21/01/2008 In Green Living, Housewares, Organization, Shopping Tote, reusable by torilink
We are all worried about our planet, but what can we as individuals do to make an impact or to bring about any real changes?
Here is one thing each of us can do to help clean up the environment & help save the planet - buy a 6-pack of reusable shopping totes and use them each time you shop. Use them for groceries, at the mall, at the discount store, and the farmers market.
The average family brings home 1,000 bags every year. Most of those bags end up in land fills. That really adds up! 100 billion plastic bags are sent to landfill in the US each year.
Using one Reusable Bag for one year replaces 300 to 700 disposable bags.
So, now you have ONE THING YOU CAN DO to help save the planet! And, really it is a simple thing to do.
Will you do it?
You can find the following Reusable Shopping Totes online:

12/01/2008 In BBQ, Breville, Panini Grill by torilink
Die-cast, professional grill converts easily from a closed contact press to an open BBQ with non-stick plates that are ribbed on one side and flat on the other. The grill is versatile enough to prepare every meal from breakfast to midnight snacks.
The top plate can be adjusted to six preset heights. On the lover settings, this patented feature reduces the weight pressing on more delicate foods. The higher settings are ideal for making open melt sandwiches or heating pizzas.
The professional-grade cooking plates are covered with non-stick Quantanium™, to resist scratching and wear. The surface allows for cooking without oil or butter and is incredibly easy to clean.
The solid die-cast lock holds the top plate in a secure, upright position when loading and unloading the grill. Return the grill to the closed position, switch the lock to ‘Open Grill,’ and the unit conveniently folds out in a BBQ.
