First, getting back to composting with all my veggie and coffee waste. Then, trying to make sure we clean out our leftovers - DH isn't big on them and they tend to get pushed to the back of the fridge, out of sight out of mind. Thirdly, trying to get DH to carry a couple shopping bags in his car. That man brings more plastic bags into this house!<br /><br />I already have a bag! krisgray(at)yahoo(dot)comkrisgrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840128414499274110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6202334394202768670.post-45703773902677152012011-07-11T15:51:29.127-05:002011-07-11T15:51:29.127-05:00I have a small coffee roasting company and as well...I have a small coffee roasting company and as well as an Etsy shop, I make local deliveries around town...think milkman but caffeinated :-) I recently found tins with coffee valves in the bottom and now each customer has two assigned tins. They leave an empty out for me and I replace it with a new one. It's wonderfully paperless.

Of course I still have to go to the farmer's market and the grocery store which are conveniently within walking distance to my house and I commute to work via bus, foot and bike. So shopping bags like yours that can be tucked inside backpacks and purses are fantastic. Keep up the great work.

We don't use paper towels-LOVE those microfiber towels. I even made kitchen towels and dishrags out of the utility ones we bought at the box store with my sewing skills. We compost-planning a garden, recycle everything we can, and share our shredded documents (for identity theft protection) with the local animal shelter for bedding. They love us! The wild birds get cooked egg yolk treats when we are dieting, and we shop 'previously loved' first. Forget to take those forever bags into the stores sometimes, but getting better. New projects...let's see. Now adding hair clippings (from our own at home haircuts and the dog's at home grooming) to the composter for the added nitrogen.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05404596024721619417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6202334394202768670.post-4071914609698754322011-07-09T22:24:05.542-05:002011-07-09T22:24:05.542-05:00Hi,
