My New Favorite Commenter already has a bouquet picked out for me, but if you’re still wondering what to send your sweetie for Valentine’s Day, the Boston Globe offers some eco-friendly options. The Sierra Club and GreenLAGirl have also put together lists.
And you’ll love my own "red-hot" ideas for a green holiday:
- Liz Lovely’s cookie samplers: An employee sent me some info and compliments (flattery will get you everywhere), but the company’s green commitment and inspiring story really hit my sweet spot.
- Green Knickers: I’ve long been a Green Knicker fan, but their Valentine special (fair-trade knickers + fair-trade chocolate) is a real kick in the pants.
- Local organic fruits and veggies: I can’t resist passing along this list of produce aphrodisiacs. I also can’t resist giggling at all the banana jokes coming to mind …
- CFL bulbs: Would "You light up my life" be too cheesy a line here?
