New Year's Resolution...

This year my goal is to create less garbage.  Yep you heard me!  I read an aritcle in People Magazine about a family that could fit an entire year's worth of garbage in a quart size mason jar.  Now I am not going to be this extreme because let's face it I'm just not the extreme type but I am going to do better.  For instance, I use a lot of styrofoam plates!  I hate doing dishes so I use fake plates for most meals.  This has changed in the past few weeks.  I have started using our real dishes and I can count on 1 hand how many plates I have thrown in the garbage.  Now again I want to say that I'm not going to be extreme here and start bringing my own silverware to fast food restaurants but I am going to be a little better than I was last year!

I saw that family too. CRAZY. That's a great goal to have, altough they definately were extreme. Good job, hope it works out for you. We definately need to work on this too.
