Earth Day

Happy Earth Day Everyone!

Earth

I love this day of the year, when we get to celebrate our earth!

For the past few years we have participated in our town clean-up, and it is so surprising how much garbage collects. I can never understand people who litter/why they litter. Seriously, what is the point? What you get rid of your garbage a few minutes before you will finally see a garbage can? I was following behind a van on Sunday driving home from my favourite Yoga class, when all of a sudden they threw a candy wrapper out the window. Okay, that I really don’t get. You are in a vehicle, the garbage is not hurting you, just set it down and pick it up when you leave the vehicle! Let’s treat our earth with a bit of respect! I was so mad I wanted to honk at them, but didn’t really think that would get me anywhere, so I didn’t.

Your mission for this afternoon: Pick up a few pieces of garbage.

If everyone does it, then the world will be a cleaner place! I know you have all heard this before, so let’s finally do it!

Hyacinths

Some pictures of wonderful flowers, that the earth grew! One of my favourite flowers- Hyacinths. Can you smell them? This flower is seriously fragrant. I picked one this morning from our garden and put it in my office, when I got back from lunch the aroma was all over my office! Yummy! A free air freshener!
