Won't Somebody Please Think of the Children?

This photo is courtesy Vickie Kendra, a teacher at Solon City Schools, and her students, who have been using some of our leftover "scrap" paper to make all sorts of cool stuff. Remember, we have a tooooon of scrap paper here at the Verde, so just get in contact with us at info@lusciousverde.com if your organization needs any delicious leftovers.

Head Count

A few Fridays ago, we were all having lunch as usual. At daily lunches at Luscious Verde, many topics come and go in conversation. Sometimes we talk about deep subjects like new Doritos flavors, and sometimes we debate the issues of the day, like "Is Sonic really deserving of the hype?"

A branch of conversation by a few of us guys about the inability to find proper-fitting adult hats gave Lindsay a brainstorm. Who, she wondered, has the biggest head at the lunch table? After a few minutes of measuring, we found out: it's me. I have the biggest head at Luscious Verde. This explains why even the "One Size Fits All" faux-cowboy hats at Target don't fit my enormous melon. Bummer.

The Holiday

Well, it's finally happened: we have received approval for this year's first holiday card. It seems like the perfect occasion to get in the holiday spirit, correct? Grab some egg nog, hang your stockings by the fire with care, and sing along with Bing and Dave.

Why Didn't Anyone Tell Us About This Sooner?

Ben and Jerry's does wedding cakes! Holy moley! I want to get married just so I can get my hands on one of these cakes. Well, on second thought...

Leanimal Planet

My love for Project Runway continues as I stumbled across Leanne Marshall’s new bridal collection. Her focus has always been to create a line of sustainable ready-to-wear bridal gowns and bridesmaid dresses. If you remember Leanimal’s trademark of using nature-inspired waves and pleats, you can see she has carried her unique style with this new collection. I would wear any of these little babies just out for coffee (classy coffee that is). I wonder if she'll have a trade-in policy: eight super-ugly bridesmaid dresses for one super awesome Leanimal? Congratulations again, Leanne, on sticking to a style that you love and not simply throwing your name on powdered blush and fingernail polish like another Project Runway winner. (We won’t mention any names.)
