April is Earth Month! And we’re challenging ourselves – and you – to reduce waste and help our planet with the 30-Day #zerowastechallenge. With tips and guidelines inspired by Dr. Anita Vandyke’s incredible books #azerowastelife and #azerowastefamily, we’ll make living a greener life a little easier and a little more fun.
To start off, Apollo publicist ErinNicole did a Bag Audit. When you stop and think about how much stuff you carry around with you every day, you may realize – I don’t actually need this. Or this. Or that! We weight ourselves down, both physically and mentally, as we accumulate items because we think we need them or we simply like them. Take a look around and audit your belongings, whether they’re in your work bag, your closet, the trunk of your car, or your kitchen. Consider what you really need, what is just taking up space, and what you (and the environment) would be happier without.
We’ll see if ErinNicole can minimize her clutter at the end of thirty days. In the meantime, she’s challenging John Judge, Brian King, and Amanda Edwards!
Learn more about the challenge at the link in our bio and read A ZERO WASTE LIFE for ideas on how you can begin living a greener life. Then let us know if you join in and tag us as you post videos and challenge your friends!

Step into the Apollo Kitchen because today is #pubday for #awhisperofcardamom!!
Spice is the loud, bold, exuberant element in recipes, but when married with sugar, it creates a delicate fragrance, provides backbone to a dish, deepens a dessert’s allure—a flirtatious affair of inviting new flavors and tempting combinations. Dare to #bake beyond Western staples like cinnamon and vanilla! Sections such as Sweet & Warming, Vanilla is Not a Neutral, and Some Like It Hot teach you to incorporate exotic flavors like saffron, wattleseed, and tonka. Ford’s spice swaps, wheels, and explanations will enable any baker to try new combinations and create their own delights.

Our final Photography Month spotlight? People of the Pride Parade by Alyssa Blumstein!
This gorgeous, bright book honors the colorful celebrants of the New York City Pride March and Dyke March, capturing the faces that bring the rainbows and liveliness Pride shines with today. Through joyful portraits of two hundred LGBTQ+ community members and allies from New York City's WorldPride, this is a resplendent one-of-a-kind volume, a portal to the spirit, sequins, and sexual liberty of the weekend, a keepsake tribute to the power of love over hate, and a meaningful touchstone, immortalizing the effervescence, excitement, and positive energy of those who attend.
We're celebrating National Photography Month all month long and spotlighting the amazing photographers we work with! This week: Peter Bussian, of TRANS NEW YORK.
This visually stunning, landmark photography book, complete with thought-provoking and revealing interviews, honors the transgender community and the courage it takes to find oneself and defy societal norms. The vibrant, honest photographs -- taken on the streets of New York or in iconic places like Grand Central Station -- together with interviews create an unparalleled articulation of the expressions of sexuality, gender, and self that New York, in all of its beauty, honesty, and compassion, welcomes, as well as a compelling call for respect and acceptance.
