GREEN SPRING CLEANING!
03.28.12
By Sheryll Alexander
We love using green products in the kitchen and all around the house, especially for spring cleaning. This year, why not take a hands-on class in a private Laguna home with a mother of five who specializes in all things natural?
Chelle Goodfriend, whom we have known for years as a caring health educator and top notch herbalist, is also a clinical aromatherapist and owner of Gaia's Garden Bath & Botanica, which offers organic, handmade, pampering and nourishing soaps and body care goodies. Now she is bringing her vast knowledge of all things natural to these private classes.
So, on Apr. 4 from 7-9 p.m and for just $25, you get to spend time with this wonder woman learning how to make inexpensive and toxic-free cleaning products. During the class and using just a few simple ingredients, you will make:
· glass cleaner
· all-purpose anti-bacterial cleaner
· room deodorizers, air freshener
· cleanser (for tubs, showers, pots n pans)
· laundry detergent
· toilet cleaner
· furniture polish
· drain cleaner
Participants will leave with a full bottle of anti-bacterial cleaner to take home. To register online, visit here

Botox anyone? Orange County's Premier Cosmetic Surgeon Dr. Max Diamond has teamed up with Katsuya Restaurant in Laguna Beach for a "Beauty Rehab" party this evening, March 28th from 6 to 9 p.m.
Beauty Rehab is an opportunity to relax, enjoy a cocktail, eat some sushi, and hang out with your friends. Step behind the curtain for a private consult with Dr. Diamond and erase those crows feet and frown lines in minutes with the help of everyone's favorite wrinkle smoother.
Botox Parties are fast becoming a trend around Orange County as many people seek an easy and safe alternative to surgery.
