This morning as Ted and I set out on the first day of our road trip, we decided to stop by Whole Foods to stock up on snacks for the road. We bought Fuji apples, bananas from EARTH University, a bag of organic granola from the bulk section, two bottles of green jasmine Tea’s Tea, [...]

I really, really hate spring. It all started several years ago when I was attending college in California’s San Joaquin Valley. My university was in Stockton, a city renowned for its many trees, and what do you know? I have tree allergies. I also have pollen allergies, though I didn’t know any of this back [...]
