Puppy fever!

So Cael and I have decided that we want to get a puppy in the fall. We've fallen in love with a Bordernese - a cross between a Border Collie and a Bernese Mountain dog. They are such adorable little furbabies! Check these little pooches out!

We are going to be doing a little travelling in the next few months (yay Toronto and Mexico!), so we've got to wait to get a little baby :( I can't wait to find a little one to bring home!

Climate Action Dividend

So the government of British Columbia recently passed a measure to give each citizen of the province a cheque for $100 to spend on becoming more environmentally conscious. I decided to go shopping! I've recently met a bunch of girls who turned me onto Gypsy 05, a clothing brand from California. These awesome people have designed the most gorgeous clothes made from entirely organic fabrics and natural dyes in a solar-powered factory! How cool is that? I think that buying this dress was part of a lower carbon lifestyle!

Green me!

I have been thinking about becoming a more "Green" citizen lately. I've started to use only canvas reusable grocery bags for everything, washing clothes in cold water only, and walking more instead of driving (which is hard when you live on the side of a mountain a half hour away from civilization! I am seriously thinking about starting a compost pile when I move out to the Coast with Cael...If only the bears would keep out! Little buggers come around a lot up there, and I don't want to tempt them with an outdoor buffet. Hmm...
