I am a huge fan of the 'I'm not a Plastic Bag' line (plastic is so 1990). And being aware of the health issues relating to plastic we use fabric reusable grocery bags, wrap left overs in wax paper, use glass to store leftovers, and brown paper lunch bags for the boys to store snacks in while out hiking or traveling, etc. I am happy with all of my eco-friendly decisions, except for one. The brown paper bag. What a waste!
1. Spend money on paper bags.
2. Stuff paper bag with wrapped food and/or fruit.
3. Eat contents paper bag.
4. Place wrinkled paper bag in recycling bin.
5. Spend more money on more paper bags.
DUH!
So I will now introduce: 'Eco-Brownsies'! (Yes, hand made by me). Fabric lunch/snack bags. Reusable. Washable. Fashionable. (Can be used for gift bags too!)
I don't know why I didn't think of using some of my creative abilities through out this long and extremely cold winter?!
Comments are so welcome!
