Where, Oh, Where Did This Hippie Mom Fail Her Kids?

Eleven-year Old to Teen: You can't drive to school today because it's Earth Day.

Teen: So What? I'm driving.

Eleven-year Old: If you drive, I'll kill you.

Teen: Just for saying that, I'm driving TWICE around the block before I park the car.


Kids aside, this Hippie Mom will be doing her part on Earth Day. I won't be planting any trees, but I won't be destroying as many either. Instead of getting my Starbucks fix in their paper cups, I bought this:





Not A Paper Cup is ceramic with a silicone lid. And rest assured, while raising my kids I'll put it to good use by drinking lots of coffee. 

Irish coffee that is.

Earth Day and Nothing to Wear!

Like all of you, I’m big on Earth Day. I recycle when it’s convenient, I walk to work when it’s not raining or snowing or too hot or too cold or too windy or an allergy day or when I'm not too tired or drunk or PMSed out. And on this special day, I take extra care to wear organic apparel.

So I rifle through my closet, but there's a problem. It dawns on me that my outerwear is made from Teflon. That my innerwear is made from pesticide-laden cotton. And my shoes from dead cow.

OMG! WTF!

The only thing I have that’s natural is my birthday suit. So being big on Earth Day, I guess that'll have to do.

Good news is my accessories are made from recycled materials. And I’m all about coordination. So which one do you think would work best?



The juice box tote?



Or the Cambodian rice bag?
