I even saved 5 lb flour and sugar bags and used them as gift favor carrier bags for my DIL's baby shower last year! I purhased a special can opener for the flip top cans, so that I will be able to repurpose them as gift containers. A friend of mine saves the International coffee flavor cans and I now have 2 boxes full ... they will be made into something to give at my church women's December meeting! When we go to the Farmer's produce market. we have fabric bags for our purchases. We reuse our plastic bags as garbage liners. I could go on and on, you got be started on a roll! ^o^ CM2CM2https://www.blogger.com/profile/01956592500661080855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8584369183974503343.post-84873141405573577062008-10-30T19:07:00.000-04:002008-10-30T19:07:00.000-04:00I'm back again - it's been a productive day.

We're doing our best to help planet Earth stay green by recycling cardboard, newspaper, paper, aluminum, plastics, and glass - both here and at work.
