This hand-held steam vacuum packs a powerful punch. The Vapamore MR-50 Hand Held Steamer has two modes of operation to tackle messes around the home: wet steam for deep stains and dry steam for general cleaning. Steam is a natural disinfectant to use in your home because it uses high temperatures to kill harmful bacteria ad microorganisms.
I have a newfound fascination with oysters. My obsession with these mysterious mollusks got kicked into high gear when a friend threw a dinner party featuring roasted oysters. The farmed Long Island Blue Points, purchased that morning at the fish market, were served hot in large bowls and we were given oyster knives to pry them open. It was a messy job, with the juice spilling in unintended places (my neighbor's pant leg, for instance), but the hard work of shucking made the oysters even more enjoyable.
NEW HAVEN, CT, January 26, 2010 – It was announced today that the most popular green wedding website, Green Bride Guide (www.GreenBrideGuide.com), has launched a “Green Wedding Experts†section to help couples make every aspect of their weddings more sustainable.

As a makeup artist I get the pleasure and honor of hanging out with the bride and those women closest to her on one of the most unique days of her life.

As Kate says in the green wedding tip of the week, flower petals are a beautiful, budget-conscious, and eco-friendly alternative to disposable aisle runners, and they can suit many different wedding styles. Have adorable flower girls sprinkle petals along the aisle during the ceremony for a romantic touch, or create a lush, gorgeous aisle with a heavy layer of petals.
