Boc'n Roll

                                                                                                                HI GUYS,

let me introduce you an ECOLOGICAL and reusable WRAPPER for sandwiches, baguettes, fruits, cookies and all kind of snacks which everybody has to have it!!!! :))

                                                                                          Boc'N Roll and Snack'N Go - your snacks always fresh and handy               

The MOST GREEN information is that it replaces throw-away wrappers - paper or plastic bags, aluminum foil etc. 
According to official web page, more than 1 000 000 Europeans already use Boc'n Roll and therefore
 it saved over 200 TONS of aluminum foil in 2011. 

                                                                                      It can be also a great gift for somebody! :)))

The Edible Garden

I am just still more and more curious about permaculture and urban gardening and this serie just came to me and would really like to share it with you.

The Edible Garden with Elys Fowler 
She decided to not to buy vegetables in shops for almost one year and to try to supply the family with veggies and fruits from her small garden. The project is a report of how she has made it:

Enjoy;)

There are also similar projects working with urban environment for people promoting sustainable regional agriculture, using empty spaces, building community gardens for locals. I know about some in Slovakia. Do you know any in your country?

Home-made Coconut Oil Deodorant

Have you ever tried to make your own home-made deo? 
What about trying this one?
Homemade Deodorant
¼ cup expeller-pressed coconut oil
¼ cup shea butter
¼ cup baking soda
¼ cup cornstarch or arrowroot powder
10 drops essential oil of your choice, optional
Over medium-low heat, melt the coconut oil and shea butter together and whisk in the remaining ingredients until smooth and uniform. Cool slightly and whisk in the essential oil of your choice, if desired.
Pour into a wide-mouthed container or a clean and empty deodorant container and smooth the top. Allow to cool in the fridge until solid before use. In the summer, store it in the fridge if your house stays so warm that the coconut oil won’t stay solid.
