Going (Slightly) Greener

I finally gave in. Some of my dear readers will take issue with some aspects of the Green Movement. But I finally caved. Granted, it's not much, but I hope it helps. They say every little bit does.

I finally started buying those recyclable grocery bags. You see them at grocery stores, Wal-Mart, etc. I've begun using them. I bought a bunch from different stores. I use different ones at different stores. For example, I will use the Wal-Mart bags at Tops, or the Wegman's bags at Wal-Mart. This way, they can't accuse me of stealing the bags. I also avoid being charged for them twice.

They're actually really convenient. The tough part,initially, was actually remembering them. But now, I keep a stash in my truck. Also, you kind of feel like a tool carrying them in the first couple times. Don't worry, that passes.

I'd recommend using these bags if they're available in your area.
