Guilty Pleasures

You've resolved, in light of the current state of affairs, to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. The lights get turned off on leaving the room. CFC light bulbs grace every socket. Plastic grocery bags are verboten - canvas totes de rigueur. Compost pile is feed and watered regularly. You are already buying local from your neighborhood farmers market. Even your junk mail is recycled.

But, tell us...what are your guilty pleasures; the little splurges you indulge in no matter the economy or ecology?


A sweltering 10 minute shower when no one is home? A grande latte from the local barrista? Fresh flowers on the dining table every week? Can't pass on the Prada bags or weekly manicures? String cheese and Red Bull while perusing the recent 6 lb. issue of Vogue?

Come on, there must be something....We promise not to tell.
