Still the Mind.

It's true my mind is rarely stilled. At the moment my most relaxing event is a nice hot bath with a mug of hot chocolate. Ah!

We all have our ways to still the mind - share yours and inspire someone to be still.

Pre-washed lettuce and chlorine. What's the link?

An interesting article appeared in the Globe and Mail (written by Heidi Sopinka) today letting “us” know that pre-washed lettuce means presoaked in chlorine. “Byproducts of chlorine have been found to be toxic; they accumulate in the body and have been linked to cancer, birth defects and reproductive disorders.”

We just did an e-bulletin on bleach (solution of chlorine) so take a look for more info.

Caffeinated Soap?

There are those who've said to us why worry about what you put on your skin - How will it hurt you?

Well there's a new product on the market that puts caffeine into your system simply by washing with its soap. Its absorbed into the skin and wakes you up.

Can’t say I need to be woken up that drastically.

Mascara

Despite the fact that my lashes are long and Patti's are short we both include mascara as one of the two most essential cosmetics to wear when leaving our homes. (The other is lipstick!)

We have listed our product reviews on our site. Are there any you have tried? What did you think?

Thanks for sharing.
