We do our best to eat fairly healthfully, buying organic whenever possible. Earlier in the summer, my husband Josh returned from a grocery shopping trip. I asked, "did you buy the organic apples?" It seems that this made quite an impact on Annika, 4 years old. Here's the proof, in her artwork. She calls this series "Pesticide Face."

| "Guess he should have had the ORGANIC apple." |
 |
| "Notice that his face is all messed up, you see?" |
 |
| "You see, the pesticide messed up this guys FEET too!" |
 |
| "He has a CRAZY pesticide face, and eye, and hair, and nose, but his nails are nice." |
 |
| "This guy is messed up, but I gave him nice wings and earrings." |
In conclusion to this warning regarding the negative impact of pesticides on our health, I think it is important to mention that if you have already been affected by harsh chemicals, it's not too late; you can still make your nails pretty. And, wings help too.
