We modified a recipe from Bless This Mess so it doesn’t require cast iron or butter and we really love…

Salt Container = Trash

Salt container = Trash. According to the How2Recycle label on my Morton’s Salt, it goes in the trash. It is coated paper so it’s not recyclable or compostable. Keep an eye out for the How2Recycle labels on your salt options and try to find one that is recyclable or compostable but still meets your nutritional…

Cleaned out my spice drawer! Most spices expire max 4 years and some sooner than that. Only vanilla extract and salt are infinite. Compost old spices and recycle or trash the packaging as appropriate. If you went all in on spices during covid, it’s been about 4 years since the height of covid and so…

Dryer Lint is Trash: It’s Mostly Plastic

Dryer Lint is Trash: It’s Mostly Plastic

Posted on January 23, 2025February 7, 2025Author TaylorPosted in TrashLeave a Reply

Dryer lint goes in the trash. Most of our fabric contains polyester, which is plastic, and therefore should not be put in compost systems and therefore used on plants and our food. Clean your lint trap before/after every load for higher efficiency and safer drying. #lint#dryerlint#trash#dontcompost#polyester#plastic#laundry#laundrytips
