Happy Earth Day 2023

Happy Earth Week! Or Earth Day or Earth Month. Yup, they’re all a thing, but if you’re a die hard, dark green eco-warrior like me you don’t care because every day is a celebration of the big blue and green mama. In this house it’s AEAYR (All Earth All Year Round), but this time of…
