The super secret your parents never wanted you to know... Shrinky Dinks can be made out of any plastic fruit or veggie container!!!!!  I just made my own awesome shrinky dink pendant. This is a super fun recycling project. Just take your old plastic veggie containers (berry and sprouts containers work great). Cut out a piece that will be flat, decorate it with permanant markers, punch a hole or two in it so you can hang it from something and show it off then pop it in a 250 degree oven for a few minutes. Keep an eye on it and smash it down with a spatula if it starts to curl up. 

How did I go 26 years without knowing this?! Shrinky dink paper costs a fortune and this is a good way to reuse and go from trash to treasure. Yay!

If you save up your berry containers we should get together and have a shrinky dink party. I love being such a dork :c)

Since it is summer and I am putting off working on my thesis at all costs I have been cooking and blogging like mad! Check my blog for some great vegan recipes that are tasty and easy, too. :c) http://blog.strawberryhedgehog.com

Some of the stuff I've made lately:
- Iced Turkish coffee
- fruits & nuts breakfast quinoa
- cherry-almond-apricot scones
- pistachio-rosewater green tea cake
... and more! :c)

This gal ordered some goodies from me a while back and I just received her feedback. It is always so nice to hear that things work well for people. I believe in my products so whole-heartedly and it is so reassuring to hear about it when they go over so well for my customers. :c) Hooray!

"I got my order a couple of days ago. I love everything I've tried. The body butter is heavenly. I have really dry skin and its just excellent stuff. It calms my skin down from itching, and leaves it silky smooth, and smelling pretty without smelling too strong either.  I love the soaps, they all smell so good. I tried the Grapefruit bergomot one first, its great. I've tried other natural soaps before and they tend to fall apart pretty quickly, yours hasn't. My favorite thing so far is the lavender face lotion. I've noticed that especially with this product and the lip balm, but really with everything I've tried; a little goes a long way.  My make-up goes on so smooth on top of it, and it smells good, its tingly refreshing, and not at all greasy. I've also tried a couple of lines of truly natural skin care, and I usually get smelly, chuncky, greasy mess of stuff. Your product is infinitely superior to what I've tried in the past. I'm really looking forward to the new totes and shirts coming out. I'll be visiting your site often. Thank you for all you do and the integrity that you do it with.
