Fabulous Friday Featured Seller – picky

March 5, 2010

Shop: Picky
Cats or dogs?
Dogs, so I can dress them up and try out some woolies for them!
Star Wars or Sleepless in Seattle?
Sleepless as far as the romantic in me goes, but my favorite movie right now is “Meet the Fockers” cuz I wish I had parents like Barbara Streisand and Dustin Hoffman’s characters.

I’ve been wondering this question for sometime now and figured I’d leave it up to my faithful readers.

6 Nontoxic ways to polish your silverware

February 23, 2010

Korean Style Tofu

February 22, 2010

We love tofu. I know I know…..you can’t eat too much soy. Over 90% of soy is genetically modified so eating organic is a must. But when we do eat tofu, we eat un-adulterated tofu.
