Thank you for sharing these precious cuties. I was wondering if burning a candle that has the RSPO logo on it but states “mixed” next to it and am not sure if that is still eco friendly.

Absolutely, thanks for appreciating them! The RSPO logo appears to be a certification that "a company adheres to the highest standards of ethics and sustainability for sourcing palm oil." Not sure about the "mixed" part. Sometimes we just do the best we can and I appreciate your attention to this! xx

I think I am getting more sensitive as I am get older and just feel guilt/shame. Even buying books, I think of the trees. 😔

Thank you, Sacha, I'm so glad this resonated. It truly was a transformative experience that I'm sure I'll be processing for a long time to come. So looking forward to tea time in Paris! Talk about joy, right?! xx

Dearest Kimberly - I'm so glad you got to have this magical experience with orangutans! You have a lovely and deep connection with pigs, pugs, and orangutans. Thank you for sharing your love with us. The white quick dry over shirt was genius! Wish I would have had one in Honduras when I went to the sloth sanctuary. The bugs there are intense!
