Earth Day is a special day on which events are held to help increase the awareness and appreciation of the Earth’s natural enviroment. Earth Day is a global event and is celebrated in more than 175 countries every year.

Earth Day celebrates the planet we live on and vows to make the earth a better place to live in. It helps to make us more earth conscious for all we have been given.

Mutts, my must read each and every day is in the Earth Day celebration mood as Mooch and Earl remind us of it. Living here in San Diego, there were lots of goings on over the weekend and even today to mark this day.

Think of all the wonderful thread that you use in your needlepoint that are made from silks, wools and cottons…where would be without them?

Many retailers offer a little something extra to help celebrate the day…such as a free reusable bag or a free refill on coffee with a reusable cup…now who among us doesn’t drink coffee?

I think that I will celebrate Earth Day by not driving anywhere, staying home and communing with nature…the cats, the plants and my stitching.

one of my favorite orchids full of new blooms!

and until next time…keep on stitching
