Description
Oh my gosh!! These bars just totally made my day the first time I tried them. They are made of a sesame seed base, which is soooo different, but so healthy. Sesame seeds have three times as much calcium as milk! All of the ingredients are organic, and there are no added chemicals, synthetic fillers, or isolated vitamins/minerals- just wholesome goodness. These bars are DEFINITELY the most delicious energy bar I have ever tried!

Five LED Dynamo-Powered Crank Hurricane Lantern
First to recommend
Description
Lately my husband and I are very into gadgets that do not require electricity or batteries to operate, so we've been checking out solar-powered and crank-powered items. I review another crank-powered lantern with lots of cool features in my Green Living list, but it is quite a bit more expensive. This lantern is simple, functional, and SUPER-BRIGHT, much brighter than you would expect from a wind-up. If all you need is light, and not all those other fancy features of the higher-end crank lanterns, than this is the one for you! It's great for emergencies (like power-outages, never have to worry about dead batteries again!), camping, to keep in the car for roadside emergencies, and travel. We love it!
This lantern has the following features:
Five super-bright LED lamps
Dynamo power is ideal for emergencies, camping, picnics
Sturdy ABS housing, shatter-resistant thermoplastic lens
Protective aluminum roll cage
Overall dimensions: 10-3/4" high x 7" diameter; Weight: 1.75 lbs.

My First 3 Nature Games: Eco-friendly & Educational Board Games
First to recommend
Description
Scared by all the recent toy recalls (for toys mostly made in China)? Then look no further... a safe and eco-friendly board game, made in Canada of recycled materials, for children 3 years and up. It also teaches important concepts about our eco-systems, to help raise environmentally-aware kids. Cool!!

Natural and Handmade Organic Bark Soap
First to recommend
Description
This stuff is awesome! It is the most moisturizing and silky smooth natural soap I have ever used! Many natural soaps leave my skin dry and flaky later in the day, but I have not had that problem with A Wild Soap Bar's soaps. And this one is spicy, exotic, and ORGANIC!
