I hope everyone will forgive the inconsistent postings, I’ve been busy with helping my daughter get ready for the twins and taking some time to spend with my 13 year old grandson, Stephen, while he still likes all of us. lol
Anyway, I have been planning Lisa’s baby shower, which takes place this Saturday. As I picked up the pretty little paper cake plates, I felt like a fraud. Here I am suggesting we stop using disposables and I’m about to buy some paper plates. So I made a compromise….paper not plastic and no styrofoam. I will do the best I can to not waste and make it easy at the same time. The shower is not at my house so I don’t have total control, but I think just the fact that we stop and think a minute before we buy can lessen the footprint we leave behind. I promised myself I would take this slow and not stress myself out over it and that’s what I do when I compromise.
My advice for today? Don’t let it become stressful, compromise and choose wisely. Recycle when you can and reuse, re use, reuse. My next few posts will be on reusing and repurposing. It’s going to be fun with pictures, tutorials and some great links. So I hope you keep on coming back.
Have a Good Green Day!!
