By now, LifeDoneWell readers know how much I focus on sustainable living. But one piece of this complex puzzle that I haven’t yet shared with you is footwear.

I am really trying to change how I live and the products I use these days. My fear of the deadly effects of climate change and how we are destroying this planet are the main drivers. One of my biggest causes is our use of plastics and how they are devastating our oceans. When I see pictures of mountains of plastic floating up on beaches…

Compiling a list of Fabulous Finds is not always an easy thing for me to do. I don’t want to write about just any old products. The list needs to be about items that I really love and yes, use. It’s that much better when I know the products are made with stewardship for this planet in mind and forethought to my health. Here are…

Washington, DC is a city with endless things to do and sites to see. You have to visit multiple times to even come close to doing it all and to do it well. If you’re a first time visitor, of course you’ll want to hit all of the monuments and Smithsonian, walking around just to take it all in. We’ve been multiple times and still…

We are so fortunate to live in the New York City area. The only problem is when you have to go down 5 days a week for work, like my husband did, the last thing you want to do is go back down on the weekend. Hence, the spouse doesn’t spend as much time in NYC as they’d like. But all that changed when he retired…

During a trip to New Zealand this year, I was fascinated with the cool products they have that I had never heard of. Even better, they actually worked great and in several cases, tasted great, too! So, of course, I had to bring home as many as I could and then try to find them here. Because I certainly didn’t want to have to live…

There are some products I keep gravitating to. Maybe because they are both affordable AND work. I am so tired of being suckered into spending big bucks for products that end up being nothing special, but I feel sick throwing out. In the case of face products, rather than discarding, I end up using on my hands! What a waste of good money… Here are…

Sitka Alaska is a fabulous town. But I have to confess, we were not expecting much. Like most people who visit, we were there to get on a cruise. Yes, we were one of those people waiting to board a cruise. But our boat was a bit different. We were boarding the Mist Cove with the Boat Company, a twelve cabin ship. We were not on…

I’ve always wanted to go to Boulder Colorado, but it took my husband doing an Ironman race for me to get there. We stayed right downtown just a block from the famous Pearl Street Mall. That meant it was easy walking to shops and restaurants and there are many. That said, it’s also an easy town to get around in driving wise. We happened upon…
