Hurrah for syrah Of the three Frey wines I've tried, hats off to the Syrah. It's velvety and has a nice round bouquet.
The length begins with a big, velvety fruitiness and ends with blueberry.

mango my acai? Yo, this is good tea! And it's only got a few grams of organic sugar in it, as opposed to several dozen, which is typical of most crappy junk drinks. Did I say crappy junk drinks?
Anyway, this Honest Tea is a mixture of acai and white tea, which is the young version of your green tea, contains...

Earthwise file folders These colored file folders are made from 100% recycled fibers, and have a lot of post-consumer waste in them as well.
These guys are doing the right thing (I'm sure it's good for their business as well), and you should get their product for your office or home. Address the twin issues of...

Organic Coffee Co. There's a little cafe near where I work called the Organic Coffee Co., and they have this really good coffee called The Rainforest Blend.
They're part of the Roger's Family company, which is out of San Leandro, Ca., apparently, as it reads on the label. And they have their own fair trade...

good mac snack Every once in a blue moon (funny that's it's blue moon in June as I write this) I'll make some Annie's mac and cheese, the white cheddar kind.
The other day I melted in some sharp white cheddar as well. Highly recommended. Not a nutritious snack, but kids love it (and you know how they can be...

nice velvety organic Sangiovese Of the three Frey wines I've tried, the Sangiovese wasn't that good. Decent, but nothing to write home about.
Now the Syrah on the hand, well, that's another matter entirely.

minty gooiness Yeah, so these delectable chocolate bars have a gooey minty inside that's high-end mint. Combine that with killer dark chocolate and you've got yourself something nice to gnaw on.

a good baking stand-by My wife used this flour to make pizza crust the other night, after I picked a bag of it up at my local natural foods store. It's natural and unbleached, though not organic. But it made a really nice pizza crust. It's fairly hearty. This company is employee-owned, which is cool, and they've been...

TJ's isn't as green as you think I'd like to clear one thing up about TJ's, something I recently learned. The low price you pay at TJ's is due in part to the fact that TJ's lowballs its vendors by fostering competition among them and driving down the price of their goods, which in turns drives down the quality because the vendors...

cows that don't really have access to pasture On paper, it looks really good that Horizon cows have "access to pasture" but the truth is that almost all of them don't even know how to leave and access the pasture. So they stay penned up, feeding upon high-calorie grains and not getting out and getting any exercise. Horizon has come under some...
