So when my friend Carrie told me that for her, the highlight of the whole extravaganza was an eco-friendly stationery company in the back corner, I made a beeline for Paper Culture.

I’m always on the lookout for new and improved kids’ food and drink containers — which of course includes lunchboxes. I love the concept of these new Yubo Lunchboxes. They’re BPA-free, and they come apart into pieces that you can pop into the dishwasher. You can customize them by picking your faceplates, which is good […]
