Wrap It Up - Scrapbook Paper Refreshes Recycled Bottles

I used to scrub the dickens out of my bottles and jars which had the remains of their sticky labels so that I could re-use them like the good little recycler camper that I am. Then it hit me: DUH

Leave the label stickiness ON - WORK with it... cover it up with pretty paper. BOOM. Not bad. Less work. Who says recycling can't be pretty?

Zero Waste is a difficult thing to manage for some of us. Yet I try.

I think it's more than a trend. I think it's a sensitivity to a food security crisis that we have in our world. I don't like waste, particularly food waste. It's horrific that statistics suggest we have enough food to diminish world food insecurity, but due to politics, infrastructure issues and corporate policies, food isn't getting onto the tables of our neediest people. Whenever possible, I try to donate extra food and/or canned goods to our local meals program. If you haven't thought about it, that's okay, but maybe think about it now, and see if you, too, can give back to your local community's food programs. Just a little bit is still helpful.
