One of the early morning beach walks I take with Tamra Rose. The best part for her?? The birds, and passing dogs. :)

Dear to my heart-SEX.
The Art of Green Loving
by eartherotics
No matter how long I stare off into the distance with a creased brow, I cannot fathom a more natural human behavior then the sexual encounter. What started out as normal behavior 100,000 years ago has been molded over time into numerous culturally influenced categories. In the past, we called it wild, taboo or dirty, but nowadays – sex is fashionable. Today, sex is more commercialized than ever, yet sexual experimentation remains a dirty business. I don’t mean “dirty” - as in your conservative mother’s nagging reminder: ”not until you are married!” What I mean — is that if you aren’t careful, it can be toxic.
It turns out that humanity’s most natural expression of love can easily become a toxic affair for both lovers and the environment. When you and your partner are playing with sex toys, there is a good chance that they are made of poly vinyl chloride PVC which is a toxic and environmentally damaging plastic. Dozens of studies on phthalates, the plastic softener commonly used in PVC sex toys, clearly indicate a direct relationship between exposure and reproductive, cancers, and obesity. Believe it or not, your intimate toy has been manufactured as a mere ”novelty” by a completely unregulated industry. Since sex toys are not held to any measurable governmental standard of health, you shouldn’t be surprised to find a “not intended for internal use” warning on your brand new, tightly packaged stinky PVC vibrator. Under the eye of the law, your personal pleasure is nothing but a gag gift — but instead of laughing — we really should be gagging!
In Portland, we tout healthy living, family planning, and population awareness, but we are finding ourselves caught up in hypocricy regarding individual sexual practice. Most individuals own a sex toy, whether for themselves or for their partner, yet most toy owners are completely unaware of anything beyond an impending pleasurable experience. As good green citizens of this earth and caretakers of our bodies, the key question we always ask ourselves is: What am I putting into my body?
Why should such a crucial question end at foodstuffs, cosmetics, or pharmaceuticals? Earth Erotics would like to announce: The Green Love Project. In this online forum, we will pose the very same questions that spurred the organic foods revolution, but this time — we want to talk about “Doing it Green.” This blog is an open space for discussion on toxins, plastics, organics, the environment, and sexual health. Cheers to your health and your pleasure!

More Cowbell Please
I am laying on the bed, writing, with my coffee perched precariously next to me. I'm thinking that I need to get a move on, it's after 10am already, and the kids are fed...but I need a shower and to get ready because we are supposed to being heading to the beach with Becca soon.

New Friends For My Eddie
Jump Tam! Jump!
Tamra Rose decided shortly after arriving in Mexico that the pool is a wonderful place to be after all. She even has grown fond of the shower (and it is a damn good thing with the amount of sand she and Eddie bring back on their bodies and in their clothes from the beach!). :)
She thinks of herself as Grandma's swim partner, and it is a bad time indeed if we should forget for a moment!
How dare you Grandma head into the pool without me?! Here I come to throw myself to you from pool side!!
You should see her lunging for Grandma as soon as we get to the pool!
Grandma Tamra & Baby Tamra enjoying some sun and splashing.

Sounds like happy to me
I want to share with you some of the sounds I hear very often through all the open windows. I have grown to quite enjoy the sound of this music. I even know I will miss it, for some reason it just feels cheerful.

Sweet, sweet beach man
Yesterday I took the kids to this awesome little place right on the beach for dinner. They had an awesome salsa band playing, so there was lots of dancing going on in the sand as well as little kids running around (mine included) and playing in the sand and by the water. I thought one of the really neat things to see (besides the awesome sunset) was watching the waiters walk over or around all the kids, patting a head here and there, bending town to talk with a cute kid everyone in a while. No one was bothered that people had come out to dinner with their children, or that the kids where right under foot. :)
