I just updated the site to the newest release of Wordpress today, so let me know if you experience anything that seems weird or unexpected. Thanks!

This month marks the second anniversary of The Sustainable Scoop’s creation, which was two years and five days ago. I’m always one to celebrate with music, so in honor of the site’s two-year-old birthday, I’ve created a summer playlist for you guys to listen to. I tried to include a good cross-section [...]

Hi everyone, I’m back! I had a great time in Mexico, where my lovely sister-in-law married her new husband in a beautiful ceremony. I’m still catching up with work and housekeeping stuff, but hopefully I’ll be able to post the (insanely belated) Monthly Meal for June sometime today. I have a lot of other good [...]

Thanks to everybody who gave me such great support in the comments of my “Return to Simplicity” post. It really meant a lot to me, I’ll be thinking about what you guys said for a while.
I’m not intentionally ignoring The Scoop, lest you think I’ve given up entirely. I’m traveling to a wedding in Mexico [...]

I know I haven’t posted yet this week, it’s mainly because my keyboard is on strike. The “o” button barely works, and the comma key is failing too. I need to get it fixed, but I have so much design work to do that I just can’t take it in at the moment… So, for [...]

Last week I posted two roll-call entries asking you, dear readers, what your skin care and beauty routines are. And you answered! I loved reading your comments; I got some great new ideas for products to try, and I learned that I’m not the only one who uses the occasional conventional product here and there. [...]

I know I haven’t posted for a few days, and I bet you’re wondering where I’ve been. Or maybe you haven’t, but I’m going to tell you anyway. I’ve been busy at work on my design website, KerryRobb.com. It’s nearly finished, now I have to configure a widget to display the contents of my portfolio [...]

I’m adding a new category to The Scoop: gardening. I’ve written about composting before, but as I’m learning more and more about keeping a garden, I’m realizing just how important it is. I’m not pretending that our garden (a handful of used wine barrels in our backyard) is going to provide all of the vegetables [...]

Well, I’m off for a mini-vacation to San Francisco for the next few days. It’s only an hour from where we live, but I’m going to stay in a hotel and visit a couple of museums. I was lucky enough to find a place to park that’s near where I’m staying, though everywhere I’m going [...]

After a long (but great) weekend at ExpoWest, we happily returned home late last night. I have stacks of notes on great new products, some seriously questionable practices, and updates on some of my favorite companies in the industry. I can’t wait to share it all with you guys, but I need a little “me” [...]

Just a reminder to you guys: If you have any questions I can try to answer for you at this weekend’s ExpoWest, let me know! In a few days, I’ll be hoofing it down the aisles at the biggest natural products show in the U.S. with my notebook in hand and [...]

Sorry for the lack of posts lately… I’ve been cranking on several projects at once, getting some of my clients (and myself!) ready for the upcoming tradeshow, ExpoWest. I’m going to be posting my Monthly Meal for February later today, so look for it this evening or tomorrow. Thanks for continuing to come back, it [...]

Hey, I was wondering something… Do you guys use Twitter? Or any other social or bookmarking sites? I’ve been trying to figure out what exactly is the appeal of these sites, and I don’t see the draw. Tell me, which of the following sites do you use and enjoy?

It’s that time of year again: in a couple of weeks, I’ll be attending ExpoWest. This will be my third year attending the show, the second in association with this website. Last year proved to be incredibly fruitful; those three days (and nights) of the show provided me with an unbelievable amount of material, not [...]
