Earth Day!

So... I was going to write this great lil ditty about how we do our part to protect Mother Earth... but.. then I got lost in Laundryland. It's a terrible place I tell you! If you can avoid going there, I suggest that you do... at all costs! Tho, visiting Laundryland does make it considerably easier to not smell... and not be sunburnt! ;-)

I do want to take a bit to comment on ways that we do try to do our part to help the Earth.

• We turn off lights when we aren't in the room.
• We turn off the AC/heater when it's not needed.
• We try to buy produce that is locally grown when we can.
• We're starting a garden, and already have fruit trees and will be planting grapes and blueberries this weekend.
• We recycle everything that we can.
• We compost our kitchen scraps.
• Sam has a hybrid car.
• I don't drive unless I need to.
• We donate clothes to local thrift stores, or resell them so they can be reused.
• We don't use paper towels.
• I shred and use our "junk mail" as packing for our candle company.

Those are the ones that I can think of right now. I'm sure that we do more, but, I just can't think of them right now. I'm sure had I done this post when I had it on my mind, it would have been a more informative post! 

What do you do to help Mother Earth?
