What is raw cheese? I don't know what it means that this cheese is raw, I'll admit it. But it tastes really good, not smoky whatsoever. It's got great classic sharp cheddar taste, a mildly yellow complexion (aka not dyed orange) and it's organic. I don't know where it's made though, and there are some pretty good local...

Too much packaging & imported These crackers smell and taste good, have the consistency of a saltine, and goes well with cheese. :) They're also organic. I definitely do not mind eating them.
But, they're imported from Italy (I have nothing against Italians or their crackers, it just takes a lot of steam to get the crackers...

subtle, creamy & yummy This cheese is made locally to me, in Point Reyes CA. They use milk from the Strauss family creamery in the cheese which is certified organic, so the cheese is organic. It's a soft cheese, and I found it to be very tasty. It was very subtle, buttery, not sweet, no overwhelming aroma. For folks who...

stinky garden goodness Blood meal sounds gross, and it kind of is. It's smelly and strange. But, it's a great source of nitrogen for your garden. I used it when preparing my vegetable bed this year, and when I transplanted a shoot from my grandma's lilac bush, and the bush thrived. I also am impressed that it and many...

back to nature = Kraft I love love love love love Crazy Bugs mac'n'cheese. I really do - the pasta is in the shapes of wriggly worms, moths, and grasshoppers. :)
But sitting down to review them, I realized I actually should look closer at the box; this isn't the healthiest thing just because I bought it at Whole Foods...

ummmm, yum. If you try to have the health benefits of dark chocolate, but really love milk chocolate better, this is the perfect chocolate. I am a big fan of milk chocolate but know I deserve a slap on the wrist for eating it. So, with this chocolate, I win.
It's organic certified and fair trade certified...

comfortable flattering and organic I adore the shirts made by Maria. I was lucky enough to have a coworker who knows her, and I got one for free, and I immediately emailed Maria asking if I could buy the same style in all the rest of the colors.
The clothing is high quality, organic cotton, low impact dyed, locally made and sold...

sadly underwhelmed. :( I really wanted to like this place because they use only compostables and their menu changes every day so the ingredients are seasonal and from small farms. And they have nice staff. BIG PLUS. A BIG CRY FOR 5 STARS.
But #1: The bin for composting doesn't look like a compost can, it looks like a...

trial and error in gardening - commiseration! This is a story about Amy's first garden, which spoke to me as a gardener very well. It lets you know you're not alone - we've all killed a rose bush, planted a plant hoping to please a creature (Amy plants catnip for her kitties), dug things up on accident or too soon, bought EVERYTHING from the...

fascinating and accessible This book takes a practical and somewhat scientific look at earthworms and the role they play in our world. Amy Stewart writes really simply and well. She takes the reader from purchasing the worm bin and worms she feeds and houses in her backyard in CA, to the midwest where non-native worms are...
