I'm not always the best...

I almost always have my jar available for drinks that I buy. I have saved a bunch of cups in the last year. I really need to get better at using them for take out food, or leftovers from restaraunts. I dont need to write much more...cause earlier today I read basically the same post over at 'enviromom'. So, I can just send you over there..........I have a link right here ---->
in my link section :)

Do you think taco bell would use a cloth bag and nondisposable container if I brought 1 thru the drive thru ? :)
Put my burrito in the jar please!

It's not just about Jars

I havent had a mocha in a week. I was hit by horrendous allergies , so I layed off the dairy for a bit. I've been using my jars for water, juice and sparkling water this week. I wanted to write about how thats just one thing that we can do to make a difference. Sometimes it seems like such a small thing. Just a small, tiny , holding action....with the hopes to raise awareness. I do a bunch of these little things. I need to remember also, to not just do my own thing and hope that people notice and think about 'why'... I need to share my information. Maybe ask people questions when they look at me weird cause I'm carrying a jar of brown stuff around. I could say...'its coffee, why do you think I use a jar?' or ' I've saved over 300 cups this year by bringing my own jars'....something.
Some other things I do to make a difference
edible landscaping (gardening)
ride my bike
reusable bags
personal growth
despair work
conscious shopping (only buy what I NEED)
yoga
cook my own food as much as possible

DId I forget anything?
to my 3 readers....:)
what are you doing?

mmmmmm

My mouth is watering for a toasted marshmellow mocha from unlimited coffee. I havent had a mocha in a few days. I'm not addicted, they just taste so good :)
Unlimited coffee is very jar friendly. I recently found out that there are some rules about putting drinks in 'outside containers'. Some places have refused my jar, some have offered to clean it out first ( those days when I am getting a refill :) , some make the drink in their paper/plastic cup and then pour it in to my jar --totally missing the point.
Anyway, my jar is labeled* and ready to go get filled!


* I like to write on my jar with a permanent marker, it eventually washes off. Today it is advertising my blog......"one jar at a time"
