Two of my closest friends just returned from two years away in the Peace Corps! I had the pleasure of picking them up at the airport and throwing them a small party over the weekend. I could not think of a better gift for one of my friends than the Koala SpiritHood. She LOVED it! They just don't have warm, soft, and cuddly things like that in Guyana! Here are a few pics of my friends in the hoods :)
Any of you that follow this blog know that I am a total brown bear in spirit. I am the proud owner of the original brown bear, half brown bear, and grizzly bear SpiritHoods... and of all the hoods I own, these are my favorites! It goes without saying that I am totally stocked about Bear Awareness Week! It is so awesome that SpiritHoods will donate $85 per brown bear or grizzly bear hood that is sold!

By cutting out meat once a week, we can improve our health, reduce our carbon footprint and lead the world in the race to reduce climate change.

Not only are her recipes cruelty-free, but they are also so healthy! No sugar, no salt, no oil.... just pure deliciousness! And guess what... Chef AJ also likes to get hoodie with it!!  Chef AJ's Lentil Tacos are the perfect way to begin an busy week! So easy and so yummy! This recipe comes from here book, Unprocessed.

Peta Bunny Collaboration SpiritHood Did you know that 30% of net profits from the Peta Bunny collaboration SpiritHood are donated to Peta? Not only is hood awesome, but buying it is also a good way to give back to the ethical treatment of animals! I am SERIOUSLY obsessed with the new SpiritHoods Kids Doodle Hoods! I have said it before and I will say it again... I wish I had more children in my life to get SpiritHoods for! Even better... can I be a kid so that I can fit in this amazing new hood? Doodle Hoods come in either the kids snow leopard or kids husky. They are the perfect way for a child to connect with their inner animal spirit and express their artistic creativity by designing their own SpiritHood liners!
