We buy and toss things so quickly, it shouldn’t be any wonder that our planet is so very unwell.

Cleaning Up My Makeup Mess with Joligrace
People often say to me in real life and in blog comments, “I don’t know how you do it all with two young kids at home, running a blog with daily posting, managing social media, nurturing both virtual and real life relationships and friendships, and keeping your house in order.” Well, let me make this clear, I don’t do it all.
