Good at funny phrases? Need a green baby gift for you or someone else? We've got a fun contest for you
Calling all punsters. We're partnering with Gwen Gardner at Little Chickie Wear in an effort to come up with the best green phrase to put on a onesie or toddler t-shirt. 

Just to get those brain cells moving, here are a few we invented all by ourselves:

• I'm the cream of the organic crop!
• Greenie in Training
• Growin� up Green.

Bet you can do better!

E-mail no more than five funny, silly, captivating sayings about eco, green, sustainable or organic to [email protected]. Please include:

• Your first and last name
• City, State (country if outside the U.S.)
• Telephone number

On November 18, the top three choices will be announced on www.littlechickiewear.com and www.celebrategreen.net  (In case of multiple submissions of the same idea, the first to email to arrive will be used.)

From November 18-December 15, you can vote for your favorites at both websites. The winner will be the saying receiving the most votes, and will be announced on December 18. The winner will receive an organic onesie or t-shirt*�your choice�with the clever saying printed on it and a copy of the season�s must-have book Celebrate Green! Creating Eco-Savvy Holidays, Celebrations and Traditions for the Whole Family.

Anyone can enter, so feel free to pass this on to everyone you know.

*The winner must agree to give permission to print the winning saying on additional items that may be sold at the discretion of Little Chickie Wear.

Yoohoo, we've still got chocolate
If you didn't pick up a copy of Celebrate Green! last week and with it your one cent Sjaacks box of organic truffles, you've got another chance this week. Order a book today and get chocolate for just a penny plus shipping. What a deal! Our book and tuffles. Save them both for gifts, that is...if you can keep from ripping into that package. This offer is good only until we run out, so jump in today.

Our bloggers rock!
When we had the idea of doing a blog tour instead of a live book tour, we hoped to find 25 bloggers interested in writing about Celebrate Green!. I still can't believe that we had 47 blog posts over two weeks.

But even more important and affirming than the quantity of posts was the quality. The reviewers showed a real understanding of our message and many talked about how they will be applying the ideas to their own celebrations. Reading these heartfelt reviews made me realize that all our efforts to bring the book to life were worth it. People like it, they really like it! And even better, it is making a difference.

We're planning another blog tour probably for early December. If you blog (or know of someone who does) and Celebrate Green! or our ideas could be a fit, please let us know. 

Let Celebrate Green! help raise money for your organization
If you are part of an organization with eco-friendly as part of its mission, we'd love for you to use Celebrate Green! to raise some $$$. Purchase the book from us at 40% off the cover price, sell it to your supporters at the full price with the difference going to your organization. There are no minimum orders so you can purchase a few and try the idea without keeping a large inventory. We love supporting great non-profits in this way. And remember, a portion of the proceeds from Celebrate Green! support Treeswing and Healthy Child Healthy World.
