Saving Plastic

These look really quite useful and cool. Think of all the plastic we waste simply to carry our veggies around in the store and home. Lame! So here is a solution - even better than my mesh bags (I swear I am paying a few oz extra on my tomatos, but it is better than using plastic). Check these Produce Bags out at www. EcoBags.com

A Greener Christmas

So, still looking for those Christmas/Holiday cards? Well, both Amazon and Target are carrying some more reasonably priced recycled paper cards and holiday papers! Yeah! They have been way up there the past few years. Paper source had some too - but they were a tad pricey!

One ther tip - watch the labels - I gave up my clear plastic labels this year for handwriting on the addresses on my envelopes this year . . . . my hand still hurts!
