I hardly know where to begin. My daughter, Lisa, and I took a little trip to Tulsa Tuesday and Wednesday. Beth Terry, author of “Plastic Free – How I Kicked the Plastic Habit and How You Can Too”, was speaking at the University of Tulsa and she had asked Lisa to speak with her. What…
My February Grocery Haul
Do you ever watch those grocery hauls on YouTube? Lisa told me about them and now I’m hooked. I don’t know why they are so fascinating to me. I guess I’m just nosy curious. I watch everything from vegans who shop exclusively at Whole Foods to those who buy a lot of processed foods from regular…
