BaaLLs continue to be a show stopper

BaaLLs caught another wave of craziness.  New year’s resolution combined with the bull dog determination to live a healthier and more responsible life; These reusable dryer balls are flying off the shelf.  We are struggling to keep these all natural  dryer balls in stock.

Not only do they eliminate the use of toxin laden dryer sheets but they reduce the drying time and wrinkles in clothes. And since they are reusable , it saves you money in the long run.

I love Chilewich mats

I am lazy and hate cleaning. Especially when you have a dog, tons of dirt comes into the house. Until I came across these Chilewich mats. So like most things at Goneshopping.ca, we love it so much that we decided to carry them on the site.

Avoid imitations as Chilewich is stylish and extremely durable – you cannot really compare it with the look a likes. The special weave is anti-bacterial. Can be used outside or inside. It literally catches all the dust and dirt when you walk in. Since we used it , it reduced the dirt that enters the house. I love it as a bath mat as well, it is anti-slip, drains the water  and no mold.

Evil eye ….

I have memories of my aunt visiting from Saudi Arabia and bringing back little trinkets of the evil eye. It always fascinated me. Aesthetically, the contrast of the blue and white was striking. Then when I started working I caught myself drawing an evil eye and sticking to the back of my chair when I felt like people were back stabbing me.

Suddenly in the past few years, the evil eye has become a fashion staple. From jewellery designers of Sydney Evan to Nicole Ritchie’s jewellery line Harlowe – I am seeing evil eyes everywhere,  Even Instyle Magazine is featuring it.

So we commissioned jewllery designer Kimberly Lang to come up with  Goneshopping’s bling bling version of the evil eye. What do you think?

Sterling silver encrusted with Swarovski crystals.

Rick Bayless loves bkr bottles – his fav green product

Rick Bayless, renowned chef, author, restauranteur and champion of sustainability says bkr is his fave green product!

During anexclusive interview with Rick Bayless 

Cookbook author, restauranteur and host of the PBS show Mexico: One Plate at a Time, Rick Bayless has never met a taco he couldn’t reinterpret. With his Frontera Farmer Foundation, the chef provides grants to small, sustainable farms in the Chicago area. His latest foray into food has him prepping to do a show called Cascabel at the Lookingglass Theater. It’s been described as “Chef du Soleil.” Here, he tells us about raising money for kid musicians and his current aversion to the news.

 

My favorite place in the world is… My backyard in Chicago.

 

If I could change the world, I would start with… [Changing] how people get their food.

 

 

 

My last random act of kindness was… Appearing on a local TV show where a kids’symphony was playing live to raise dollars to save their program. I volunteered to match every dollar they raised that day. The total ended up being $10,000.

 

 

My favorite green product is… My glass BKR water bottle (mybkr.com).

 

It would be easier to be green if only…The perceptions of the cost of being green were balanced with the overall big picture price.

 

Right now, I’m addicted to… Failblog.org, because it cracks me up.

 

Right now, I’m avoiding… The news.
