I’ve been reading a lot about chia seeds lately, you know, those black, tiny seeds used to grow hair on Obama’s head, fur on Garfield’s body and other crazy terra cotta creations known as Chia Pets.

In December, I subscribed to a service called CraveBox.  For only $10 a month, I get a box full of goodies delivered straight to my mailbox and it is jam packed with fun things to sample.
