Pale, pale green

I am not green. It isn't that I don't care about the environment, just that I have some sort of extreme aversion to being that "earthy-crunchy" person I've always snickered at.

Having said this, I am also completely OVER gas prices, would drive a Hybrid if I could afford to buy one, and am thinking about kicking my bottled-water habit.

In the spirit of such decisions, I visited a cute website called Ideal Bite. Basically, "Ideal Bite offers bite-sized ideas for light green living." No radical environmentalism, just smart ideas on how to kill the trees (and other things, I suppose) a little less frequently. You can sign up for daily tips.

And from this site, I discovered Ecoist. I am, admittedly, not an Ecoist, but they have really cute things! From their website - "We offer accessories made from mostly repurposed and sustainable materials and are produced in fair trade, sweatshop-free environments. We hope to inspire more people to become "Ecoists" and think differently about the things they buy, how they are made, where they come from, and vote for a more sustainable world."

And their handbags and jewelry are so very cute. And (mostly) affordable. And perfect for that environmentalist friend you have a hard time buying for.

And that, my friends, is a blog update. A green way to communicate and everything :)
