    I supported my local Mediterranean restaurant, Kaslik, today - delicious!  I think I got enough for four meals!  (Yeah, I know....styrofoam! Bleh!)

    Dear Earth,

    Thank you for all you have given us. Thank you for being beautiful, strong, resilient, and forgiving. Thank you for your abundance, of food, wildlife, nature, and opportunities.  

    I can tell you get mad at us sometimes, and we end up paying for the ways we have damaged you in our quest for expansion and money. You give us so much, and we aren’t always there for you - humans can be so inconsiderate!  Thank your for putting up with us!  

    All in all, though, we do love you, we do appreciate you, and I, for one, am very glad that this Earth is where I live.

      This hammock was one of the best things I have ever purchased! Going on 15 years of swinging in my backyard, and it IS quite delightful

      It is!   I've been seeing things in my own yard that I've never noticed before.
