Thank you everyone for at least maknig an attempt to change from plastic to anything better & green. I started quite awhile back by giving up pop (soda), tooo much sugar in regular and poison in diet soda I couldn’t give myself 1 good reason to drink the stuff & all that plastic in the land fills. Suprisingly it was a very easy give up. I use leaves or litter to clean up my little dog’s poop, plenty of leaves to go around and the litter needs to be picked up too! We also grow our own catnip, my cats eat the cat nip right out of the containers re-used yogurt, ricotta, cottage cheese containers, just poke holes in the botton & I use the lids to catch the excess water, I keep a re-used container of fresh catnip outside for the stray cats too and the plastic berry containers are great for any kind of plant starters & they have holes already in them, can be used over & over I love to start a bunch of Sunflowers inside to give the birds an abundance of food instead of them digging up the individual seeds took me awhile to figure that one out & the Sunflowers look so pretty, good for the bees too! I’ve learned to use the seeds that I used to throw away from peppers, tomatoes, cantelopes, etc , makes an inexpensive garden & yummy home grown from your own back yard, no pesticides & it’s so nice to know where the food your eating is coming from & what’s not in it! Nothing like picking large red tomatoes, zuccinni, basil & red peppers, garlic & anything else you have growing that you like & stir frying them in a little olive oil and tossing them with some Angel Hair pasta & Peccorino Romano cheese talk about fresh from the garden, on your menu and so much fresher than a restaurant’s menu I had no clue until I started planting, I never knew there were Beautiful edible flowers on the zuccinni plants until I saw them at Whole Foods for $5 a flower & it dawned on me that I had a bunch of these zuccinni flowers in my back yard I started to eat these flowers straight from my garden, along with some Strawberries We pretty much share everything with my neighbors & the birds & there’s no plastic of any kind carrying the homegrown veggies & flowers from my yard to my kitchen & If my timing is good I can catch my neighbor walking back from the mailbox past my house and I give him handfulls of whatever he wants & his wife will call to thank me and it’s all just GREAT! This is the time of the year when she makes Paska bread and send her husband over with a warm loaf of Paska bread wrapped in a cotton kitchen towell, no plastic waste! Polish Hill, Pittsburgh, PA is where all this real love is being passed on No plastic love here!
