Organic Caramel Candy


They're DELICIOUS!! After trying several brands and types of candy, I found one that is so good (caramel flavor but they make all sorts of candies including Lollipops) and tastes so much like any other hard caramel candy. It has great texture, melts like any other candy and best of all, it's organic. College Farm Organic makes these awesome hard candies, I bought them at Tunies Nutrition Center; but
college farm organic has a list of where to buy these yummy candies near you and delicious organics sells them too. They're also environmentally friendly-- the label says "... the wrappers are made of a fully-compostable material made from renewable resources...", they also have NO Gluten, Nuts, Soy,Eggs or GMO's. They're so great-- I love these candies!!!

Finally a NATURAL 100% toxic free deodorant-- Alvera


I can't believe it, finally a 100% toxic free deodorant!!!!  This is soooo good-- Alvera roll-on deodorant.  I personally like the aloe & almonds roll-on, it has a very, very mild scent and I stay dry most of the day.  I've tried absolutely everything from liken plant brand to using crystal deodorant and they both work ok but not great.  Alvera absolutely works, the label reads  "... all natural, all vegetable deodorant formula is designed to keep you dry and odor-free throughout the entire day" is very accurate.  I did find however that it didn't keep me dry enough when I played sports e.g. tennis.  Over all it's great and best of all non-toxic. I bought this at Wholefoods  and I know it's available at healthfood stores like Tunies or Greenwise, you can also get it online at  www.mothernature.com.

Fast Working Spray "Thieves Essential Oil Blend"


There's an unbelievable product that I use for skin rashes or irritations.  I went to the dermatologist to get a beauty mark removed and it didn't quite heal the way it should have, as a result I kept getting a rash around it.  I tried everything to heal it including all types of organic/holistic and prescription topical lotions, even antibiotics but nothing seemed to work.  My acupuncturist suggested I try using a spray of essential oils called Thieves, www.thieves-secret.com/thieves-spay.htm.  Within 3 hours it was 50% better and 24 hours later it was pretty much done.  Needless to say I'm a fan of their products, I also love their foaming soap and waterless hand purifier.

amazing organic tees



Found an amazing clothing company that uses only organic cotton, it's called Zella and is sold at Nordstrom.  The tees are very comfy, soft,  great cut, wash well, but run a little small.  I especially love the cut and style of their basic white v-neck tee, always looks great!  The price is on par with other similar brands, especially for the quality your getting .  Most of all, it's 100% organic, good for the environment and STYLISH. 

Food to Live By Cookbook

We discovered delicious organic Jumbo Thompson Seedless Raisins from Earthbound Farm. They are big, plump and they come in a resealable container. They are available at Nuts Online and in Whole Foods and Publix.

On the new packaging they are promoting their new Organic cookbook Food To Live By, we just ordered it on Amazon, we'll have a review when it comes!
