I started out in front of my sewing machine using recycled fabric from a bought out wedding store. This will complete the step in getting rid of plastic bags. I need to mention that even the package is a re-usable bag with a drawstring too. We needed to think about packaging too. Go Whole Foods!! We can do this. NO MORE PLASTIC BAGS!!!!!

As for me, I’m composting as much as I can, even taking fruit/vegetable cores and peels home from work where I feed it to the rabbit (all the better to get a jump start on the composting “process”). Not quite hard core enough to ditch the wastebasket yet, but I will consider it…
