ReUse, ReCycle

Okay, so I reuse paper towels!  But only the ones that I've used for keeping my lettuce.  (To make my lettuce last for a couple of weeks, I wash it, spin it, and lay it out on paper towels, roll it up and put it in a plastic grocery bag.)  After the lettuce is eaten, I lay out the paper towels on the counter to dry.  I then can reuse them...

I also rinse and reuse my Ziploc bags, but not if I've stored meats in them.  (My great Aunt Dot did this...My great Aunt Dot also used to save me her coupons.)

We recycle copy paper for the printer.  Tom brings home paper from the recycling box at work.  We print on the other side.  We have new paper for important school things that need to be turned in for a grade.
