As we all come out of hibernation, staying safe is on all of our minds. One of the habits we can adopt is bringing our own eating utensils while we're on the go. A handy dandy bamboo set like this will not only accomplish the task, but also help our environment. As we enter into this next phase, it’s nice to exercise new habits that will keep Mother Earth smiling. Click here to order from Amazon.

Congratulations to Marti Tirinnanzi, the winner of our Amazon $100 gift card giveaway. Marti lives in Washington DC with her King Charles Spaniel, Mason. She is a mother, a volunteer, and runs her own financial services consulting company. Marti writes " ... plastics contain harmful chemicals, that when permitted to sit in the sun contaminate the liquids with cancer causing chemicals. There are many reasons to avoid plastics!" Thank you Marti for doing your part to help our environment.
