First night away & Green


Taylor's Refresher has these Green Cups. We went there for lunch as part of our first night away from Victoria. The cup says "This cup is made from corn, environmentally sustainable, and 100% compostable." Greenware is the company, I guess and has a website at the bottom as "f-k.com". I thought I would post a picture to show you what the cup looked like after sitting in a hot car for 3 days. It's like it melted, where as other "plastic cups" have not melted in the hot car.

It always makes me feel good to see companies who are making the effort!

Corn plastic has a lower melting point than does normal plastic.

If you're reading for the first time, it may feel a bit like you've just walked into a conversation that has been going on for awhile.

So to catch you up...

Jennifer started this blog because she was going through the process of becoming more conscious of her lifestyle choices and had decided to "go green". As she talked to her friends she quickly realized that she was not the only one interested in making changes. The blog was born. We used this as a place to discuss things we've tried and to support each other in the journey.
