Reducing our Carbon Footprints
My roses continue to "show" beautifully.
Maybe because the rest of the garden is put to bed, these last blooms are striking to me.
I'm trying to reduce my carbon footprint in small ways.
I am using my coffee grounds as mulch in the garden instead of throwing them out.
Does that count?

I bought a BOOGIE BOARD which is a small screen that I can write on. No more paper lists.
I got it at Staples and I love it.
I also love that you use a "pen" and write in your own script.
I bought the mozzarella stick strings in one big lump yesterday.
I don't need individually wrapped sticks and unwrapping them drives me nuts anyway.

I think we, collectively, as knitters reduce our carbon footprints by having hobbies like knitting that create clothing and gifts with our hands.
That counts right?
Do you take small steps for the planet Earth?

I can't believe you still have roses blooming. How lovely for November!

That said, i do a little home composting (veggies/fruits and newspapers) for my own gardens. I don't drink cofffee, and Dave likes instant, so I steal Mom's grounds for the gardens (they love it!)
I also plan my errands so I can either walk to them or do them enroute to/from work. And now I work from home a couple days a week, so I save gas that way.
I don't buy bottled water, if I need water on the go, I take a thermos.
And Dave is Master Fix-it....if he can fix it, we won't replace it (he's fixed my $7 toaster five times....it's going on 10 years old now... but he won't let it die!)
I love your roses! Nice job.
