    I've been really surprised at how easy it has  been to cook a zero plastic waste meal.

    I have been using my new bamboo toothbrush for a week now. I'm all on board with it, but the family still needs some encouragement.

    Made some Homemade Natural Deoderant today to try to cut back on that plastic! Here is the recipe if anyone is interested in making some as well.

    YAY!! Plastic-free July. Currently trying to brainstorm ideas to encourage others outside of my organization to participate.  Also, I just ordered some shampoo, conditioner, and body bars to #giveupthebottle. So excited to challenge myself and my peers.
