SPRING HAS ARRIVED!

Hey everyone.
I just wanted to thank all of you who email your questions/comments, and to all followers of the blog. Your emails pertaining to the blog and your suggestions for blogging topics are useful and much appreciated.

*Spring has arrived!!*

This is a reminder for all of you to check your furnace filters and change them.
Changing your filters will improve the air quality in your home and reduce dust/allergens and will result in a higher quality clean.

My recommendation for a high performance filter is: FILTRETE

3M canada filtrete filters include:

* Filtrete maximum Allergen reduction filter
* Filtrete Ultimate allergen reduction filter
* Filtrete Ultra allergen reduction filter
* Filtrete allergen reduction filter

Although they are more expensive than your regular filter brand...they are well worth the price and if you are an allergy sufferer..then this is definitely what you are looking for!!
If you are an enviropure customer and wish to get your hands on a great deal for your filtrete filter let us know.. you can purchase it from us!!

Also..Dream Green your spring clean with us this season and test the new product line.

Talk to you all soon.

13 Magical uses for CUCUMBERS!

This is really cool!!
K..so..what is a cucumber? Is it a fruit or a vegetable..a plant...?
Well...a cucumber is a fruit and it is 90% water, it contains enough sugar and vitamins to repair the human body from dehydration and starvation.

Here are 13 all natural and totally GREEN uses for cucumbers!! AMAZING!!

1) In just one cucumber you can find Vitamins B1,B2,B3,B5,B6, Folic acid, Vitamin C, Calcium, Iron, phosphorus, potassium and zinc!

2) Feeling tired in the afternoon? Rather than caffeine...eat a cucumber! cucumbers are an excellent source of B vitamins and carbohydrates and they provide that quick pick-me-up that can last for hours!

3) Tired of your bathroom mirror fogging up for hours after a shower? Rub a cucumber slice all over your mirror. It will eliminate the foggging and provide a soothing spa-like fragrance in the bathroom.

4) Cucumbers can be used as a natural pesticide. Place slices of cucumber in an aluminum tin...in the garden.. the chemical reaction between the aluminum and the cucumbers will cause a scent that will deter pests from ruining your plants. This is a scent undetectable by humans. but it works!

5) Cellulite/wrinkles: The phytochemicals in the cucumber cause the collagen in your skin to tighten firming up the outer layer of your skin.

6) Hangovers/headaches: After a night of drinking with the girls/(or boys)..eat a few cucumber slices before bed...the natural sugars, vitamins and electrolytes will replenish your body while you sleep keeping everything in equilibrium..and you can wake up headache free!

7) Binge cravings: Eat a cucumber ...they are loaded with water, vitamins, enough carbs to help curb your cravings for sugar.

8) Shoe polish: rub a slice onto your shoe..cucumbers have natural chemicals that leave a nice shine and repel water.

9) Rubbing a cucumber slice on a squeaky hinge will fix it!

10) No time for the spa? Slice an entire cucumber in a pot of boiling water and steam your face..the nutrients from the cucumber released with the steam of the water will soothe..refresh your face and reduce stress.

11) Bad breath: Get rid of the mints!! press a slice of cucumber to the roof of your mouth to get rid of bad breath, the phytochemicals kill bacteria in your mouth.

12) A green stainless steel cleaner!! Removes tarnish and brings back shine!

13) Magic eraser! You can use cucumbers with the skin on to erase pen marks/pencil/crayons off walls.
