Feeling arty?
Got a box/chest/old drawer in the attic/shed/junk room full of these.
Grandma’s kitchen utensils
Think outside the box. Try something arty/new/different…
Instead of buying Christmas presents; make your own.
Usually vitriolic, at times bellicose; I'm not here to be nice
A weekly challenge from Reduce Footprints blog. I try to participate weekly.
Each Friday, something to think about
A walk on the natural side each Sunday (or Monday...)
The Apothecary - A place to find natural products and remedies
The Green Ink Bottle - A repository for my quotes
So how have we gotten so far off course? When the label of ‘green’ was introduced, it was seen as a mission statement; something that would entitle the customer to some sense of comfort that they product they were supporting (which was usually more expensive) was working with the Earth’s best interests at heart. Instead we have simply completed a full consumerist revolution; the label has been taken, assigned a cultural identity and used to sell a piece of a lifestyle that is intended to speak more to your peers than to subsidize an environmental commitment.

Hey, that isn’t a box full of junk 🙂 I see cookie cutters, a flour sifter,a wooden mallet, a whisk and most of the items look like they’re stainless steel. And I also see and old fashioned hand beater, you could wrap that up as is and give it to me for Christmas and I’d be well pleased.

>Marie, quite agree, some of that old stuff is way better than the crap they offer today.

I’ll take the items Marie doesn’t want! I see a cheese grater and a juicer as well. These are things I wish I could buy or find for my kitchen.

>Lois, the best place to buy stuff is the secondhand shops.
