A unique blend of plant oils approved by the FDA as food additives. Non-selective insect killer.

Non-harmful to plants. Can be used on vegetables, ornamentals, lawns and entire landscape. Product provides residual repellent effect for up to 30 days. May be applied to edible plants up to the day of harvest. Safe around children, pets and wildlife. The active ingredients in these Green Light Products are unique, patented formulations made from plant oils and other ingredients widely used as food and cosmetic additives. These plant oils kill insects by blocking specific neural pathways that don't exist within mammels or birds. These plant oils attack the Octopamine neuro-receptors. Octopamine is a key insect neurotransmitter that regulates insect movement, behavior, and metabolism. The blockage of the receptor activity prevents the transmission of the Octopamine signals which leads to certain characteristic signs of toxity such as excitiation, hyperextension in the hind legs and abdomen, followed by immobilization and/or knock down, followed by death. this process will begin immediately. Mortality can occur within minutes of applicatio, but may take hours depending on the type of insect pest and concentration of product that contacts the insect directly. Bioganic can be used up to the day of harvest on vegetables and other edible plants.

I learned about this from a Kyoto-trained japanese gardener, and like it so much I'm ordering the bigger size. I have done both foliar and root application using the hose sprayer that came on the smaller bottle. The mint covers the not-awful fertilizer smell quite well. Have also had good results using on my bonsai.

Oyama CFS-B12U All Stainless Rice Cooker Review

Oyama CFS-B12U All Stainless Rice Cooker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I LOVE rice and just wanted a reliable, quality appliance to make it for me while I worked or did other things. So after sifting through hundreds of non-stick crappy cookers, leaking and exploding cookers, and the countless bad reviews, I finally came across the Oyama stainless rice cooker. I ended up purchasing it on Bonton.com because it was on sale for $49, but their customer service is absolutely wretched, and I would go back and spend the extra $20 here at Amazon for quicker shipping and better service (not mention, Amazon won't triple-bill you for one order and take over a week to put the money back in your account).
PROS:
* Easy to clean. Ridiculously easy to clean. I tend to get eczema on my hands when I wash them frequently, so I appreciate that I don't have to use a bunch of soap and scrub the pot to get it clean.
* Cooks white rice, brown rice, short grain, long grain, blah blah...I've used many types in the cooker and they never burn. I add about 1/2 cup more water than the instructions say because I like my rice more moist and sticky.
* Keeps the rice warm and moist for a long time after it's done cooking. I tested this for a 24 period and their little booklet was right...the rice was fine.
* I love the stainless steamer insert tray. When the rice is done, I put frozen organic veggies in the steamer tray, close the lid, and come back in 5-10 minutes and everything's ready to eat.
* No spills or leaks or crappy, cheap parts.
* Fits on the counter really well.
* I really love that everything is stainless inside, because I know nothing is going to leach into my food.
CONS:
* I can't think of any, actually. I'm really happy with this unit and I hope it lasts a long time!
I hope you find this review helpful.
Best,
Stephanie

What is a massage candle? Light the 4 ounce candle and burn it for 15+ minutes to enjoy the wonderful scent. Extinguish the flame, then use it as a warm massage oil. One of the benefits of using Greenfire Candles for massage is that the warm oily wax soothes dry skin: Greenfire's premium and unique blend of all-natural vegetable and soy waxes is vastly saturated with Vitamin E. Use Greenfire candles for their healing purposes. They're perfect for foot massages. Greenfire's wax blend is the safest and most luxurious wax on the market. Premium, food-grade ingredients and the wax's low melting point mean the product is entirely skin-safe and warm to the touch. The vitamin E will absorb into skin, leaving it luxuriously soft and fully renewed. The uses of Greenfire Candles are endless! Light before you get in the shower, then use it on your feet, elbows, and/or legs afterward. Keep a small candle in your purse and use the unmelted wax as lip balm or to soothe mosquito bites. Light one to set a mood, then use the wax with your partner to trade massages. Have a spa party and light several scents, letting each participant try their favorite after a manicure or pedicure. Or simply use them to lightly and perfectly scent a room, knowing the wax and lead-free wick are safe and toxin-free, unlike petroleum-based paraffin candles or other candles that use lead in the wicks. Please read instructions on the bottom of the candle prior to use. Burn time: One ounce burns about 8 to 10 hours. Tins are made from partially recycled materials. All tins are food-grade and 100% recyclable or reusable. We have special prices for wedding and party packages. Call or email for inquiries.

I basically bought this candle because I needed to spend a bit more to qualify for free shipping. From the picture I thought it would be about the size of a coaster. I almost gasped when it arrived as it is around the size of the container that your typical lip balm would come in - extremely small. I love naturally oils and products as much as the next person but spending $7 on a candle that burned for a couple hours is a bit beyond my means. It was a very good smelling candle but I ended up snoozing for a half hour or so and missed most of it.

Stainless Steel Rice Cooker Model ME81 (Formerly ME8) - by Miracle Exclusives Review

Stainless Steel Rice Cooker Model ME81 (Formerly ME8) - by Miracle Exclusives
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We cook rice and grains frequently, as do many Asian-Americans. We have used plastic-bowl microwave vessels, aluminum & teflon pots, steam pressure cookers and several others over the past five plus decades. They all work, but each has a down side. For instance wait till your visitors or grand kids hear the hissing monster of a pressure cooker.

We feared aluminum toxicity, teflon ingestion, plastic leaching and plain uncertainty of what new epidemiologic research will unleash on us tomorrow. My wife and I have conveniently labeled our failing intellects as chronic "rice-in" toxicity. Forget age, it must be all that peeling cooking pot and rice!
The stainless steel Miracle is a reasonable answer, unless we find out in some distant future that stainless steel is also a hazard. Probably not. This cooker performs well and passes muster readily with us. We have not noted any spills or crusty rice paste sticking to the bottom. We do have the advantage of having cooked rice and grains for many years. But this is an easy skill to acquire if you learn to vary the amount of water used to suit the type of rice or grain. Don't lose heart too soon.
The pot washes easily if you soak it in water for a few hours -- and better still leave it overnight for your spouse to take care of tomorrow!
A vege tray comes with the cooker. It steams beans, peas and carrots well and to a ready-to-eat tender state.
I agree that a price of some $50.00 would have been better, but the convenience and safety are worth the added whimper while you pay the price. You could shop around and may be able to find a slightly lower price. And don't blow the savings on pricey coffee.

Organic Cotton Reusable Mesh Produce Bag (3 Pack)
Average Reviews:

These bags are perfect for buying produce. They don't work as well to store produce in the fridge, the mesh allows too much air and veggies tend to wilt much faster. But I bought them as grocery bags, not as storage bags, so they're perfect for what I need them for! The tare weight is sewn into the bag, so the cashier can deduct it easily, but each bag only weighs 0.08 lbs so it only costs a few extra cents if you forget.

Many cities are eliminating plastic shopping (checkout) bags, but they have failed to address the fact that on most trips to the market we also use 6 to 8 plastic produce bags. Our Reusable Mesh Produce Bags eliminate the need for plastic bags. They are made of UNBLEACHED ORGANIC COTTON material. Although higher in cost, unbleached organic cotton provides huge benefits to the environment and our health, because it avoids the highly toxic pesticides, fertilizers and processing chemicals used in regular cotton crops. Reusable Mesh Bags are great for fruits and vegetables. The mesh fabric is highly stretchable and allows for easy identification of contents. They can be used for both shopping and storage, as the cotton material allows for excellent air circulation. Easy to care for, just wash in cold water and line dry. Expect about 10-20% shrinkage on the first wash. The mesh material will stretch back out to near the prewashed size when filled with produce. For smaller bulk produce see our Organic Cotton Reusable Produce Bags, made of solid muslin sheeting.

I just started using these bags, and I've only washed them once (regular cycle + hang dry), so I can't testify to their long term durability, but I love them so far. They didn't shrink much when washed. I know from today's shopping trip that one bag comfortably holds 6 very large peaches, and I think I could have gotten about three more in there if I had tried. They're also very lightweight, which is a big concern when you're buying produce by weight.

The idea is simple: collect post-use, single-use chopsticks from restaurants, thoroughly clean them, sanitize them at extremely high temperature and pressure, and use them to make high-quality accents for the living space. The idea is Kwytza (pronounced k-why-tsa) Kraft. Research shows that literally billions of single-use chopsticks are consumed annually. The more shocking revelation was that it takes, by some estimates, 25 million trees and bamboo plants to support that resource waste. After extensive research and development efforts, including a unique process for reclaiming and thoroughly sanitizing chopsticks, Kwytza was born. Bryan Parks created these wonderful products by pairing eastern aesthetics with western conservationism. In an effort to be more environmentally friendly, the colored chopsticks are all dyed using natural plants.

I have tons of cloth shopping bags for when i get food but putting my fruits and veggies in those clear plastic bags always made me feel guilty, especially since most of them are made out of the number 4 plastic which i dont have somewhere to recycle them. These bags solved my problems
They come in different colors and sizes, i have a few of each size, they fold into themselves and have little hooks on them as well so they store great and you can put them where you need them. They are mesh so the person ringing you up can see what is inside. They wash well. I have not had them long enough to tell you how long they last but i will but an update when i feel i need to buy new ones. I am so please that they are made from recycled material, not only are you saving excess plastic waste you are keeping a demand up for the use of recycled goods. An awesome find.

I have been using these bags for a few months and get asked all the time where I purchased them. I have been taking my own reusable grocery bags for a while and always felt bad about still using plastic for produce. They are holding up well so far and wash well. You can see through the bags, so the grocer can see the tags easily when making your purchase. The last time I was at the local natural grocer, the checker asked again where I got them and wrote the name down. They may want to carry them in the store, since they get asked for something like this often. By the way, the Flip & Tumble Reusable Tote - Brown grocery bags are great, too. I always have one in my bag so that I am not often left without a reusable bag.
