Fun at Natural Grocers

“Happy Earth Day,” the checkout girl chirped, “Here’s your free gift–a bag!” “It’s Earth Day?” my husband asked. “Yea,” I replied. ”Hey, didja know that the Earth Day co-founder killed and composted his girlfriend? And I always thought you weren’t supposed to put meat in the pile!” He didn’t really compost her as the headline asserts. [...]
