Not a hard day today in fact I had a rewarding day handing out items to up-cycle then my husband returns home from the supermarket totally plastic free. My kids are supporting my journey to plastic free and one way came to light tonight when my 12 year old shows me his up-cycled the squash bottle with diluted new squash to put in the fridge.
Ice pops are back in for tomorrow after school and trifle has been eaten. The kids are getting used to homemade treats and my kitchen is becoming a social place where kids are cooking and discussing tomorrow treat ideas. The dinners are getting eaten and food waste is down.
I’ve started listing shopping ingredients and the difference in the costs, where I have brought them in the past and waiting to see where I buy them in the future.
My house is becoming organised and people are benefiting from it and I’m meeting people in the process.
I will keep going, I’ve had some great comments with ideas on Facebook but could you comment on my blog instead so others can see them. Plus follow by pressing the follow button.
Thanks
Tomorrow I clean out my black bag bin (general waste) it will be interesting to see what goes back in it over the next fortnight. Tomorrow it’s collected with 3 bags from 2 weeks, hopefully it will be less in two weeks time.
