Green drinks and green drinks!

There are a couple of things that we wanted to tell you about.  Today's theme?  Green drinks.

Shiraleah Eco Green Dishware
First, a fun set of green cups, cocktail glasses, and sleek matching pitcher, made by Shiraleah Home Accessories.  They're green in color, and in composition.  Made from vegetable starch and other organic materials, these delightful beverage holders are biodegradable* (they're biodegradable in a biologically active environment, such as a compost pile or landfill; you don't have to worry about them breaking down in your dishwasher or during use!).  Not pictured are their classy matching martini and margarita glasses. You will notice in the picture above that you can purchase matching plates and bowls for an entire dining set. 

They're especially perfect for entertaining, but also make a thoughtful gift for a host or housewarming or wedding gift.  Whether the recipient is particularly environmentally conscious or not, they'll fall in love with the soothing green color, trendy shapes, functionality, and the fascinating fact of their biodegradability (a great conversation-starter!).  

In the age of throw-away goods, first it's important (paramount) to think about items that you purchase.  Do you really need it?  If yes, great!  And, when the goods have a built-in "contingency plan" for after you are through with them, even better!  That's one of the reasons the Shiraleah Home Accessories Eco Green dishware is so popular with us and you.  Stop in to 'g' to get a set today!





Second, a green event in the Cape Cod community to look forward to.  Cape Cod Green Drinks is part of the national "Green Drinks" movement, bringing environmentally conscious and sustainability-minded individuals together to network at fun and stimulating (and often educational) happy hour gatherings across Cape Cod. 

Tomorrow, September 29th from 6pm-8pm, Cape Cod Green Drinks is being held at our friend Chef Paul's Truffles and Catering.  His shop, cleverly called the Chocolate Peddler, is located at 2628 Main Street in Brewster.  he is known for his delicious and one-of-a-kind chocolate truffles, and will be serving them along with other delicious treats at the Green Drinks event.  We encourage you to go, meet some fun and interesting new people, and further the green movement and dialogue across the Cape!
