This is a great post to follow “The Irrational World of Alternative Health” from yesterday… The Center for Spirituality & Healing at the University of Minnesota has some fabulous (and free) modules on integrative therapies. Click here to visit the site and gather education on everything from chiropractic to music therapy. And big bonus for those in health [...]
Not all of Burt’s Bees products are as healthy as would be expected, but they’ve done a solid job in the lip category (well… actually, the majority of their products are safer than most brands). As a bonus, you can purchase the special edition Beeswax Lip Balm and help support research for Colony Collapse [...]
Yum. I Just finished fixing and eating the 6 Bean Organic Soup from the Women’s Bean Project. The Women’s Bean Project is a nonprofit organization that produces gourmet foods to sell in specialty shops and on their online store. Women’s Bean Project employs women who are in need of jobs and teaches them [...]
Ten Thousand Villages is my favorite store of the moment. It’s a fabulous shop that houses tons of handmade, fair trade products- everything from food to jewelry. Mom just got me a beautiful necklace from 10,000 to celebrate my graduation (back in December). It was made by some amazing artisans in Burkina Faso. It feels so awesome to [...] I’m seriously jealous of the diverse varieties of fruits that grow in the warmer climates of the world.

If you’re trying to buy local, it can be difficult to [...] I’m not much of a beer drinker. So, the usual summer BBQ doesn’t have the drink selection that I particularly like. If I plan ahead, I’ll make some tea or ginger ale (find my recipe here), but planning ahead is not something I do particularly well. Thankfully, I have a backup- here’s a handsome picture [...] My favorite product for the week:
Umm, need I say more? This is chocolate. Delicious chocolates with caramelized bananas and other yummies hiding sweetly inside. The most fabulous part about these chocolates is that the proceeds go to Relief International for the development of a women’s center and to help feed malnourished children in Darfur. You also [...] Carbon footprint that is. Here is my favorite product for the week:
It is estimated that U.S. dog owners don’t pick up 4 million tons of poop per year. Some statistics also list dog poop as number 4 on the list of bacteria contributors in contaminated water. Yuck. These are 100% biodegradable poop bags that have [...] Ah, Sunday. Here is my favorite “thing” for the week…
Laloo’s Goat’s Milk Ice Cream. I know, it might sound a bit frightening, but let me assure you, it’s amazing. I am mainly a vegan, so there are not very many animal products that I can recommend. But, holy goat, I would bathe [...] |
