SNAIL MAIL LOVE


See that? It's a stamp. When was the last time you had one of those on your desk? I have a fresh one from a dear friend. I held the envelope with respect and anticipation before I broke the seal and eased out its contents. Ahhh, what a treasure.

I miss snail mail.

CAN POLITICS BE TRULY GREEN?



Please click on the image to see it up close. Even if Nicanor Perlas is not your candidate, his knowledge of the environment and how it is related to everything will deepen your understanding of the world. So, if you are a true greenie and care about the future of our country, share this and show up.

WHITESPACE GREEN MARKET

The Whitespace Green Market started last December--a brainchild of owner Monique Villonco, with the help of daughter, Cris, and a handful of like-minded, strong-hearted women. I've only missed one market, but am back in the loop and shouting it out: THIS IS A GREAT MARKET! One doesn't get overwhelmed with too much stuff because the merchandise is carefully chosen. It's a great space, airconditioned, high ceilings, lots of light, (really clean and pretty bathrooms), and the food is great. Most of the products are green and earth-friendly, and more and more vendors are joining. Margarita Fores has her commissary in Whitespace, so she serves a delicious lunch buffet at a great price. This market happens every last Sunday of the month, so be there on February 28. It's a great place to meet up with friends and family. The market starts at around noon and ends at 7pm.


Fabulous T'nalak merchandise from TADECO.
LEYENDE: Local and organic health and beauty products.
A forever favorite: MESSY BESSY!
Ultra-soft, hand-stitched leather with recycled airplane tires for soles. CUTE & COMFY!
Natural, woven products. Very special.

Thanks to Girlie Rodis for the photos! See you at the Whitespace Market (2314 Chino Roces Ave, formerly Pasong Tamo Extension. Look for the green gate)!
