I’ve talked about Electrolux on this blog before… remember? Remember how I drooled over the red washer and dryer? I mean, that was a pretty sweet looking washer and dryer. Remember how I told you that it washed and dryed in 38 minutes? Remember how the thought of that seemed impossible and oh-so-lovely at the same time? It didn’t seem like it could get better, did it?

Think again. Because Electrolux just rolled out their eco-friendly washer and dryer in a new shade. Wait for it… KELLY GREEN. SEE?

Okay, it’s a bit of a pun on their relationship with the super amazing Kelly Ripa. But, guys, listen. That’s my favorite color in the whole world. I currently am writing this post while wearing green yoga pants and a green tshirt. Earlier, the shoes I had on were green as well. If I believed in socks in any temperature above 50 degrees, I’d be wearing green socks as well! Despite what Kermit said, it is easy being green.

And Electrolux wants to help you be green. Not just in color (though, wow, what a color) but in how you live your life when it comes to the environment. And right in time for Earth Day (April 22), Electrolux is helping raise awareness and simultaneously raise funds for Global Green USA. How so? Simply go to Electrolux, click on the Plant a Virtual Flower link and, very simply, plant a virtual flower. For every virtual flower planted, Electrolux will donate $1.00 to Global Green USA which helps support their healthy green schools initiative across the United States.

The best part? Everyone who plants a flower? Is eligible to win the Kelly Green washer and dryer combo. One winner will have the NEW washer and dryer of my dreams.

To sweeten the deal, Mom Central is giving you another chance to win the glorious, beautiful, amazingly green washer dryer set on their site. Simply visit Mom Central and tell them which flower you planted via the Electrolux site and then share a laundry trip that helps you save time and energy. Mom Central will pick one lucky winner from all eligible entries!

So, in short: enter over at Electrolux, enter over at Mom Central and don’t forget about Earth Day yourself. Do something green for your family and for our planet.
