Day 10 - Fair Trade Month - Fluffy Royalty

The description of this quinoa from Alter Eco Foods has "fluffy" in it. How great is that? And it's a royal supergrain. Makes me feel as if I should curtsy or something.

Day 8 - Fair Trade Month - Bean & Body

Bean & Body - what a name. It just makes me smile. I have no idea why. It just does.

I tweeted about these today suggesting them as an energy boost and FAIR tweeted back suggesting pairing them with their CafĂ© Liqueur. 

I'm sure that would be delightful, but I'm also sure it wouldn't give me an energy boost.

It would be more like a nap boost, which would be really nice about now.

Day 7 - Fair Trade Month - Need a little magic?

Dr. Bronner's Magic "All-One!" offers about 18 billion fair trade products. Okay, maybe not 18 billion, but a lot. It will make your head spin.

And, during Fair Trade Month there is a 15% discount on selected items.

Fair Trade Month - Day 6 - Not just for your stomach

Fair Trade products aren't just for your stomach! You could think that from my last few posts.

This is the toner I use. I love the smell and that it's fair trade and organic. I've found it at Central Market and Whole Foods.

I missed a day

Well, my planning to post something everyday about Fair Trade products blew up yesterday. I'm not surprised, but at least I didn't just forget to post.

I got a text at 2 p.m. that help was needed at a concert, so I jumped in the car and headed that way to beat the bumper to bumper traffic that would soon develop. I didn't get back home until 1 a.m.  At some point in the evening I realized I hadn't eaten since 9:30 a.m. and then I didn't eat until after I got back home. It was a long and interesting night filled with a lot of music and laughter, but no food or seats.

This is what I planned to blog about.  Rooibos Superfruit Organic Tea from South Africa. Some of the proceeds from this goes to the Jane Goodall Institute.  I'm not sure why I typed all that out. You could have just read it off the package.

Fair Trade Month - Day Three - All My Sins


Came across this little number on Monday. My daughter feels it should be purchased and sent to Providence.

I tried to find out more about the brand online, but with no luck, however, I do know Whole Foods carries it.
