mod*mom, honestly

This post is all about one of the coolest chicks I've never met. Not only is she a speedskater with a degree in environmental science, she's a survivor and fighter with sublime taste. She's a web guru and design goddess, bumping tiaras with Maria Shriver(this post is hilarious, READ IT!) and getting friendly with Dwell. Above all, she's a proud mama to mod*tot.

Some may say her blog is all about design. Or maybe marketing with all of her fantastic and unbelievable giveaways. What I love the most about her blog is her dedication to being green and educating everyone in the process. You never really think about how cost is influenced by packaging until you read one of her posts(also happens to be a chance to win some great product) and a sidenote explains how environmentally friendly packaging can "add 18,304 more pouches per truckload, which means they will use 277 fewer truck shipments this year to ship honest kids + honest tea, saving fuel + reducing CO2 emissions."

I won some Honest Beverages! I can't believe it. I can't wait to try it. What great timing. I emailed her and told her she made 'this unemployed mama's Saturday night." I was already a Method girl before I found her, but she totally turned me on to dropps. People REALLY do win on mod*mom's hip and cool website. She'll even send you emails to remind you to enter her intriguing and FREE giveaways. See that swank little icon of hers on my sidebar? You can get your very own! When you get there you might be reminded to squeeze your lemons or you might win something funky and lemon colored. You just never know.

Think of all the good karma + tell your friends about her. Then they'll tell their friends and so on and so forth...just like Farrah Faucett for Faberge Organics. A giant chain reaction of goodness. Thanks, mod*mom! XOXO

FYI: + = homage to mod*mom she's the Queen of +!
