What Stinks? Crappy Natural Deodorants!

Well, helllllloooooo!  Yes, I am ashamed to say that I've been hiding under a rock and I haven't blogged in AGES!  Sorry all!  This is what happens when Vegan Fest, summer, work, yoga, and training for a marathon and triathlon will do to you.  With Mad City Vegan Fest quickly approaching, though, I can say all of us organizers will have much more free time!  Phew!

I know I haven't done food in a while, but I swear I'll get some things up here.  I recently took a trip to Portland, OR, so I have a special Portland edition that I am working on.  Look forward to that!  I took a few souveniers home with me, including a bunny, "herbivore" tattoo from Scapegoat Tattoos in the vegan mini-mall.  Oh, Portland, how I love thee!

I'm going to make this edition short and sweet, because it's late and I have raffle stuff to work on.  Before I go, though, I want to share with you a glorious product that I just recently purchased.  The heat is on!  For summer, that is.  If you sweat profusely like I do, you don't mess around with your deodorants.  I'm an extremely active person, especially in the summer months, so all the natural products that I've used up until now have been horrid.  Egh hem...Tom's Naturals.  I thought I had just about had it with all the natural stuff, until Courtney Mayhew (cue angel chimes), told me about Natural Grooming deodorant. Okay, okay, it's a men's deodorant, but you know what?...I don't freaking care!  I love this stuff!  I got the Forest scent, because it didn't smell as manly and I don't like heavily perfumed products.  I knew I had hit the jackpot when I went for a 6 mile run, biked over 15 miles and went to yoga and my underarms smelled like daisies.  Well, not quite, but at least I didn't smell like the inside of a gym bag.  This stuff is glorious!  If nothing is working for you, you must try this stuff!  You can find it here or you can just go to your co-op or Whole Foods, if you must.  I'm telling you, you won't regret it!
