    Today was a travel day, two hours each way transporting service dogs in training.  I brought all my own snacks, all in re-usable containers!

    In planning our event, I was able to connect one vendor with another to work on utilizing a biodegradable cup option instead of plastic cups to cut down on single-use plastic!
