The average American family of four wastes 122 pounds of food every month or 1/3 of the groceries they buy. If you spend a few extra minutes a week planning your meals ahead of time, you can save food and money through smartly using leftovers.
First Family, for your collective greenness — the non-allergenic household, energy-efficient Prius, not to mention environmental platform — we would like to give you the world's most fabulous greenover. First, a vision of eco-friendly fashion designs for the entire family to wear to the Inaugural Ball, courtesy of CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund finalist John Patrick Organic, celeb-fave Doucette Duvall and Chicago designer Lara Miller. Then Jessica Alba's green interior designer Kari Whitman and Kelly LaPlante of Organic Interior Design unveil their green and gorgeous renderings of how they would makeover two rooms in the White House. Finally, celebrated chefs Dan Barber of Blue Hill restaurant and Jonathan Seningen of Washington, D.C.'s Hook uncover for your delectation their favorite healthy, sustainable dishes, including recipes, for the White House dinner table. Finally, we are sending you, dear Obamas — and we really are — a gift bag from Sprig, filled with green goodies ranging from eco-craft kits for the girls, organic throws and chocolates, and even a nifty folding bike that we hope no one fights over. May your days be green and bright!
