Bite: the Big Ones

04.17.2009

The Bite:
Over the last 3 months, we've filled you in on everything from green burials to eco-fied lubes. Some made you feel like pulling your hair out, and others made you rock the house. Here goes...

The Big One: 
The One You Loved:
Recession or not, you guys want new handbags, so it's no surprise this DIY way to turn old T-shirts into totes was the most popular tip. You're even craftier than we thought. Runner-up: The Bruery. Lushes!

The One We Loved:
We've been needing some serious heat therapy, so we're thankful for Wellness Bags. Honestly, we use this wrap, like, every day to relieve the tightness that comes from carrying the weight of the world. Runner-up: DJ Ref. Solar-powered music makes our heart sing.

The Best Spot to Score Late-Night Nosh:
The Foundry on Melrose. Sure it's eco, but live music, a cool vibe, and drink specials galore put it way over the top.

Cocktail Fact

The number of Chihuahuas insured by UK firm Sainsbury’s has risen 416% since 2006 - which they attribute to celebrities popularizing so-called handbag dogs.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 LA Biters actually did make a bag out of an old T-shirt, then we kept the weight of nine female lions in plastic bags outta the landfill.
