Last week, The Fashionable Hostess and I
hosted a Delicious and Decadent party celebrating Earth Day!

I created a “green” menu and cooked all of the food
(every dish was literally green, including dessert!)
And, The Fashionable Hostess
complemented the healthy “green” food with an array of “green” eco-Friendly products.
