I just read this quote in Whole Living: Body and Soul, (a great magazine with tons of green and healthy living tips) and it really struck me. “People complain about the price of eggs that could stretch a week but don’t blink at paying $5 for a latte that lasts 10 minutes.” – Nicolette Hahn [...]

I’m a Green Motherf’er
