SaviSeeds and Green...s

So today's post is going to be pretty short but I though I'd just mention a few things going on in my life right now.

First off, I have discovered a new love..or at least a like. They are called SaviSeeds amd they basically taste and look like nuts, but they're seeds. The difference is that they have a lot more omega-3 in them and are just all around better for you. SaviSeeds are actually 'Sacha Inchi' seeds and they come in three flavours (so far). Ranking them in order of most liked to least liked would be: Karmalized (Caramel-covered. Kind of like beer nuts), Oh Natural (Natural with a bit of sea salt), and then Cocoa Kissed (Dark chocolate covered). Normally I would say the chocolate ones are my favourite because i love chocolate covered anything. The only thing with these is that the dark chocolate combined with the already not sweetness of the seeds, just makes it a bit too bitter. Needless to say they are all still amazing. You can get them in a 5oz pouch (Like me) or in a 1oz snack pack. Luckily for me I got two of them at the GreenLiving show in Toronto (which I will talk about later), and theyw ere onsale for $7 a 5oz pouch, or $10 for two 5oz pouches. Crazy right!? I almost didn't believe them! If you want to try them out check out their website here.

Speaking of organic things, this weekend was the annual GreenLiving Show in Toronto which showcases environmentally-friendly and fair-trade businesses and just plain people. It was set up at the Direct Energy Centre at the Exhibition Place and was host to hundreds of vendors. From Me-to-We merch to composting toilets, you could find anything and everything green here. Luckily I went on the Saturday which was so not coincidentally the day that the inaugural Canadian Environmental Media Awards (CEMA's) were held. They were co-hosted by Canadian actress Rachelle LeFevre (Off the Map, Twilight) a huge favourite of mine. Before I start talking too much about it I'm going to stop now and just say it was a lot of fun. Actually I was able to get a free ticket by bringing in an old electronic to recycle, pretty cool eh?
