Out of the mountain of goodies, I selected some that I found particularly useful and enjoyed. Here are my picks from the BlogHer giveaways.

Several years ago I started a little collection of reusable shopping bags to take to markets and grocery stores. The collection is mostly Trader Joe’s cotton bags, some large LL Bean and Land’s End totes and some medium bags about the size of a regular plastic grocery bags, as well as a couple string bags. I keep them folded up in the back of the car, ready to haul out when I hit the market. They are great, solid, reusable, and never wear out, but they all don’t fold and pack up well, plus my kids have played with the string bags until they’ve given out. I decided to look for something that would fit into my purse or diaper bag, handy for any time I needed it. Read more
