As I was riding my bike through Central Park in NY, I saw another biker, catching some zzzzz's -- why didn't I think of that?

I liked the green-leafed Park Flag flying next to the red, white, and blue.

Kids always know best how to have fun.

I brought some bags to clean up litter -- but I was amazed at how respectful everyone was being of the park grounds -- I couldn't find a single scrap -- OK, maybe one or two, but really, you could just sense that something new was going on here -- people dedicated to living clean and green.

At 39 weeks pregnant, my contribution is necessarily modest.  I'm making my own yogurt to avoid having more plastic containers to recycle. 

When I was in college, I had a friend whose parents were from France and I had homemade yogurt at their house for the first time and it was incredible. Ours is just as good. We have tried vanilla-flavored, coffee-flavored and plain and they're all good. Plus the little 4-oz glass containers are too cute.

The unit costs about $24 at the Park Slope Coop and uses about 13 watts of power per 32 oz batch (8- 4 oz. servings) and best of all...no plastic yogurt containers hanging around.
