People shouldn't be wasting that much food. They should learn about portions etc. There are many ways to use up leftovers, including putting it in the freeezer and making a big pot of soup instead of throwing it away.

Just my opinion. Mom always said, "Don't put it on your plate if you're not going to eat it - you can always go back for more."

Seems to me composter would be of better use for vegetable peelings and tops, egg shells, banana skins, Saturday flowers, coffee grounds, some spoiled food etc. Otherwise, budget what you cook. We waste too much compared to other nations.

This past year my cleaning lady got me interested in recycling. I had tried it numerous times but always caved. I had a small kitchen trash can sitting in the garage. I brought it into the house and started dumping everything that was reclyclable into it. I found a dump site on the way to church every week (everything together - no separating). No extra gas and my garbage that goes to our condo dumpster is way less than half of what I had been dumping in there. I dare say that if everyone in our complex would do the same our monthly fee would go down. If they (condo board) would just give us a place to recycle right here it would be great, but somehow not enough people will apply pressure.

Goodwill is another place to find a goodie or two. I just picked up an amethyst black hob nailed vase that sets off my black dining table or the tansy green walls especially with white flowers.
I also found some wood pieces to use for diaramas!

I live in a small condo. Since I'm in a wheelchair things have to be very handy. One of the first things I did this year was to take the door off my bathroom. The door was only 4 feet from my bed anyway. If I want privacy - I close the bedroom door which is much easier the way things are situated. I don't have a problem with mold etc. I turn the fan on. I have a shower with a bench and not a bathtub. It doesn't bother me a bit. I dare say there are probably more germs on your shoes and on rugs than my very own toilet seat that no one else uses.

My microwave. and My personal chef that cooks my meals from fresh organic ingredients that I can zap for less than 2 min. At my age this is the best indulgence I have ever given myself.

I ordered a copy of Charlie Harper's book as soon as I saw it last week. Made in China, of course. The binding leaves a lot to be desired. The pictures and letter pages are really nice but could have been done so much better by a good printer! I would have loved to see the pictures or book even bigger. I know it would have been more expensive, but I sure was dissapointed in the quality. All in all, my grandbaby loves it! I guess that's what counts.
There is always duct tape (made in USA) I guess.
