			<description>Preserve Tableware

It has recently been my pleasure to review Preserve® Tableware.  Preserve is an innovative company that has been highlighted in the New York Times and Better Homes and Gardens Magazines.  They make eco-friendly products for the home that are not only stylish and strong, but are affordable too. On top of that, the company has a strong social and environmental ethic that definitely qualifies it as a business that all Eco-Babe’s should know about.

			<description>Elimination communication

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Elimination communication (EC) is a practice in which a caregiver uses timing, signals, cues, and intuition to address an infant's need to eliminate waste. Typically the goal is to partially or completely avoid the use of diapers. EC emphasizes communication between the caregiver and child, helping them both become more attuned to the child's innate rhythms and control of urination and defecation. The term &quot;elimination  ...</description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm currently co-sleeping with my baby. Initially I used one of those cosleeper bassinets, but that still kept him too far away. After a while I just slept on my side with him next to my breast. Feeling him breathe and make his cooing sounds may have kept me up at first, but now it's like the most beautiful and relaxing sound in the world. Co sleeping is great cause I sleep when he sleeps and so I'm not too worn out.

Alternative Menstrual Products

 

Since most young women use name-brand pads or tampons during their period, you might not know that there are other products to choose from. If you are looking for more environmentally-friendly menstrual products or have concerns about the chemicals and synthetic materials used to make regular pads and tampons, you should know that there are other types of menstrual protection available  ...</description>

			<description>So I've been using Kiss My Face shampoo for a while now. The particular shampoo is organic and has no SLS or Parabens. So when I needed to buy more shower gel, I went with the kiss my face brand. I got the patouli body wash. I didn't bother looking at the ingredients. When I got home I used it, loved the smell, but it left my skin feeling icky. I looked at the back and found out why.

Shopping list

1 pound ground turkey breast

8 oz mushrooms

8+ oz of frozen spinach, thawed

1/4 c grated parmesan cheese

1/4 c bread crumbs

1 large egg

Food processor helpful.



Thaw and squeeze as much water from the spinach. You can play with the amount from 8 oz +. The more you add the greener the meatball and that can be fun!



Clean and finely chop the mushrooms. They keep the meatball moist.

			<description>Has anyone else ever tried using Dr. Bronner's shikakai soaps to wash their hair. Each time I do, my hair feels thick, tangly, and greasy. It's like horse hair. I've been using it for about 3 weeks now. I've been washing my hair about 1-2 times a week. I'm thinking of switching to baking soda. I ordered some of the Dr. Bronner's hair rinse, so I will try that and if that doesn't make it better, then I'm gonna try something else.

			<description>Many people have asked about it so I thought I would address it here. Burts Bees is not organic. They say so on their website. Some of their older products are fairly natural, but none of their ingredients is organic. Some contain &quot;fragrance&quot; which is linked to headaches, allergies, skin sensitivities, birth defects and cancer. The excuse they give on their website sounds like a copout. NATURAL does not mean ORGANIC or CHEMICAL FREE/SAFE. It's a misnomer than advertisers and marketers  ...</description>
