life is. The hallway lights are on all night, you have little say in your food, there are paper towels EVERYWHERE. But there are things that can be done, from small gestures that add […]
The Why and How of Motorcycling
Motorcycling comes with it many stereotypes. Hoodlums and white trash riding their noisy bikes dangerously through the city and highways, polluting and disrupting the community. I get it. But you should know there is a whole culture of riders who hate those stereotypical bikers, probably more than any car driver does. Because it is those […]
Book Review: DIY Non-Toxic Cleaning Recipes
Many of you have likely heard of Mommypotamus. She has a brand new e-book out called DIY Non-Toxic Cleaning Recipes. You will probably see a lot of reviews on this book. That is because it is such a huge hit with everyone! No matter what your level of commitment to a chemical-free life, no matter […]
Think 30 mpg sounds good? Try 80!
That’s right, 80 miles per gallon. Not possible, you say? We must have an electric car, you say? Nope and nope. Will and I discovered that we had achieved 79.8 mpg (as calculated on the adjacent receipt) while riding a motorcycle. This wasn’t just any motorcycle ride. We achieved almost 80 mpg riding two up […]
