2019 Resolutions: Eat Organic Food, No Matter What
Today, my mother and my daughter were teasing me about not wanting to take home a package of flavored tea, because it wasn’t organic. It was not the first time I got the eyeroll when I read a label and declined to eat something. It was bothering me all night, and rather than staying annoyed, […]
