I’m in total agreement with you about the reusable stuff. I’ve even stopped using those wipes for cleaning counter-tops, dusting, etc. I just keep old T shirts for dusting, spritz with water & orange oil and i’m off and dusting.

I started a garden last year- tomatoes, strawberries, sweet potatoes, avocados, sea grapes, and a few herbs. Mu suggestion is to start with a few plants and just add to your collection slowly. That way it builds the habit rather than being “all at once” and more of a chore. For seed fruits, just save your seeds from the ones you buy at the grocery. For potatoes, save a few from the grocer and let them sprout, put in a bit of water, then when they root move them out to your garden. Gardening is another of my hobbies. I started a compost bin last year. That worked GREAT!!!

I grew up with a somewhat “hippie” mom. So I have cloth diapered my children and worked hard to use reusable everything. A big plus to reusing stuff is the quality is so much better. I would much rather use a dish towel to clean up a spill in my home rather than reaching for a paper towel.

This year I would like to begin to grow a ton of veggies in my new garden. I would like to have one that lasts all year long rather than just seasonal.

Well since I haven’t really made many real resolutions I guess I’ll resolve to floss on a regular basis. Glad to hear it wasn’t hard for you to keep it up that gives me some hope!
