Living Green with The Honest Company

thehonestco Living Green with The Honest Company

It seems like everywhere you turn, people are talking about being eco friendly, or green.  This item claims to be eco friendly because it was made locally, or this one’s fair trade, so we should buy that.  Or this cleaner has natural ingredients, so that’s better for us to use in our home.  Truth be told, it can all be a little mind boggling. 

This process occurs with every single item that we come in contact with.  Recently, my local grocery store started adding signs on items that were made in semi-local plants, claiming that if you purchased those, that you were buying local.  Unfortunately, that’s not really what “buying local” means, either.  But they wanted to capitalize on the buzz surrounding it.

OOTS Lunchbox – To Lunch in Style

ootslunchbox 550 x 395 OOTS Lunchbox   To Lunch in Style
 
One of the things I am always on the lookout for is a cute or handy way to bring my lunch. I don’t like the idea of single use plastic or paper items, so I tend to bring my lunch in a re-usable satchel with re-usable containers and utensils. I just received a new OOTS lunchbox – the Blue Deluxe Lunch Kit – and I thought it was really cute.
 
 I have a big confession to make. I love to go out to lunch. I love to go, in the middle of the day, and have a nice meal. I don’t particularly care for fast food, but if I could go to a restaurant, be waited on, and have a tasty hot meal at lunch, every day, I would do that. And then, after I had my lovely meal, I would drift off for a nap…
 

Natural Deodorants from 30SomeWeeks

 

deodomom2 550 x 413 Natural Deodorants from 30SomeWeeks

So, I have an issue.  While I normally wouldn’t share, as it’s kind of embarrassing, we’re all friends here, right?  Of course we are. 

I’ve developed an allergy to my deodorant.  UGH!  It’s gross and kind of nasty.  I’ll spare you all the gory details, but I needed to find an alternative.  Since they – the GP doc nor the Dermatologist – weren't sure what was causing the problem, they suggested I try something else.  However, it was recommended that I stop using my deodorants.

Beanitos Chips Are a Good For You Snack

beanitospinto Beanitos Chips Are a Good For You Snack

As I may have mentioned a time or two, I love snack foods.  As I get older, I’ve been trying to eat better.  One of the best ways that I can do that is by eating snack foods that are better for me.  Beanitos Chips fill the bill. 

Beanitos are, as they name implies, chips made from beans.  I know you’ve got doubts about them.  But I am here to tell you – they’re good.  Really good and tasty. 

Beanitos chips are corn free and gluten free.   They’re also wheat, soy, and potato free.  Plus, they’re high in fiber and protein.  Even though Beanitos Chips are made from beans, they don’t create gas in your stomach.  How do they do that?  It’s a secret!  Well, it’s really that these are a complete protein and incomplete proteins are what creates gas.
