Companies That Rock
What started off as a small idea has grown into big business. Lara Merriken started Larabar in 2003 inspired to make healthy products that taste good. Now millions of Larabars are sold every year.

Not So Scary Spirituality
Due to some unexpected complications, I was told to halt my yoga practice during the third trimester of my pregnancy. I kicked and screamed like a two-year old. After a while I figured out why. Without my yoga practice I wasn’t sure exactly who I was and if I didn’t want my husband to strangle me I was going to have to make “Not Doing Yoga” my new practice.

What Am I Reading Now?
This book called to me on so many levels- mother, writer, and lover of all things French. All these parts of me have been deeply and truly satisfied. I laughed my way through this book (French children under two years old eating fish and carotte vinegaraitte for lunch at their day care center?) I also asked myself many of the questions this book challenges us to ponder (can a child begin to “live...
