Reuse those plastic sheets. Plastic sheets seem to come out of office and school supplies cleaning. Sometimes they’re the covers on binded materials or they are sheet protectors. These are perfect to put under your oily and sticky things in the pantry or a cabinet. I use them under my olive oil, MCT and honey…

Read the How 2 Recycle labels on your items. You can probably recycle more than you are right now. Plastic boxes can be hard. I’m glad this one from an eye mask at Target was labeled. https://how2recycle.info #how2recycle #recyclemore #atxrecycles

Paper To-Go Containers
🔥 Got FirehouseSubs to-go containers? If they look like these: cardboard/egg carton type material and tear, they’re compostable. ✒️P.S. I’m not specifically calling out Firehouse Subs, this is just what keeps ending up on my porch. 🗑If the paper snags a bit like it’s stuck (modern butcher paper), it’s coated in plastic and should be…
Target Recycling Station
Here is the plastic bags/films/wraps station at Target. This bag station is near Guest Service where they take store returns, order pickups, etc. This photo is from May 31.

Creation Care Moment April 14, 2024
I got to share about reusables today during worship! My pastor is very supportive of creation care, of so many things really <3, and asked me to share each Sunday in April during Earth Month. The first week was on recycling and this second week was on reusables. I had a lot of demonstration items…
