Go Green With Recycled Stretch Bag

barbara

I came across this really cool bag made from 100% recycled advertising campaign billboards yesterday. You know, recycled stuff have never been this chic. This stitch shoulder bag is made without any glue. Can you believe it? Inspired by the strength and symmetry found in nature, it can support up to 33 lbs. You can put just about anything in this bag such as groceries, flowers and even your tuxedo shoes. It is available in the colors of recycled billboard or natural brown leather. I prefer the brown leather one. If you are interested, swing by IloveUma.com for more information.

Flexible Roll & Go Keyboard

A friend of mine came back for a vacation recently. Guess what he brought back as a gift for my hubby? A cool navy Roll & Go Keyboard. I have never seen anything like this before. It is a flexible full-sized keyboard and made with high-quality silicone. It fits any USB or PS/2 interface. Another great thing about this keyboard is its silicone material which is waterproof and allows extra-quiet typing. There is no question who is using this keyboard in our home now.

How To Protect Your Kiwi Fruit

I buy a lot of kiwis for my 5-year-old as kiwis are a great source of Vitamin C. When we we go out, I would bring the fruit along just so that she won’t skip her fruit intake for the day. However, it is not easy to keep the kiwis from not getting bruised or squashed in the bag. Yesterday while surfing the net, I found just the coolest thing to protect the kiwi. It is the Kiwi Guard which is a sturdy case to protect the fruit and it also holds a cute lime green cutlery to prepare and eat the kiwi. This is the coolest thing next to natural treatment of eczema. I am definitely going to get this Kiwi Guard. It is available at Random-Good-Stuff.com.

Avocado Saver

barbara

I was reading a magazine at my hair salon over the weekend and something interesting caught my eyes. It is the Evriholder Products Avocado Preserver from Organize.com. Whoever thought of this is purely a genius. Avocado lovers are going to love this. When you can’t finish a piece of avocado, just place the balance with its pit side-down into the saver. It will hold the fruit in place with the adjustable strap. This way, the avocado won’t turn brown. Pretty cool lil knick-knack huh? For fresh and delicious avocado whenever you want them, just get the Avacado Preserver.
