National Caramel Popcorn Day

Today is National Caramel Popcorn Day – so feel free to join in the CELEBRATION! (Samples on the back counter!) Some exciting April 6th trivia - Twinkies (so lovingly showcased in our upcoming feature movie Wall-E) hit the market 70 years ago today. Apparently the first Twinkies were banana filled.

And now for today's quote and eco-friendly tip:

Don't blow it - good planets are hard to find!

Tip #2: Save water to save money.

o Take shorter showers to reduce water use. This will lower your water and heating bills too.

o Install a low-flow showerhead. They don't cost much, and the water and energy savings can quickly pay back your investment.

o Make sure you have a faucet aerator on each faucet. These inexpensive appliances conserve heat and water, while keeping water pressure high.

o Plant drought-tolerant native plants in your garden. Many plants need minimal watering. Find out which occur naturally in your area.
