One of the many ways we celebrated Earth Day here at GreenDaily was with a fantastic combination giveaway:

• The Sak Eco Harmony Dip Drawstring Bag -- made of 100% Bamboo and Recycled Cotton in hot caynne red
• The Unity Collection from Altru -- a collection of Altru home frangrance items, in the sensual Unity flavor
• Physicians Formula Organic wear® 100% Natural Origin Makeup-- a full collection of this new and incredible line of natural makeup!

There were loads of entries, but we could only pick one winner, Angie, who shared these Earth Day plans:

I have actually already started celebrating Earth Day! On Sunday, I attended Columbus, Ohio's Earth Day Celebration in Goodale Park by visiting all the many information tents and enjoying a vegan hot dog. Tomorrow, my hubby and I (he is taking the day off from work) are going to start the foundations of our new organic vegetable garden! I can't wait!

We hope she looks and feels awesome while working in her new garden and enjoying her eco-friendly prizes!

If you're a breastfeeding mama out there, or going to be in the near future, you're probably an expert on breast milk.

One of the biggest challenges is finding a convenient and healthy way to store it. The MilkBank is a new, clinically tested system that is proven to be superior to traditional storage bags and bottles.

Triple-vented, insulated bottles keep milk warm, even through longer feedings. Even better, they are easy to clean and guaranteed not to leak. Best of all, the entire MilkBank system -- including the packaging -- is free of lead, phthalates, PVC, and BPA.

The MilkBank system is sold exclusively at Babies R Us. But for one lucky reader, this week we're giving away a MilkBank Storage System Starter Kit!

The Starter Kit includes:

• vacuum pump
• 3-vacuum storage caps
• 2.5oz storage/feeding bottle
• two 5oz storage/feeding bottles
• outer insulating bottle with stage
• nipple and dome set
  

Want it all? You can have it all!

When it comes to yoga, we all have the best intentions. One thing I do to make it easier to make it to classes is keep my yoga bag by the door, ready to go with all of my gear -- mat, towel, water bottle, and an extra t-shirt, just in case.

"But what magical bag can hold all this?" You may ask. Why, the Yogoco yoga bag, of course!

It has two compartments -- one for your mat, and another one for whatever else you need. There's also an inside pocket to hold your keys, cell phone (turned off!) and money.

Besides being so functional, the bags are socially responsible, too. They're made from eco-friendly, recycled t-shirt scraps. Also? Incredibly cute!

Best of all, this week we're doing a three-way giveaway of a Yogoco bag in your choice of color and pattern! In addition to entering here, you can enter two more times, at sister sites That's Fit and StyleList!

Ready to OM in style? Here's how to enter:
