We had a wild adventure yesterday with close friends and family (thirteen participants and one observer in all). My youngest daughter is about to turn 7. Her greatest passions are space, space travel, the sky, and dreams of flying or levitating. We are always trying to help our daughters have their dreams come true, but [...]

I’ve been asked how I choose what I recommend.
I only recommend products and services that my family and/or I have personally used. I don’t randomly put up links or become affiliates with companies just to earn a dime. This is a labor of love and passion; I really want to help everyone become the best [...]

Yes, vegans can eat chocolate. Yes, it is delicious and real. Pure dark chocolate is vegan. It is when dairy and sugar filtered with bone char is added that chocolate turns unhealthy and is no longer vegan.
Where can you find vegan chocolate? Just about anywhere these days! I’ve been pleasantly surprised at [...]

Ow, these are harsh words. But, are they true words? I didn’t believe them when I first heard them, even though I was already a vegetarian at the time (now vegan). When you doubt something you hear (yet aren’t willing to ignore and forget about it) what do you do? Well, [...]

In starting a blog, I did as many do: I googled myself and my websites. What did I find? Photos from Do Life Right scattered on various other sites around the world (more than a dozen countries, actually, so I’m quite flattered). In case anyone is interested, it is this photograph that is [...]

This is the best online store to purchase Webkinz:
webkinzpetstore.com
We’ve been enjoying our Webkinz charms and trading cards. Much to [...]

Goat-sha-who-ga-lulu-huh? Say what? I don’t know how to correctly pronounce it, but I do know this Ayurvedic Herb is a gift from the gods for anyone suffering from kidney stones.
If you’ve ever been in the middle of a bout of kidney stones or even a single kidney stone, then you know the pain [...]

My youngest is a ballerina. At almost 7 years old, she has been into dancing for years. With her interest in ballet steadily growing last year, we knew it was time to find a real (and good) dance studio. As difficult as that was, finding vegan ballet slippers was even more difficult! We tried all [...]

When I was pregnant with my oldest daughter, over eleven years ago, I craved Baskin-Robbins “Chocolate Blasts”. Being that I’ve become a much healthier person since then, I was afraid my chocolate blasts were doomed to the past (although I no longer craved them, I still enjoyed the flavor and texture of the icy chocolate [...]

We currently receive more than the following, but I’m only planning on resubscribing to these:
New Moon — Fun magazine for girls ages 8-15 (or so) and their families.
Wired — Interesting for the whole family, technically oriented. Through amazon.com.
VegNews — This magazine puts out a monthly online newsletter, too. Both have a lot [...]
