As the cancer that attacks white blood cells began to spread, her mother encouraged her to write a bucket list of things she’d like to accomplish before the cancer wins the fight. It was only three days ago that she set up Alice’s Bucket List, but her brave face, and inspirational goals (which include increasing bone marrow donorship) have ignited social media sites, and her name has become a trending topic on Twitter. “I thought that I was just doing a little blog for a few friends!” she wrote, after the media caught wind of her blog and her name was mentioned across some of Britain’s most popular discussion and news shows. Her fast-spreading worldwide support has also i...

She is the real deal. Funny how life brings people at just the right time. When I first found Mary it was through her blogs. Way back in the day she wrote the most touching blog about Zach, after meeting him for the first time. Later she became one of his most vocal supporters, trying to garner votes for him when we were pushing him through the channels on his way to win the LiveStrong Dare to Share Your Story contest. Her account of meeting him at his very first triathlon was so quintessentially Zach that I knew she ...

(Ever met a five-year-old who didn’t like worms?) But when it comes to storing rotten food in or near the house, we prefer to keep things under good-looking, odor-free wraps. So whether you’re transferring your slop to a garden or just being ecologically mindful indoors, here are five comely compost containers that we would allow to live in our kitchens. Ceramic Compost Pail from Williams Sonoma This low-profile bucket is small (one gallon) and keeps compost from smelling funky with replaceable charcoal filters. Its ceramic material and white finish definitely up a kitchen’s chic-quotient. Just don’t mistake it for the cookie jar. ($32) Bamboo Compost ...

Ha ha!Most of you who read this know there are things on my bucket list--(the one I created in 2006 upon my second cancer diagnosis)-- that I've slowly been checking off. This time it was visiting California, which I'd only ever experienced from a stop over at the LAX airport on the way to Hawaii (lame!).Back in the fall my friend Kevin called me and happened to say "hey, why don't you come visit?" and it was impetus to actually consider. Kevin lives outside Los Angeles in Playa del Ray, right on the beach practically! Kevin has the life, seriously. Okay now I get it...now I ge...
