Posted by Ryan on August 17, 2010 at 10:54 am
Hey Sarah, good stuff! We use reusable bags at the grocery store–would love to try 3bbags!!
To be more organic, I have recently started eating road kill. Just kidding. Check out my wife’s blog on some of the things we have incorporated, as a family, to be more environmentally friendly as well as green. I’m the one not pictured. Here’s the link: http://pugethound.com/growingupgreen/
Posted by Shondra Walker on August 17, 2010 at 10:58 am
To live more organically, I have been using vinegar as a cleaning solution. Seems to work well so far! Awesome giveaway!
Posted by Dohna on August 17, 2010 at 3:51 pm
Hi Shondra- I have also been using vinegar as a replacement to fabric softener. I put about 1/2 cup in the washing machine. Our clothes come out so fresh and our towels feel so fluffy! My mom and my daughter-in-law, Jackie turned me on to it this summer.
Posted by Ryan on August 17, 2010 at 11:01 am

Posted by Monica on August 17, 2010 at 11:44 am

Posted by Monica on August 17, 2010 at 11:45 am

Posted by Monica on August 17, 2010 at 11:45 am
Malia did an AMAZING job in your video…she should be your permanent sidekick…GO MALIA!!!!
Posted by Monica on August 17, 2010 at 2:38 pm
So I think this change you have made in your lifestyle is great! I have noticed that benefits it has been making for me as well. Most are just little things, but I already am noticing the difference. The grapes in the freezer were a great idea and I passed it along to all of my co-workers in the library. It has become my favorite snack while watching Lost, and I dont feel guilty after for eating so many. Boberto LOVES them too!
Posted by Monica on August 17, 2010 at 2:43 pm
I haven’t got a chance to try the scrub you posted on here, but plan on it in the near future. I have noticed that I am buying more organic fruits and vegtables and not sooo much processed food. I actually have started to find a passion for cooking. I love going to the grocery store and finding fresh ingredients to make dinner, and I know someone else that appreciates this as well. 😉 Thanks for making me a little more aware of the stuff I have been putting in my body!
Posted by Monica on August 17, 2010 at 2:45 pm
People are totally going to think that I’m a crazy stalker(which I am). I just REALLY want to win, and I thought I should maybe come back and make some useful comments about how I really feel about you and your blog. I think its GREAT, and you’re AMAZING friend! hehe
Posted by Keven on August 17, 2010 at 2:49 pm
I loved the popcorn in a brown bag popping episode!!! i love popcorn, especially non-buttered, unsalted popcorn as a light snack at rehearsals but hated hauling out the air popper for a handful of popcorn. Thanks, Sarah!

Posted by Dohna on August 17, 2010 at 3:45 pm

I should win because I am sharing your blog with two of my friends =)
Posted by Dohna on August 17, 2010 at 3:59 pm
Sarah- since I have been reading your blog:
– I stopped buying bottled water
– I LOVE the popcorn microwaved in the brown paper bag
– I’m eating yummy frozen grapes instead of ice cream
– At the grocery store I’ve been putting my produce in my reusable bags….those free 3b bags sure would come in handy!
Posted by Dohna on August 17, 2010 at 4:02 pm
I want to go to my local farmer’s market now!
Posted by SM Walker on August 17, 2010 at 4:09 pm
crazy bunch of naturalists, for sure. I want to win the bags. I keep my reusable bags in my trunk, so I can always bring them into the store to use each time.
Posted by SM Walker on August 17, 2010 at 4:10 pm
If I win I will give you all my frozen grapes I’m keeping in the freezer for emergencies and such.
Posted by SM Walker on August 17, 2010 at 4:11 pm
I will buy reusable bags that SEW makes, for reals, lots of them, as I seem to always purchase SO much fresh produce each time I go to the store.
Posted by Monica on August 18, 2010 at 8:59 am
I was wondering if you have any restaurants that you choose to eat at since you started your new lifestyle? I know that when you go out to restaurants it is hard to find fresh and healthy things to eat on the menu. Is there particular restaurants you like to eat at, or have heard good things about, that you can recommend to your readers?
Posted by sarah on August 18, 2010 at 11:13 am
you fools are comment crazy!
Posted by Karina on August 18, 2010 at 11:53 am
Our family now recycles and I work at Kohls which was announced the second greenest retail chain in the nation!!!
thanks!
Posted by Stacey G on August 18, 2010 at 12:55 pm
Oh Monica- that is a great question! What is a good way to see if a restaurants uses organic fruits or veggies?
Posted by sarahgoesorganic on August 19, 2010 at 12:42 pm
Stacey,

It looks like I’m behind on trying to post the most comments. I have a recommendation for reusable grocery bags. We have been using the ones from Whole Foods for almost 4 years now, and we still have the same ones!! They are only $1 and if they break or wear out, Whole Foods will replace them.
Posted by Dohna on August 21, 2010 at 8:24 am
Is this my friend, Kathryn!!??
Posted by Kathryn on August 18, 2010 at 8:42 pm
So I could really use some reusable produce bags to go in them!
Posted by Monica on August 19, 2010 at 3:21 pm
You were talking a few days ago about what to drink? I bought some juice at Save Mart that is GREAT!!! It is called Simply Apple, and it has no water added and no preservatives. It is not made from organic apples but it is 100% pressed apple juice, not from a concentrate. They had other options too, such as Simply Orange or Simply Grapefruit. I thought this might be a good option to mention if you end up doing a video on drinks!! 🙂 You know I love my juice!
Posted by sarahgoesorganic on August 19, 2010 at 5:20 pm
thanks for the juice idea, Monica. I’m glad you bought the best option 🙂 I’ll have to try it.
Posted by Monica on August 19, 2010 at 3:24 pm
The idea of Whole Foods reusable bags made me think of another question…Imagine that! haha. I was wondering what places you like to shop at? I know in this small town you only have one option, but when you go to other towns have you found any great grocery stores you could recommend? I know Whole Foods has some really great stuff! Have you checked out any other options?!
Posted by Monica on August 19, 2010 at 3:27 pm
Sarah, you should do a video of you actually cooking a meal… whether it be breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Or maybe you could do a blog on each of those and give a couple of options of something quick and easy you like to make. or maybe an easier option and something more difficult. Just some ideas, I’m sure you have already thought of all these… I JUST REALLY WANT TO WIN THOSE BAGS!!!
Posted by elo on August 19, 2010 at 3:37 pm
Wow! everyone wants those bags!!! including me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:41 am
I think the person farthest away should win!
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:41 am
Did you see the homemade makeup in Ready Made? I’m gunna try it.
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:42 am
They use coconut oil for natural make up too.
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:43 am
Jerry has grown some awesome cucumbers in the garden. Do you know of any beauty treatments to use them for? I know people slice them and put them on their eyes but I don’t really know why. Do you?
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:45 am
I am going to look really young because I ate a lot of raw salmon sushi.

Why do some people go gluten free? I don’t get it.
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:47 am
I’m working on those reusable bags for the purse today! I’ll send you a pic when I get one done. think I may change the pattern though…too much folding over on your bag’s design.
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:48 am
I saw a lady at a baseball game using the green eos lip balm. I told her she had good taste.
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:49 am
Monica- Simply Apple Juice is sooooo good. Reminds me of the fresh pressed juice you get from Avila Barns. Now that is some natural food heaven…Avila Barns. You should do a vlog from there this fall, Sarah!
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:49 am
Your fingers are so long and slender in your videos. We were laughing at how you were holding the peach in one of your videos. We love our Sarah!
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:50 am
Sarah, Gma, your mom and I are going to have a booth at the famous Coalinga Craft Fair in December.
Come up with a name for us!
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:50 am
I was watching some You Tube videos on how to cut your hair and they were terrible. Yours are much easier to see and hear.
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:50 am
Teresa, I’m not going to stop commenting until you do.
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:51 am
Yes, your videos are so much better than so many of the others out there. there be some crazy people posting to youtube!
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:52 am
well, you have plans for today?
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:52 am
Cuz, I don’t!
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:53 am
Have you ever used a dehydrator? You might be able to make some yummy fruit leathers or dried fruit snacks with the fresh summer fruit. We used to have one and made some good stuff and beef jerky and turkey jerky too.
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:53 am
Actually, I think it might just be easier to go buy the bags…I need to take a shower.
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 8:54 am
i tried a dehydrator before, and it was not as great as I expected. that was years ago though, so maybe they are better now?
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:55 am
Sarah Eden you could be called the Four Trippers! Kidding of course. That should be fun.
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:56 am
I think the person with the closest birthday should win.
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:56 am
Go take a shower Sarah and let me keep commenting!
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 8:58 am
I saw a girl on UTube making a lip scrub with vaseline and sugar. Is petroleum jelly a bad choice? I know you have the unpetroluem right. What is that all about?
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 10:00 am
why would you need a lip scrub? that sounds painful…
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 10:00 am
FYI: there is a deal at 3B Bags right now. You buy three packs get the fourth free!
Posted by Sarah on August 20, 2010 at 10:01 am
do a blog on natural remedies for sunburn…we are going to the pool now, and I’ll probably forget to put sunscreen on again…
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 10:24 am
This situation has gotten out of control!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 10:25 am
I think Sarah is right! It might be easier to just buy the bags!
Posted by monica on August 20, 2010 at 10:26 am
Sarah and Theresa are trying to take advantage of me cause I’m at work!!

I found an organic store in Fresno on barstow that sounds kind of neat!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 12:09 pm
When is your birthday Theresa? Cause mine is coming up too!!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 12:11 pm
What exactly does organic mean? Can you please explain the difference between that and fresh?
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 12:12 pm
A video about sunburns would be awesome!! I get burnt all the time and I know you’ve been there so it would be good to know some natural treatments for it!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 12:14 pm
What does the 3b actually stand for in the title of the bags?
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 12:15 pm
I think I should win because I’m spending all my break time at work to respond to this because I think you’re amazing! 🙂
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 12:17 pm
Sorry I’ve been spelling your name wrong this whole time Teresa! Oops! How embarrassing :s
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 12:20 pm
If one more person orders a caramel frappuccino I might stab my eyes with a dull pencil! Is it possible to make them organic?
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 1:42 pm
I think you should have an area of your blog strictly for receipes! It might be fun if people could just post whatever receipes they have and would like to share!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 1:43 pm
I was wondering if you knew of any types of food that provide energy! I would like some kind of food that doesn’t want to make me take naps all day long!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 1:45 pm
When will we be seeing a video on coconut oil? That stuff did wonders for my hair and I am interested in other uses for it!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 1:48 pm
I know you are a big fan of coffee and I was wondering if you just stick to organic coffee or if you’ll drink any kind? If only organic, where do you find it?
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 1:50 pm
Why is it that organic stuff always seems to cost more?
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 1:51 pm
What is the point of pesticides if organic stuff is better for our bodies anyways!
Posted by Teresa on August 20, 2010 at 1:54 pm
Okay Monica, I give up! Enjoy the bags!
Posted by Monica on August 20, 2010 at 2:37 pm
