Do Life Right

There’s a popular cyclical argument amongst computer people. Some believe that the future of computers is the network (a standard Google is touting). Other’s believe it is the computer itself. Whichever camp people are in, they usually tout their argument vehemently. I’m not so vehement in my beliefs on this topic, [...]

Ask any person today where calcium comes from and 99 times out of 100, you’ll hear: Dairy, cheese, milk, or calcium fortified orange juice.
I find it fascinating how the milk industry has used this marketing gimmick so effectively that practically everyone I have ever met truly and honestly believes this myth.
Let’s start over. What [...]

We’ve tried Zazzle, Cafe Press, and the several other online t-shirt stores. They each have their own pros and cons. For the most part, I keep going back to Cafe Press and Zazzle. I absolutely love the postage stamps I’ve made through the Zazzle website with my very own photographs and computer [...]

After watching a fun McDougall M.D. episode (they are 30 minute shows shown once per week), we made a yummy vegan lasagna based on a recipe on the show. My daughters enjoyed making it!
Ingredients:

1 package lite tofu
1 package vegan mozzarella cheese - cut however you want

We’re huge Indiana Jones fans around here; we all loved the new movie (I thought it was the best one yet) and we’ve been working our way through The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones, Volume One - The Early Years, The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones, Volume Two - The War Years, and The Adventures [...]

My family and I (two daughters, ages 11.5 and 7.5) have been able to play with a variety of virtual pets over the past year and we’ve compared them side-by-side. The ones we’ve tried are: Webkinz, Shining Stars, Ty Beanie Babies 2.0, My ePets, and Ty Girlz. If any other company would [...]

Many items in a typical American home make the humans and pets in them unhealthy. Sometimes the effects are immediate, like in the case of some cleaning products. And, sometimes the effects take a bit longer. On this website, I like to tell as many people as possible about some of the [...]

Goals are important. Without them, we flounder, wither, and die (if not physically, then certainly emotionally and psychologically).
Yet, no one can truly make goals for anyone other than themselves. This is a trap parents often get into. It’s inevitable — we have dreams and desires for our children. There is nothing [...]
